That's kinda what I'm thinking too........the toddler stuff is ok but the Girls stuff really gets iffy and forget little boys..........BWAHAHAHAHA..
This is the type of thing I'm talking about.......
or this one.......I just LUV this one...look at the little bonnet.....
Too Funny.........
My son grew up in a theater atmosphere so he was used to wearing vintage for costuming..........but now that he's 34 he prefers jeans and T shirts..LOL
I find so many adorable little girls patterns..and am just curious as to where the cut off is on Mama dressing up her...
Does Anyone Dress their Children in Vintage
or Vintage Repro?
Just curious? I know that there are lots of people who adopt vintage as a lifestyle, but I'm curious if this extends to the children also.
I remembered this photo and just had to go dig it out........it was taken in 1955 and it's Me, My MOM, My Foster Sister ..... notice the difference in lengths, petticoats and shoes on the 3 different ages. I miss the time when clothing and behavior was "Age Appropriate"..LOL I was 7, my Mom...
LOL..........Very Interesting Discussion.
I was a Pre Teen in the 50's..........but I had older cousins.......and NONE of them (even the wilder ones) would let their slips show......Full or Straight.....if a girls slip was showing someone would gently remind them to pull it up by saying "It's...
I want to thank everyone for their input...........it gives me a new perspective.........cause like I said.........we get an idea in our head and that seems to be what sticks..........even if it's wrong. BWAHAHAHA
I wanted to blog this little lovely but need different concepts beside just my...
hmmmmmmmm.......veddy interesting..........it's amazing how we get a thought in our head and that's it..........yes it would make a lovely tunic over black crepe pajama pants.............or the olive green of the frogs.........
Sadly, I sell Vintage Stuff, but it's been kinda slow lately. But that's only a 3rd of our total income. We also have an Interior Plant Maintenance Business (which has decreased in size by 2/3 since 911), and the DH works for a Funeral Home. Which is part of the reason for our name...
Well it measures 39 inches from the neck to the hem, which is pretty short for either era.......although they didn't differ much from 38-45.....
Reckon it could be later.....it just doesn't look or feel War Years........but .... maybe......
That's why I'm asking.......it's an enigma for me...
I liked "There will be Blood" but it strayed so far from the original Sinclair Lewis story that it was hard to comprehend..........
We watched "Bucket List" the other night and it is probably the best movie that either Nicholson or Freeman ever did...........or maybe it's just the fact that...
I need some real help dating this Dress!
When I first got it I thought it was 40's. Then in looking as some late 30's patterns I decided it was late 30's, and then I changed my mind and decided it was early 40's........and now I just don't know.
The pleated sleeve caps could be either...
Have ya'll checked out the Pattern Wiki?
http://vintagepatterns.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page
There are more than 8000 patterns loaded so far and anyone can load their collections or whatever. All you have to do is register and then walk through the system. It's a great reference and research tool.
I saw this a couple of years ago and lost the bookmark............and it got sent to me again this morning and I thought I'd share............
A moving walk down memory lane.........have patience with the loading....and ignore the survey at the end..unless you just like surveys....LOL...
I was trying to formulate a response when I got to Diamondbacks post............and Georgie said it much better than I can.
A gentleman is a "gentle MAN"..............which has nothing to do with social or economic status...........it has to do with his attitude toward others.............
Just...
I'm so sorry..........there should be an easier way but sometimes there just isn't.
Good advice above...GET a GOOD attorney..............and make sure those boys know that this isn't about them and is not their fault.........love your kids and help them maintain respect for their mother...
I don't think it is an issue. Historically age has not been a factor in marriages or relationships. If two people relate to each other, who give a hairy rat's patoot what anyone else thinks?
My first husband was 6 1/2 years older (of course I was 16 and he was 21....LOL) and this one is 4...
