New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

[Maggie-Beth]

Hello,
My name is Karina. In case you’re wondering about my username, my grandmother was called Margaret Elizabeth, and she was often called Maggie-Beth so I chose to use her name.
I am very new to all things vintage, I have a lot to learn but I love learning so it's not a problem for me. I am trying to master pin curls at the moment.
I found the Fedora Lounge through a link on another vintage website. I spent 4 hours looking through the "show us your hairdo" thread and was amazed. It's taken me a while to join, but I'm finally here now.
I look forward to learning more and meeting everyone.

I posted this in the Observation Bar too, but thought I would introduce myself here aswell, I hope thats okay.

Did I violate some rule by posting in the "powder room"?

I want to make sure I am abiding by the rules. It is encouraging to see our young adults positively motivated by the Fedora Lounge.

[AudreyH]

I introduced myself in the powder room, but I'll introduce myself here as well.

My name is Hailey, I'm 13 turning 14 in Dec. I adore vintage. I try to dress vintage everyday unless my parents force me to wear a pair of jeans here and then. I dance ballet (This is my second year), I play the violin (This is my fifth year), I act (I'm trying to become an actress), and I model (Helps get noticed so it could help my acting ).

My favourite era would have to be the 50's, I like the 60's as well. My favourite actress of course would have to be Audrey Hepburn. Some other actresses that make my favourites are Leslie Caron, and Anne Hathaway. I plan on becoming an actress someday. I would love to bring class back to the screen! Well, I don't have much more to say. If anyone wants to know more go ahead and ask me.

Take care everyone!

Howdy Cowgirls!

Just wanted to introduce myself....Let's see....where to start? I think I first stumbled onto this site a couple years ago when i was doing pin curl research. Since then I have perused when in need of specific info on fashion, makeup, etc.
After "growing up and out" and becoming more and more frustrated that I could no longer fit into my vintage dresses, I started collecting vintage patterns and now I make my own darned clothes! I found a blurb about someone on the vintage pattern wiki, and discovered she was affiliated with this site and thought, "Okay, that's about the 8th time I have been directed to the Lounge....maybe I should just join!"
So here I be.
Hope everyone had a fabulous long weekend!!

YES! Be gone with you!

*just kidding*

You are just fine all we ask is you think before you post, and no posting in lingerie threads.

[Miss 1929]

I believe we know your espozo?

Hola! I'm from Santiago, Chile -- which in some ways has never left the 1940s -- and I've just arrived in L.A. to live for a year or so, before moving on to Austin, Texas. I'm enjoying the variety of people here, although I do miss my family and the food of my country (empanadas, pastel de choclo, charquican, cazuela, and on and on!).

My American husband is a vintage fanatic, but I myself have very few pieces of vintage clothing. We collect such odd things as antique absinthe spoons and glasses, Art Deco pipes, and vintage postcards of Chile. I look forward to knowing more about you!

Are you Mrs. Marc Chevalier?
Beinvenidos, y mucho gusto!

 

[Tatum]

Hi all, I've been stuck in the powder room...the girls are just so entertaining and sweet over there, I hadn't gotten around the rest of the lounge!

I'm just hanging around because I love the 30s-40s era, and it's nice to know that I'm not the only one, and it's great to be able to learn from everyone here!
