    What's on Top - Bras, panties, garter belts, slips, & stockings

    I have that exact one, brand new, for sale on here. That /style/fit didn't work on me at all. It, ah..flattened me out..to put it crudely.

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    Magpye, I'm saddened to hear this too. It seems like things never change...it was like that when I was in high school (though I realize you're talking about college). *sighs* I just did what I wanted, wore what I felt like, and yes received negative comments, even from 'friends' - but, in the...

    Today I got from a shopkeeper 'you look like a 1950s girl.' And a man walking by me said 'now, that's a good look!' Flattering. I was wearing the below, mix of vintage and new. X BD New jacket, 50s cashmere sweater, 40s pin, 40s barrette.
