    How do you stay inspired during uninspiring times?

    I also understand what you mean in finding inspiration in architecture. I try to whenever I see something I love: In Bloomsburg, PA Vents at 30th Street Station, Philly Philly Art Museum Interior of 30th Street Station. Yes, every time I go there I pretend I am in a pre-Code movie for...

    How do you stay inspired during uninspiring times?

    Interesting. I've had this feeling, too. One time my husband and I were walking down 10th street in Philly. It was dark out so all the night lights were shining. My husband and I were walking behind a nicely dressed couple about our age. We were the only 4 people on the sidewalk and no cars...

    The Middy Thread

    I got my hair cut into a middy and it does not work for me. I am totally unhappy with it. My hair is so fine I simply do not have enough hair to create full curls. No matter what I do, I get feathers instead. Even pincurl wet sets brush right out into 80s rocker chick FEATHERS. I hate it so...

    Underarm Hygiene in the Golden Age?

    Ads I scanned from 1923: From 1918...not hair removal, but she looks pretty hairless under there ;) I have a huge collection of vintage magazines and the advertisements from the 1920s and 1930s were OBSESSED with not smelling bad. Everything from bad breath, feminine hygiene...

    How do you stay inspired during uninspiring times?

    My trigger is crap "mall clothes." Poorly designed pieces of garbage made to make *me* feel like *I* have the problem! HAHA! Nothing will put me in a worse mood than trying on mall clothes. I used to get "depressed" because I believed I had a mis-shaped body, but now I just get angry because...

    How do you stay inspired during uninspiring times?

    This is my attitude -- what I like is so much more interesting and AMAZING than those stupid "in your face" women's magazines crap that they don't even register on my radar. I just see something really lame and not part of my world. Not worth getting bent out of shape over. What we like is...

    What era of dress or style doyou prefer?

    1937-1941. Best era for dresses!! The skirt became A-line, the waist cinched in, and the sleeves and bodices became poofy greatness. Example: This era is incredibly flattering for my figure type and I tend to love the "over-the-top" feminine frills. They were a bit toned down from...

    Other than red lipstick

    I just bought a bunch of the new Beth Ditto collection from MAC. This is a collection I am actually excited about and love everything about it! I bought the "Dear Diary" lipstick and it is magnificent!!

    How do you stay inspired during uninspiring times?

    I like watching vintage beauty gurus on youtube and following them on Facebook. I keep my vintage inspiration from a very modern device. Sewing my own clothing keeps me inspired, too. I also like to read old magazines to immerse myself in the era I love. Old movies, too, along with the...

    Before and After?

    Thanks!! :D Yea -- I have to agree that I look better with the lipstick on and the hair done. I don't know what it is -- maybe the magic of vintage -- but I feel happier and it shows, making me look better. If that makes sense...lol Unfortunately, I got myself a "middy" haircut and it's...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I watched Ladies They Talk About on On Demand the other night. Better than I remembered :D The hubby is taking us to see Prometheus tomorrow afternoon. Not my type of movie, but I made him watch Barbara Stanwyck (which really isn't a chore for him since he has the hots for her...lol)

    Did I make a boo-boo by not buying this dress?

    Could that possibly be a home-made dress? (you said there was no tags). If so, it could be from any era. And like Miss Stella said -- regardless if it is vintage or not, if it doesn't fit or "feel right" on you than it's best to pass. I never buy anything that does not fit me or isn't my...

    What's your favorite Pomade?

    I always say -- makeup and hair products are very personal items. Stuff like this mostly comes about from trial and error (unfortunately!)

    What's your favorite Pomade?

    Layrite is worth it, though. I'm not made of money either but I LOVE this product and it lasts FOREVER. It smells like cotton candy, adds perfect shine to your hair, makes it - er - Lay Right (lol), and washes out (no nasty build up). I threw away all my other hair gels and pomades when I...
