    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I have blue hair dye -- not sure if I want to do it :eek: I did it red RED instead. Maybe when this washes out. lol

    The Bickersons/Drene Time.

    I've listened to The Bickersons and I found them a little annoying :/ The wife was picking arguments over nothing, really. Married With Children, though, is funny. lol

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    Ladies show us your best.

    Everyone looks cute since I last checked this thread. Love all the dresses! I would post, but....meh. I'm nothing compared to everyone else and I only have an iPhone photo from the bathroom at my work lol :)

    How Would You Feel If...

    LD = Whuuuuut? What does you size have to do with anything? How weird to say that to someone. I would never. Actually, ever since I've become and admirer of vintage fashions I don't even really look at "size" anymore. Just the overall look and carriage of the wearer. Age is not a factor...

    lol Yes, she wasn't afraid to "tell it like it is!", which I do find both refreshing and funny at the same time.

    Vintage Exercise Techniques

    lol Sylvia cracks me up. She did a "health and beauty" column in Photoplay in the 1930s. Her advice is hilarious today!! I can't count how many times she has said that women should avoid developing muscles because it is "ugly" lol She was also a firm believer that squeezing yourself...

    Vintage Exercise Techniques

    Set hair and intense sweating/working out don't mix. You either have to put in the extra effort to set your hair more regularly or choose which one you find more important (working out or good hair!)

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    My heart just sank with sadness! It's time to put Orrin in my iPod, as I tend to prefer dance bands over swing bands. No idea why he isn't in it already and a shame it took his death to remind me. :(

    When can you call your style vintage and when not to?

    Both of you ladies have a point. I don't know the age of the OP, but when I was a teenager and even in my 20s it could be intimidating if you didn't follow subculture "rules" just right. Some people aren't "worldly wise" yet at that age. I know I certainly wasn't. By my later 20s I stopped...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I'm not dressed any differently from how I used to dress (which was every single day!), but it seems people here have forgotten my old vintage self and I am getting compliments left and right! And a few side-eyes lol From my neighbour I got "nice!" From my cubicle neightbour I got "You look...

    How Would You Feel If...

    I live near Chestnut Hill! Still, only a 10 or so minute drive from Center City :) My husband isn't really into the "vintage" shop, either. The ones in Philly aren't that great, though. We can go to NEW JERSEY! Good stuff and dirt cheap (no hipsters to price it up!) :D

    When can you call your style vintage and when not to?

    SOunds like me lol I was in high school int he early 90s when the "alternative" scene burst open. I remember other girls (and guys, too!) saying how "So-and-so isn't ________ enough because she/he likes _________ music band and wears ________ article of clothing!" I thought it was pretty...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    There's just something about those two I never really liked. I dunno. They are ok. I won't turn off a movie if Fred and/or Carole is in it, but they aren't my favourites. They are no Allen Jenkins and Jean Harlow!

    Wardrobe Collections - When to say when?

    Hehe! I think I'm on the opposite end of this spectrum! I *don't* like having a lot of clothes. If I have too many I will try everything on before I decide I will wear the thing I had on in the first place lol This happened to me when I was sewing up a storm a few years ago. I have...

    How Would You Feel If...

    I will not hesitate to talk to someone about vintage if I'm picking it up on my vintage-dar lol That is one area where I am not so shy. I remember going to Reading Air Show last year and all shyness was GONE. DISAPPEARED. Never felt so liberated, to be honest. I was talking to EVERYONE...

    When can you call your style vintage and when not to?

    I wear skinny jeans sometimes, which offends some girls here. Do I care? Not really. I'm confident in my vintageness. Never knew anyone would be "offended" because you don't do it 100% "right." From what I gather, we all like and appreciate all levels of vintageness. I know I do...

    When can you call your style vintage and when not to?

    What LD and PSG said. I'll wear what I like. Even in skinny jeans I am still "vintage" in spirit and lifestyle. I never thought of vintage "ending." It's ongoing for me and has been since I switched over in 1998 :D Like LD said, I am confident in my "vintageness" and (like PSG said) I...
