What we've lost since the Golden Era
SHANGAS: I collect vintage yearbooks and I can assure you that people in the 1930s had the same problems with "your/you're" "there/their/they're" and 's as they do today. When I saw it repeatedly in the signatures I found it to be endearing, actually.- Amy Jeanne

What we've lost since the Golden Era
I think today is a far better time. I'm sure if I dressed as if it were 1902 in 1937 I would have been sent to a mental institution lol- Amy Jeanne

Body Shape Questions
That's a good idea -- I've never been measured. I do have strap indentations, and my breasts spill out of the sides sometimes. I'm probably bigger and just don't want to admit it to myself. :( PS -- I wanted a breast reduction at 12, also. I sprouted overnight!! lol I hated them so much...- Amy Jeanne

Body Shape Questions
Big breasts are not fun and anyone who wants bigger is, frankly, nuts lol I have permanent indentations on my shoulders from having to wear a bra 24/7 (except in the shower, of course!), I can't go braless because they begin to hurt, blouses NEVER fit correctly, and those things are always...- Amy Jeanne

Body Shape Questions
My body issue is big breasts. I make blouses a little longer so they don't "ride up." I also end up adding just a bit more to the bust area. 36D :( I also dislike my hips. I'm a textbook hourglass! My waist is tiny compared to the two. High-waisted pants DO accentuate the waist and not...- Amy Jeanne

Are we LYING about our dresses???
Personally, I *like* it that I don't know the exact history behind most of my vintage things. Like Mojito said, imagination is an awesome thing! And NONE of my dresses have cone-shaped boobies lol Oh, yea, that's right. There was a time BEFORE WW2 that most people don't bother to know...- Amy Jeanne

Telling The Difference Between Eras?
deleteduser, You are so young -- you should take up sewing! I wish i did when I was your age. This way, you can MAKE all your own dresses from vintage patterns and you would know they would be authentically from the era. You can also choose whichever fabric/design you want. Not only...- Amy Jeanne

Miss USA Pageant?
I totally agree with this! It was so Dolly Parton-esque (whom i LOVED) and just tacky and huge and trashy all at the same time. Still got a soft spot in my heart for it today.- Amy Jeanne
