    wave clips?

    Thanks! I sleep with them on my head!! lol. Really, Just like you see in the photo. They don't fall out because I lay on my right side and the clips are on my left. I don't put any net or cap on. I used to, but THAT would fall off and get twisted so i just let it air out naturally...

    why to mens shirts button opposite of womens?

    1.) Yes 2.) I sew all my own clothes and to this day I still don't know which side I'm "supposed" to put the buttons on (I always measure it out myself and never follow the pattern!) They go on whichever side "hangs" better. I bet most people in the world don't know this (or care)...

    wave clips?

    I use these every night. They are easy to use. Just fingerwave your wet hair, squeeze a bit between your fingers to make a ridge, then clip where the ridge is. It doesn't have to be a large or prominent ridge -- just enough to "mark" your hair. Put the wave clip on that ridge, but don't open...

    Glamour? Or Down To Earth Reality

    Since it's 2010 and not 1940, I mix over-the-top glamour with everyday housedresses and the like. Like today I have on a blue housedress from 1936 with VERY POOFY sleeves & peter pan collar, matching bold blue eyeshadow, and my platinum hair is done in a finger wave up front and pincurls at the...

    What do you listen on?

    Boring 'ole iPod. It's mobile, small, holds every song I own, and can be played privately through headphones (at work) or through any stereo I choose (usually the car stereo drinving to work.)

    The greatest OTR episodes of all time

    The Burns & Allen episode from 1942 where Rita Hayworth is a guest where she moves in down the street and Bill Goodwin tries to seduce her (because she says she can't get a date!) LOL. Never laughed so hard in my life.

    How to turn up the ends of my bob?

    Do you want it like this: If so, it needs to be cut on an angle and then blow-dried towards you face. A bit of gell will hold it in place.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE that pattern!! Whay aren't you *INSIDE* of it??? I finished this yesterday: It's cute, but not much different than Hollywood 763, which I've made 3 times before. This one I had to size up whereas HW 763 is perfect. Hmmmm, in the future I wonder which pattern...

    Ghost stories please..

    When I was a little kid I used to lay in my bed at night and watch a man limp up and down the hallway past my bedroom door. He had on brown chaps, a brown vest, really long brown hair and beard, a big brown cowboy hat, and sunglasses. He didn't come when it rained, though. I wasn't scared...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    On the plane coming home from England, as soon as I stepped on the plane, the steward asked me "Are you a Marilyn fan?" I said "She's alright, but I really like Jean Harlow!" He then went on to say "Didn't she die really young? Wasn't she only 26?" Me: "Yes, 26 on 1937!"

    Show us your vintage patterns!

    I bought this two weeks ago and it still hasn't arrived :( I *love* those seams! And I bought two from our very own lovely Lauren: I've been wanting to try scanties! And I might actually have a bathing suit this summer, providing this one hides the backside area appropriately ;)
