    *Obnoxious* Vintage Fashions you LOVE

    I say that 1937 to about 1941 is the "HATS GONE WILD" era! lol This is earlier than the time period (1885), but I couldn't resist. I would wear the %^%$^% out of this! It actually looks warm.

    Photoplays!

    I've got Red Headed Woman and The Office Wife. Both are magnificent! That's all the Photoplays I have. All my other kinds are the magazine!

    Show us your hair do's....

    Thanks everyone!!! :D Yep, I got thin hair. For YEARS my idea of a vintage hairstyle was a Louise Brooks bob with short Bettie bangs. Never did I realise that pincurls and patience are the magic ingredients to getting your hair to do what YOU want! I've also got more hair on the left...

    Can anyone tell who this is?

    It looks modern, but made to look old. The model/photo information should be inside the CD credits.

    What is your favorite retro look on a handsome man?

    Ever since I was little I've always liked the "rockabilly" look on guys. I had a SERIOUS CRUSH on the dude in the movie The Heavenly Kid lol I also had a thing for Lenny (from Lenny and Squiggy! lol) I still like it. Hmmmm....that's probably my fave still. Hawaiian/Bowling shirts...

    Tough act to follow!! But I did V rolls tonight for the first time in my life. This side was slightly better! The back. The pincurls from the day had been brushed out -- kinda. You can see the better roll! Ok, I'm not in the vintage hair elite club! I've only been "doing" my...

    Platinum hair question...

    Here's just my 2 cents and FYI... I *love* platinum hair! I just had mine dyed in September. I'm really a redhead, but my hair was dyed black when I had it done. The stylist was reluctant to do it, but I insisted. I had to sign a waiver and everything lol Even with black hairdye...

    *Obnoxious* Vintage Fashions you LOVE

    Here's something most people will probably find obnoxious, but I make no apologies in loving it: And I own a fur that looks so real it almost scares me a bit :eek: I don't wear it, though. No ocassion to.... I love outfits that get lost in their own frills. And I'm a sucker for...

    It's ashame there is such a divide. There's a big tattoo divide, too. Horrible, because I think those who do it to a "tee" look pretty fab! We all love vintage -- our different takes on it are what makes it more exciting to me [huh]

    Yea, purists don't like my stuff either. I make the cutest 1930s dresses from the most awesome patterns, but I'll make the dress in bat or tattoo material! lol I love it and wear this stuff on a daily basis. It's *me*

    The Golden Era's *ugliest* clothes

    There's not much I think is ugly, but these have always stood out: Dear Kay, WTH is on your head? That's too much even for *ME* Poor Ann Dvorak. Worst hairdo ever. I strongly dislike 40s-does-Victorian hairdos :eek: I don't know why they always insisted putting Aline MacMahon...

    Personal Rules for Vintage Shopping?

    Learn to sew and you won't have these worries ;) lol But seriously, when I used to buy my clothes I only bought something that made my heart sing. And if it was in my size. And if it was cheap and in good condition. I only had 4 authentic vintage dresses in my entire life! The rest, I...

    I'm anti-perm, too! Don't do it! All the perms I've ever had have been "poodle"-y, like C-dot said! Nothing makes better curls than pincurls, I've come to find out!
