    The Middy Thread

    I also have thick, straight hair, and I keep my Middy past my shoulders, so I can put in sky high rolls if I want. The way the tutorial is done, it is not a Middy as such; It's just the basic cut, which can be adapted to any length. Welcome to the Lounge! :)

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    Thanks, I will! :D They aren't so bad cause of the platform, but the heels alone measure a good 5 1/2 inches.

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    While perusing the mall, I happened upon Guess and bought these on an impulse. I paid... Well, a lot. I'm going to remove the small white straps over the vamp, because they make them a pain to put on. Guess has taken a vintage inspired angle in recent years, though not what you'd call...

    white cinch w/ gold interlock clasp- how do I find/make one?

    It has to be gold, eh? Vivien of Holloway has some nice ones, but the clasps appear to be silver. When I took art in high school, we used spray paints especially made for metal. I don't know how efficient an alternative this is, but it stays on and is an option in solving your problem. You...

    Do Ladies notice a Man's shoes?

    Some of it warrants a laugh (though the kind when you have to laugh, else you would cry): "His name says it all: Peck. Brief, sweet and straight to the point -- like a man should be. It’s homophonous for a chiseled chest, just two letters shy of full-blown manhood, and fitting for his only...

    Hair brushes

    For curly haired dames who are keeping their natural curl in, a wide tooth comb is really all you need. If you're blowing out or setting your hair, a boar bristle will do the job, but it'll require work!

    A Vintage Manifesto

    Reading this gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling. People don't understand how I can feel an affinity for an era I didn't live in... That's because they have to feel it to understand. :)

    Does vintage clothing attract a rude/violent response?

    OT: For sure - That college student would have been me lol Though there were far more semi, quasi, and complete drop-outs to contend with.

    Your favorite movie quotes

    It is indeed! I've always wondered if it has sugar on it at the time. I agree with Tomasso about Mae Clarke - Ann Sheridan definitely seems more apt to handle him lol

    Hair brushes

    If Biosilk doesn't manage your hair, maybe it's time to try Argan Oil. Moroccanoil (which I'm sure you've heard of) makes the most popular one, but there are alternatives out there for less money that are just as good. You could also try a serum, like Potion 9 or BedHead's After Party. These...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    Miss Golightly, those hats are dreamy :) You're going to look lovely in them. ThePowderKeg, I adore when people say you take them back in time - It's probably the most genuine comment any of us could receive.

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    Those sound beautiful! Have you posted pictures anywhere? :) I have a cloche I am determined to wear this winter, which shall be a departure for me!

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    Agreed! It's great when like-minds come together :) The Film Noir comments must have felt great too!

    Should TCM Air More Foreign Films?

    TCM won't be able to appeal to the "younger crowd" without completely changing the set-up of the channel. Classic films will come to mean 1975 and beyond... Part of me thinks that there must be a successor to Robert Osbourne out there, like there was a great one for Darrin on Bewitched...

    Do Ladies notice a Man's shoes?

    Ditto! If all men wore shoes like that, my answer to the original post would be a firm YES!

    May I borrow your hat blocks? Your hat?

    I stand corrected lol I can think of a ton of shoes I'd like to copy in one of those. If you owned one, and were very prolific with copying items, you'd probably get your moneys worth!

    Does vintage clothing attract a rude/violent response?

    I find most of the idle people making comments are teenage mall rats and college drop outs, so there's the age connection. You've got something they haven't, so they feel the need to take you down a peg... Though it backfires each time.

    Rue's Movie Picks

    Oooh this is one of my favourites, especially when Jean Arthur asks Lionel Barrymore what her grandmother was like, and he says "Look in the mirror." :) Great picks!
