Allen Jenkins and Clara Bow.
Neither were pretentious and they'd both probably have me laughing my bum off, especially Clara with her off-colour humour! I think I would have felt very comfortable around both of them.
Ah, yes. Even though I grew up in the 80s, TARZAN was still on TV on Sunday afternoons and I'd be there watching it! (along with other B&W gems!) The nude scene was recently restored after being cut in the 30s to appease the censors! lol
Yea, I think the "beatnik" thing is people not knowing which decade to place me in! And the "beatnik" generation borrowed from the flappers, I'm sure!
*sigh*
For once, though, I'd like for someone to call me a flapper.
People think I'm an artist, too! Funny thing is, I can't draw for...
I recently started a new job in a school and one of the teachers there described my look as "part beatnik, part goth."
Now, I love this teacher, but NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH. Nothing against goths, but I don't see a bit of goth in my PINK puffy-sleeved tops, a-line skirts, and...

CLASSIC STYLE was in the front with "Featured Title" beneath it!
Anybody in the Philly area --
History Detectives is coming on on July 2nd at 9pm on WHYY 12. There were no details about the episode on my On Demand guide, but I'm hoping it's this one! I set a reminder.
I use all different brands.
Cover Girl for eyeliner and eyebrow pencil
Maybelline for mascara
Revlon for lipstick and nailpolish
When it comes to eyeshadow I buy any colour that catches my fancy, regardless of brand.
I think I've found the colours and brands that suit me just fine...
I'm the only one out of all my Friends who had a small wedding. The others went way out. That's not my style. Total guests: 5 people, 3 dogs. Total cost: $95. I think a few of my friends are actually a bit envious that my husband and I did it OUR way and didn't give in to what other family...
I don't believe in them.
I totally admit to liking New Kids On The Block, Milli Vanilli, "Achy Breaky Heart", and Stock/Aitken/Waterman's 1980s output! :)
And I'm proud.
When I went to go see The Cat's Meow (2002) in the theatre I saw the preview for The Importance Of Being Earnest (2002) and knew I had to go see it. I wouldn't have heard of it any other way.
So a few weeks later we went to see it. A LOT of people got up and walked out, but I enjoyed it...
I don't think I'd have the guts to go back in time and stay. I REALLY like modern conveniences, especially in the feminine area ;) I also like that I work and socialize with all kinds of people and no one bats an eyelash.
Like Lady Day, I prefer admiring from afar. And I 100% admit I...

Since I'm a movie and movie theatre nut, I'd ask her if she was a fan, too. I'd ask her how she reacted to her very first talkie and what she thought of the Production Code. I'd also like her to take me on a tour around town and show me where all the old theatres once stood.
But if she...
I hate following Miss Haze, but here's my first attempt at a mid-30s hairstyle kind of like Dolores del Rio's. Still need more practice -- my hair is soooo straight it's sinful. :(
That would be awesome if I found a 20s or 30s newspaper in my house or ANYWHERE! My grandmother gave me some newspapers from the 1910s and one from 1861! The 1861 one is very fragile, but it doesn't crumble to the touch -- yet.
In a roundabout way, Footlight Parade (1933) has to do with movies. And there's a Russian film called The Cigarette Girl From Mosselprom (1924) that is about the movies. Delightful film!
Did anyone say Sherlock, Jr. (1924)??
And I don't remember much about it, but didn't The Goldwyn...
I persued my husband via the Internet. I came home from work one day and saw 3 of his photos on my LJ Friends List because we were in communities together.
Right when I saw his photo I KNEW I was going to marry him. When I looked and saw that he lived in London (and I in NJ) that didn't...
