    Show us your hair do's....

    It's simple, really: I used the same setting for my Betty Grable bangs (the diagram is back there somewhere), and combed them forward and under. Since I have pin-straight hair, I left the sides alone, and reverse-rolled them. The bottom back half of my head was done in a vertical sponge roller...

    1960's Makeup and Hair

    :offtopic:I know what you mean! lol I'm very pale too, and I used to do the dark eye/pale lip look in high school: In retrospect, a teensy bit of lip colour wouldn't have gone amiss!

    1960's Makeup and Hair

    I like the smoky eye, but you're right - It's a daring look! I liked the 40's page too, though I wasn't impressed by the hair lol I'll have to bump the 40's makeup thread and post them there.

    $780 for an Indiana Jones Action Figure.....

    I think the Steve doll is way too beefy! My dad is a comic book and Sci-Fi fan - He has action figures of Wolverine, Cyclops, and Gambit; Miniature busts of Lon Chaney, Boris Karloff, and Bela Lugosi, all in character; A replica of the Thunderbird 2, with the Thunderbird 4 inside, and small...

    1960's Makeup and Hair

    My dad recently sent me an ebook of Mary Quant's Classic Make-up and Beauty. Mary Quant popularized the miniskirt, an iconic fashion that reached its zenith in the 1960's. She was also a talented make-up artist, creating many of the mod looks we love. Here are a few pages from the book, on...

    Show us your vintage patterns!

    You might lose some money if you post them all in a lot. What I would do is post the lot, but list individual prices aswell. This has always worked in my experience, and sometimes, I've ended up with more money than I would have gotten for the whole lot sold to one seller. Also try the...

    Lace it up - The true Corset thread

    That's stunning Miss Bella! Even more stunning is the price ;) I love husband and wife outfits like that. Ambiance always adds to a retail experience.

    Loungers' Pets

    Crickets and mealworms, yes. Roaches are difficult to find, and aren't usually recommended for beardies - But, some people feed theirs locusts and they are the picture of health. Uromastyx are wonderful lizards to keep for the squeamish- They are completely vegetarian. I feed my beardies...

    What's your favourite Red Hair colour?

    What is it about men? You change too much, they don't like it. You don't change at all, they want something different! lol If my guy didn't like my hair, I couldn't care less! He says my red hair is his favourite, which is quite nice, since I am naturally red. I just enhance my tones with...

    Favorite Vintage Perfumes

    "My Sin" is so amazing - Your hubby has good taste! My favourite is Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle. It's not vintage, but its a sweeter version of N°5, although still very floral. The difference is the orange top notes. As for vintage, Mitsouko is my favourite. It was Jean Harlow's perfume...

    Vintage eyebrow shapes

    Hi, I am your clone :) My right eyebrow is perfect - It is full and angular, with a great arch. My left one is too short, with a barren excuse for an arch and tail. I wax my crappy one with the same technique I use for my right, and it always comes out much thinner, albeit a similar shape...

    Attorneys and Barristers of the Lounge

    Thanks, carebear, for the perspective. Why Sheppard grabbed onto the car is a mystery - However, if he were caught on, say by his clothing, then Bryant may be at fault for continuing to drive. The prosecution could likely prove Bryant was aware of the cyclist attached to his car - It is...
