    The Sims 2 downloads?

    I just saw this thread and almost wee'd myself. :eek: Edit: Got lots of clothes, but I can't find any vintage hair! Any good sites, I'll post... So far, The Sims Resource is great, and registration is free, too.

    What's your favourite Red Hair colour?

    That is a very sensible way of explaining it. :) Her hair colour there should be in a colour group of its own! I want Kathryn Grayson's colour in Kiss Me, Kate: I'm having a lot of trouble getting the true-red out of my hair, in favour of copper. Currently, I have 3 colours, with 2...

    Freelance Hair/Makeup~Steps Towards?

    It used to be my dream to be a makeup artist and hairdresser, but after I started assisting in salons and beginning the training, I realized it was not at all what I thought it would be - Especially the colleagues. I backed out and found a career I'm better suited for! Lisa, I don't even live...

    winter vintage style vs. summer vintage style?

    I find it way easier to put together a vintage look in the summer. Its unfortunate because I love winter, and spend most of the year in it anyway. I love pussy-bow blouses, like the kind June Cleaver usually wears. Wool skirts and stockings are also a staple. My other go-to outfit...

    Do's and Don'ts in Fashion

    Low-rise jeans don't bother me too much, but that could be because I'm short (5'3"). I have had the tugging problem, and the only jeans that alleviate it are Zumiez jeans. I adore them, they are the only kind I wear. :) When I was in high school, it was all about the skinny jeans - the...

    How offten do you dress....

    I always dress vintage - almost always in repro clothing, but nonetheless, an authentic vintage look. Some of my friends ask me if I'm comfortable going somewhere like a job interview, or to school, dressed vintage - Honestly, it doesn't occur to me not to. It's how I am naturally inclined...

    Crashing the Gate

    I was thinking about where to go with the gang for New Years 2010, but I think I'll heed your advice instead. Besides, I can control/eliminate gatecrashers that way. I enjoy your posts, Paisley - You're very pragmatic!

    Do's and Don'ts in Fashion

    Bump! Let's get some more do's and don'ts happening! I grew up with a few: Don't wear navy blue with black; Don't wear knee high stockings with knee length skirts (yuck*yucky*); Don't show the toe seam of your stockings; Don't let your bra show under your top; Don't wear high heels with...

    Crashing the Gate

    I think the gatecrashing and sneaking-concessions, especially at the movies, is a vicious circle. Businesses must pay for what people steal, and that includes tickets and food they do not sell to gatecrashers. To cover these losses, they must hike up their prices. That makes people even more...

    Holy cow, LolitaHaze :eek: Hubba hubba! If that's a bad picture, I don't think my confidence could stand one of your good ones. Your hair is beautiful! I seldom see platinum hair that looks so healthy.

    Show Us Your Compacts . . .

    Goldfish- There is a neutral tone and a topaz tone that work amazingly together, and do a great 40's look. The green and blue are more 30's and 50's respectively. I love to use wild colours with a vintage look, it works better than one would think! Bombshell Becca- I got it from MAC. It...

    Show us your hair do's....

    Thanks a lot for this - Usually, when I get to the shampoo and start again stage, I do just that. Now I feel more confident. I'm going to try this out for when I go to see my fiancé this weekend. Exciting!

    Rank and Patches on Military Jackets - Might I Offend a Veteran?

    The opinions from military members (current and former) and civilians on what is or is not offensive, clearly are mixed. However I think it is safe to say that anyone wearing patches are not doing so with the intent to offend military personnel. They may be ignorant about the meaning, or...
