    The Pinup Thread

    :offtopic: She's sort of known as the grand old lady of stage acting in Denmark. Her most popular film is probably Mød mig på Cassiopeia ("Meet me on Cassiopeia), a comedy from 1951 in which she plays a Greek muse! I'd say she was famous for her sweetness, but there was definitely a...

    The Pinup Thread

    Cherry lips and Mary, you both look smashing! Cherry lips, you remind me of the actress Bodil Kjer. Here's what she looked like: Very cute pics. Where were they taken? I read in some brochure that there's a white painted bathing hotel from the 1920s in Malmö, but I've forgotten the...

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    I'm in love with the slightly fetish-y pompadour heel on the Minna Parikka shoes, particularly on the swan shoes. I read somewhere that she's inspired by 1930s fetish footwear with lots of buttons etc. Need to start saving up ... !

    Thanks for your sympathy, Deadpan Diva. It really sucks! And the pattern wasn't cheap, either. If this is a common problem, maybe we could set up a "dating/matchmaking service" for lost pattern parts?

    Show us your vintage patterns!

    I had planned to make this dress over the weekend, but I just realised there's a part missing ... Although the pattern was sold to me as complete (ages ago) :mad: I thought it wouldn't harm to ask if anyone owns this pattern too and would be willing to copy the back bodice for me? Mine is...

    Darhling should do _______ with her hair.

    Just wanted to add that permanent black hair dyes contain PPD which is TOXIC and highly allergenic! Better stay away from that stuff.

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    Ha, I know exactly what you mean lol There's this misconception that real socialists and feminist are supposed to look scruffy and anti-everything. I say sod it. It's only fun to surprise people and go against preconceived ideas and stereotypes.

    Yes, you just need to register first (it's free), then you can download the patterns in pdf format and print them. I made up the summer pyjamas negligee a while ago, very quick and easy. I just had a look at the sailor front pdf and I have to say it's not exactly self-explanatory, so...

    Mineral Make-UP

    I'm getting on very well with my T. LeClerc Rose Thé powder too! It's a soft peachy beige that tones down yellowish tones. It's really quite amazing, I rarely need to wear mineral make-up under it. The violet shade (Parme) looks spectacular too, but you probably need to be very pale to be able...

    What's your best beauty/household tip?

    If you've got some leftover wine that you don't want to drink for one reason or another, you can pour it in your bath. Wine is crammed with antioxidants and the acids will exfoliate your skin!
