Vintage Wedding Dresses
Vintage Betty--that dress is just insanely gorgeous--you can see the workmanship through and through. In fact all of the ladies here are simply gorgeous in their wedding dresses. I posted pictures of me in the late 30s vintage wedding dress on one of these wedding threads awhile back. I'm...- Miss Dottie

Petticoats and Crinolines.
I think that is the PERFECT crinoline--not too poufy and soft. Looks very wearable.- Miss Dottie

Petticoats and Crinolines.
I love those crinolines at petticoat junction. And I love the idea of the softer crinoline. I just bought a very basic crinoline at http://www.heyviv.com which I was thinking of adding some black lace trim to the bottom. But boy Goldwyn Girl, your petticoats are gorgeous!- Miss Dottie

Do you go Commando?
Only when sleeping do I go commando. My mother told me my lady parts needed to breathe. I used to giggle and think that if that were true I would never drowned while doing a handstand underwater!- Miss Dottie

Lady Day, I've said it before and I'll say it again--your sewing sassiness is wonderful! And I love this print in particular. Did you use the same pattern for this as you did the pretty poppy skirt? If so, what is it? Because I love the front pleat. But I have a sneaking suspicion you just...- Miss Dottie

Jeans?
I was just thinking today about buying a pair of jeans. I am thinking of going with the jeans from DaddyO's. I like the dark color of them. However, as soon as I buy a nice demin with a widge of lycra in them, I'm going to make a vintage pair based on that popular vintage repro pattern that...- Miss Dottie

OT:Regret Purchase?
Hoo boy--does this thread speak to me today! I have been on this buying frenzy and just bought a vintage suit just because. Not like I wear them for my job, but just in case I interview for this one position that I'm not sure I even want. Bah! But you never know when a nice vintage suit will...- Miss Dottie

any old-school housewives??
It's so funny. There are many books out there that talk about staying at home v. continuing to work. I'm very impressed with the number of SAHMs. In today's economy it's a very rare thing sadly. The whole thing is so personal and I think the most important thing is to not judge anyone's...- Miss Dottie

any old-school housewives??
;) This post is something that is on the tip of my thoughts recently. I'd like to be a stay at home mother/housewife, but I make more money than my husband, so it really wouldn't behoove me or our hopefully burgeoning family to give up being the bigger breadwinner. It's just a bummer...- Miss Dottie

Pregnancy when your "older"..
I think the toughest part about having babies in your forties is actually getting pregnant, so congrats to you mother. All of the reading that I've been doing shows that you shouldn't have any issues--although the chances of having twins goes up after 40. I suggest she check out sites like...- Miss Dottie

Thinking about a tattoo, but is it what good girls did in the 1940's?
Hmmm... I'm actually considering getting another tattoo in a month. But I've been thinking about this tattoo for a few years and still think its a wonderful beautiful tattoo. I want this: But I'm a tad nervous that I'm too curvy for it to look the way I think it should look. I think it...- Miss Dottie

Help me accessorize this Outfit!
Once again Ohairas--your outfits are to die for. I think my favorite is the sweater dress. But I do love a good sweater dress. I think black gloves would be nice with that. Very sophisticated! You have the sweetest figure! Sigh--just looking at you is giving my faith to keep on track...- Miss Dottie
