    Cardigans, cardigans, cardigans!

    I'll have to look into that Land's End one. I need a couple of good work black cardigans. It's tough to find a nice v-neck sweater that isn't cotton and won't fade to gray in a month. Oof!

    Questions About Day Dresses

    Boy Lady Day, those dresses are stunning. I love the yoke. How long does it take you to make a new dress?

    Vintage styles for short hair

    I must admit I'm a tad nervous--I've had at least shoulder length hair for awhile. BTW, I'm very sorry to hear about your stylist blues. I think going to a salon that caters to older women is a brilliant idea. The lady I go to is known for doing vintage styles, so I'm sure she's capable to...

    Vintage styles for short hair

    So, I managed to download some of the pictures from thehairstyler.com. It's an interesting site. It was the easiest way to try different hair colors and short cuts before officially going under the scissors. Here's the picture I used: And here is the most vintage cut that I was...

    Duds made from vintage linens?

    I too have a thing for vintage tablecloths. There is this terrific white elephant sale that the Oakland Museum runs every year and on the last day, everything is half off, so I get great prices on vintage tableclothes. So beautiful and so sturdy to boot!

    Everyday Bags

    This is my everyday bag and I LOVE it! It's lighter than leather and has a light interior, so I can find things easily. It's big enough to fit everything and has a zipper so everything doesn't do flying out if it gets knocked over. Those seatbelts are quite durable to boot!

    Oh, the Stigma of an Astigmatism. . .

    I think the light blue glasses would be perfect with your pretty blue eyes!

    Vintage A to Z

    Hi ladies, I thought you ladies might enjoy this ongoing fashion designer series that Lulu of Lulu's Vintage blog has been doing over the past couple of weeks. It's terrific and covers a lot of great designers! http://www.lulusvintage.com/ My favorite is Mary McCardell for M. And I love...

    Show us what you have Crafted!

    Wow! That is amazing! I'm very impressed with both of your sewing jobs! My sweetie just bought a 1957 station wagon and is looking to me to redo the upholstery or at least create some slipcovers. I can't lie--I'm a tad nervous about them. Yoinks!

    Oh, the Stigma of an Astigmatism. . .

    Hi Sari, It's a tough one--what color is your hair? If you are blonde, I would suggest the light blue ones. But it is such a tough call! You seriously might need to order a couple of them. I've made so many mistakes ordering glasses off of eBay. If you have a pair that you already like the...

    Vintage styles for short hair

    So, I did this yesterday and my friend and I spent probably two hours laughing ourselves silly over the photos that we uploaded. It was the best $15 I'd ever spent. But in the fooling around of it, we tried blonde hair and man, it was pretty cute actually! I'll see if I can upload any of...

    Who Here is Wearing their Spring Dresses this Weekend??

    Absolutely! I'm going to my local tiki bar kitted out to the max! Hoorah for tiki drinks. My favorite is the missionary downfall. So nice, yet so naughty!

    Fashion with Aunt Flow

    I hope you get to the bottom of your problem. Please discuss fibroids with your doctor. It started with an annual OBGYN appointment and my doc telling me that my uterus felt "enlarged"--usually a sign of fibroids along with painful bloody periods. Reproductive issues are intense to say the...

    What to do

    Gotta love Jane in a snood. Actually what cheered me up the most was watching that Daria episode! And getting 8 hours of sleep. But I am still contemplating the tattoo...

    What to do

    Now ladies, I'm normally rather proud of having more curves than Lombard Street, but there are days when you just feel a bit blah about one's body. Hair just a bit mousier than normal, a few pimples that erupted on the wrong day, clothing just not fitting as prettily as you'd like them to, and...

    Incongruencies of body art?

    That was the most delightful 20 minutes of my day. Makes me want to get a tattoo of Daria now!;)
