    Not able to dress vintage?

    I've worn my Danskos with vintage outfits, and while they don't look vintage, they still look really cute with them. Mine are a maryjane style, but I could see a lot of their shoes working. I also have a pair of Ecco mary janes with a small heel that look nice with my vintage. They're expensive...

    What is your favorite retro toy?

    my childhood favorite was My Little Pony. i had about 60 of them! not because i was spoiled, but because that was the ONLY thing i ever wanted for birthdays/christmas, so that's what everyone gave me :D

    Moving? maybe...

    i grew up in Anaheim and later lived in Long Beach, and i didn't find this to be the case at all. i always thought how interesting it was that most of my close friends lived about 45 minutes from me... and all of us in opposite directions! for the most part though, i've always tended to be...

    Care to join my no eating after 7 p.m. (EDIT) or 3 hours before bed thread?

    wheat and dairy both make me bloated and phlegmy! i'm pretty good about not eating dairy too often (i'm vegetarian but keep a vegan apartment) but i'm horribly addicted to wheat, even though it makes me feel awful. anyway... i've been trying not to eat late into the evening. being that i...

    Girdles, Corsets, and Underpinnings

    yep! that's the one! it doesn't look that smooth on me... the waist definitely has a much more sudden indentation, but since i'm using it to fit into certain skirts and dresses, it doesn't really matter.

    Girdles, Corsets, and Underpinnings

    heck if i know! lol my hips are pretty small (compared to my waist normally) so it probably goes there. i wear those shaper old-lady underwear with it. the top of the cincher comes up to my bra, and the bottom of it comes down over the undies. it's pretty smooth for me - no lines, i think...

    Girdles, Corsets, and Underpinnings

    just a report on my new Rago cincher - it is *fabulous*. due to being-on-vacation puffiness, my waist was at about 34 inches... my cinch brought it down to thirty!!! it's not too uncomfortable, even after a full day of wear involving dancing! i am such a happy customer! fyi, i bought a Size 30...

    Ladies Belts & Buckles: A Primer

    VB, thanks for all the work you've done!! it's so exciting to get to peek into your vintage catalogs and collections! my own belt collection is pretty pathetic. a lot of times i even use satin ribbon as a belt alternative, so i don't have much to offer to the thread.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    ooh, i'm excited to see Mama Mia! a couple days ago i took my friend's 11-year-old daughter to see Kit Kittredge: An American Girl. we both loved it! it was funny, sweet, and totally tear-jerking. we both really loved the costumes! there were lots of fun historical details thrown in. lots of...

    Bicycle Helmet?!

    the thing is, most of the safe cyclists don't get noticed. in portland i always hear about all these bad bicyclists from drivers... but these are the minority of wingnuts who will bike on the main thoroughfares rather than take the safer, less-trafficky bike boulevards like most of us do. most...

    DPD.... i love pattern books, don't you?! neat dress, too. RG1941... GREAT DEAL on the remix! and those chinese laundry ones are great, too. i have a pair of very similar vintage canvas playshoes (bought deadstock from remix about 8 years ago, haha)!

    Bicycle Helmet?!

    i'm a firm believer in brains over beauty. i ride everyday. and everyday i wear my helmet, vintage or not! i just cannot think of a good enough reason not to. all it takes is getting hit by one car, or falling the wrong way. i've had too many friends end up in the hospital for stuff that...
