Everyday Bags
My current summer purse: My favorite winter purse (just cleaned and put away last weekend): For work, I use one of those terrible ballistic nylon suitcase-like trolley bags because my shoulders were hurting from the sling-type case I tried to use. But I would love to find something...- Pina Bridgette

Your signature cocktail.
My usual is vodka and tonic. Chopin Vodka is my favorite. It may be a lousy thing to do to good rum but last week I drank the last of my kosher for passover (made with sugar not hfcs) coke in a cuba libre.- Pina Bridgette

Golden Era Passtimes / Hobbies
Hobbies I have known (and for some been very bad at): coins, stamps, pottery, painting, photography, chess, bowling, dancing, baking, preserving, travel, crosswords, reading, etc. If I had outside space fulltime, I would love to garden. Currently, teaching myself to sew/quilt. Would love to knit...- Pina Bridgette

I went on a binge and am off to G Street for some fabrics and notions this morning (Well, I have a coupon! ). Also, I received an...- Pina Bridgette

show us your lippy
This thread is very bad for me. Everytime I check back, there is a new red I am dying to try. Count me in as one more for the MAC Russian Red: trying on my easter bonnet. My Besame samples came in yesterday and I was so excited, I tried them all on. At the same time. I didn't want to...- Pina Bridgette

Where did your user name come from??
When I was settin-up my cable tv service, they totally messed up my name... well, not totally but close, and since then I've adopted it as a sort of alter-ego: Miz Pina. Plus, it has kind of a nice ring to it.- Pina Bridgette

Show Us Your Purchases!
Can I confess? I'm not even sure I should be posting my non-$10 club purchase here but I must share my gorgeous new somewhat vintage-inspired shoes: I can't give you any further details (a handbag, too) because I might expire from the shame alone. And I mean to repent, I really do but...- Pina Bridgette

Show us your most precious vintage item .
Pink, I love your cookbooks. They look so well-loved.... the best kind! I just got one dated 1954 that I remember my mom cooking from called Anybody Can Cook by Gwen French (Grrr, my other sister got this lucky falling apart family prize). I've already made a few things from it. With luck, one...- Pina Bridgette

Vintage Bathing Suits
So many darling suits! I've had a Bondi Bathers Betty swimsuit (http://bondibathers.stores.yahoo.net/betty.html) for several seasons now and no matter how loose or tight I tie it, the knot bedevils my neck after a while. The Esther Williams suit seems to have a similar tie. How is the comfort of...- Pina Bridgette

You can never have too many reds, can you? To be sure, I have rarely met a red I didn't like but sadly, many of them do not do much for me. Judging by the pics in this thread, I need to spend some time exploring my local MAC because I love all of the reds that have been posted thus far. But...- Pina Bridgette
