Feeling like a fraud?
I understand. I don't dress vintage all the time--perhaps once a month, but I love the history, the collectibles that go around it and I love the community around the Lounge too. I mean, look at that picture of me over to the left! Could I look more normal? But the other picture I used to have...- Miss Dottie

What's your favorite martini?
Make my martini dirty, like my mind. No no. That's not very lady like. I actually like a martini just a little dirty--with a twinkle of olive juice--more naughty than dirty. Still civilized. But I'm more of a gimlet girl quite honestly. Gimlets are a type of martini, yes?- Miss Dottie

Oh Nikki, it looks amazing! I'd heard about the repro dresses that J. Peterson had done, but I hadn't heard of this. And what is the Faviana dress?- Miss Dottie

eBay fit woes
It's true. But eBay is so tempting. All those dresses out there. So much potential.... But I have been relying more on local vintage sellers because I like supporting local businesses. And there is also the Alameda Flea Market, this huge monthly event that is right down the street from me.- Miss Dottie

Sheer Dresses and Blouses
Yes, I have the same problem right now. I bought the most darling sheer vintage dress last year and it is just sitting my closet reminding me how cute it is. Navy with pink flowers on it and am trying to find a navy slip for it. Along with my continuing search for navy shoes. Soon! Oh, and...- Miss Dottie

Incongruencies of body art?
Ah--perhaps it's because the piercing are part of you and to imagine you without them is well--just not you. I have two tattoos. One of the word "create" that is a reminder to always keep my creative juices flowing. And the other one is a picture of acorns. I also really like the idea of...- Miss Dottie

What Makes You Choose One Decade Over Another?
I wonder if that would happen in 60 years from now. I must admit that I look back on the eraly nineties with the grunge thing and just shudder. Or the Flashdance inspired ripped shirts. But like many people here have commented, I wear vintage clothing that suits my curvier figure. So I can't...- Miss Dottie

Plus Size Vintage
I think for the past couple of months, it has been tough to get vintage clothing in larger sizes due to Viva Las Vegas. I remember the prices going up a lot between February and March leading up the VLV. But they start coming down again in May.- Miss Dottie

Handsome Fellas!
Oooh! I ADORE Ron Livingston and I hear is so sweet in real life to boot! Just dreamy. And another favorite is Ryan Reynolds. Please take not Jessica Biel, you are just a rebound for him, so he can still fall into my waiting arms!- Miss Dottie

Fruit Fetish?
Oh, I adore peaches! They are divine! I always said I want to name my daughter Georgia and then get a lush peach tattoo as an emblem for her. I know, silly, but I love the idea.- Miss Dottie

Mineral Make-UP
Ah, but then I get my shirt collar pulled out from my making so wide to go over my head. And I'm just too chest for button-ups for the most part. Anyway, I found a bit of a secret that has been helping me with my problems with Bare Escentials and all powders. I have to exfoliate my face to...- Miss Dottie

eBay fit woes
It's true--foundation garments do make a huge difference. I just wish the vintage ones would have minimizers in it. Sigh! I'm too chesty for my own good sometimes!- Miss Dottie
