    How does a girl keep warm?

    FOUND: Handknit Sweater dress After spending a good half day one Sunday, I found the perfect sweater dress. If fits well, and is so comfy to wear. the stitching is downright teeny tiny, but it makes for a better drape, so I know I will never knit a dress like this but instead rely on...

    Classic wide leg pants?

    Oh, and I nearly forgot: Victoria Secret has some wide-legged cuffed pants that could possibly pass for vintage. Although sometimes the poses on these models don't highlight the potential vintage style of it...

    Classic wide leg pants?

    I just bought a pair of the sailor pants jeans and LOVE them from that eBay seller. Her eBay seller name is MissBombshell and I think her clothing is adorable! I'll post a picture of me in them when I upload the photos from my camera.

    It's curtains for you, CURTAINS! (a homemaking thread)

    Here are mine--very similiar to Miss. Hella Bells. I got the fabric at a store in Oakland, but I believe it is also available on www.reprodepot.com.

    Whoa! GOK! That is amazing! I actually had to do a double-take on the giraffe--it looked so real. And BTW, love the new photo--you hair looks divine! How do you get such height?

    Displaying your goods~

    Well, I have a hard time doing displays, but this is how I sort of set up my jewelry around my dresser on hooks I have to have it out or I'll forget about it and never wear it. I saw some nice branch-like holders at PB Teen that I would prefer to have. But the dresser was my Great Aunt Lil's...

    Vintage Hair Crisis

    Tottie, that sounds pretty cool, but I just can't see it in my head. Any way, you could post a picture of it? It too suffer from extremely unsocial hair that just has a hissy fit if I try to do anything remotely fashionable with it. Sigh!

    Thanks Honey Doll--that thing looks intense. I fear I may burn myself with it! Is it easy to use?

    Spoolies

    I must admit that I'm completely intrigued by Spoolies and am itching to get my hands on some, so please expect an email from me shortly Spooliegirl. I need to so something, because pincurls make me cry and hot-sticks made my hair look like I put my finger in a socket. In other words, it was...

    Tie Evolution

    Hmmm... Very cool! I've seen a lot of designers try to make skirts out of ties and a couple of bags, but these are quite clever! Thanks for sharing!

    Knitters, check this out!

    Hurrah for knitting! I must say I wish we could create an online vintage knitting group for our knitting FL'ers. But I did want to post about a great article I found on www.knitty.com that discusses vintage knitting patterns: http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEwinter06/FEATvintage.html Enjoy!

    Soaring Ebay Prices!

    Thanks Viviene for that great post. Wow! I had no idea it was getting so tough for sellers on eBay. I agree with you--this is one of the reasons other auction sites are popping up. But Ebay has such a strong brand identity and great selection that it has given them so much power in the end...

    Soaring Ebay Prices!

    Oh, and another site for auctions is: www.overstock.com. Some vintage stuff so take a peek!

    Soaring Ebay Prices!

    Exactly! eBay is so elusive sometimes--I keep hoping that this lull will mean that there will be an explosion of stuff on the site in January--perhaps people's new year resolutions to clean out their closets? We can only hope...

    Oops! Did that just come out of my mouth?!

    My parents were not keen on having their kids curse and I read far too many young adult books from the thirties and forties, so here are the rather old-fashion phrases that pepper my conversation without me even meaning to and tend to raise an eyebrow or two in conversation: - "Hot dog!" -...

    Soaring Ebay Prices!

    Thanks for the tip Viviene. I must admit--it seems like prices have been going up. But also the quantity of stuff is going down. I remember when it would take me hours to go through searches looking at the dresses and now I'm lucky if one page of stuff comes up. But that might be due to...

    Girdles, Corsets, and Underpinnings

    I've bought many Rago items from girdlebound.com--garter, waist cinchers and the full body girdles--they rule and are very comfortable as well.
