    Moving to LA: yay or nay?

    North Hollywood was recommended to me a good place to live, as was Glendale and Pasadena, andBurbank anyone have any thoughts on these? The only thing I want is an art deco/vintage style apartment at a fairly resonable price.

    Today was my first " All on" vintage day.

    I have been wearing vintage dresses for a while, but today was my first day wearing the whole sha-bang. I wore a dark navy late 1930's dress with short sleeves with a white lace constrasting collar and french cuffs, a navy blue 1930's hat, brown 1930's lizard/leather dainty lace up shoes, a...

    Moving to LA: yay or nay?

    Not a rude question at all ;) My day job ( which I do about 5 hours a week) is working as a liason between very high end antique dealers and EBay. I appraise their items and give them an estimate on how much they might sell on Ebay for, list them, and then take a comission on the sales. I...

    Moving to LA: yay or nay?

    I grew up in Marin County, California, a small, snobby, upity community north of SF and am totally ready for a change. The area that I live in, there is absolutely nothing to do if you are young. I would go to SF but I have fibromyalgia, and the cold weather really makes it act up. So a couple...

    How to do this hairstyle?

    That's a great ad, what is the little boy doing? I like the hairstyle, but can't say I am a fan of the color. There is something about tortureing your hair with hydrogen peroxide that has never quite made sense to me.

    Vintage clothing: when is enough, enough?

    Yes...*stands up* My name is Nicoletta C, and I am a vintageholic.... I wonder if there is a 12 step program for recovering vingtageholics? My guess it would probably going shopping at the gap.

    Gloves: sizing, etiquette and all other stuff

    As for hats, I was talking to my parents asking what thier parents wore in the 1940's and 1950's. My dad said that my grandmother always wore gloves, but did not always wear a hat, he did say though that my grandfather always wore a hat, but he remembers his mother only wore hats to church...

    Gloves: sizing, etiquette and all other stuff

    Gloves and hats So often I see people dressed in vintage, but they forgo both gloves and hats. I know in the 1940's, it was unladylike to go without gloves, who wears gloves and a hat when they don a vintage dress? Or do you forgo them both?

    Vintage clothing: when is enough, enough?

    I think your quite correct. I have come to the point where vintage is the only thing I am thinking about and I am watching Ebay like a hawk and the Vintage store owners in the area not only know me by first name, they know my whole life story and can predict even before I can what I should buy...

    Vintage maternity and vintage clothes for kids

    No, I am not pregnant, but I am just wondering, was there such a thing as maternity back in the 1920's, 1930's and 1940's, or did people just wear bigger clothing? Those of you who dress in vintage and have been pregnant, what did you do? Did you buy bigger vintage clothing, or just go with...

    Vintage clothing: when is enough, enough?

    I have always been a vintage clothing fan, but with the discovery of cheap items of Ebay, my vintage clothing collection is growing by leaps and bounds. Also I have expanded my eras, once I was just 20's, but it slowly expanded into the 1930's, and Edwardian, then with the great style of the...

    Daisy, I love all of your dresses, how long have you been collecting?
  22. NicolettaRose

    Celluloid, Bakelite, Lucite and other vintage plastics

    But there was only two collections shown in that thread, I was wondering if any one has any that havn't been posted. Specifically looking for anyone who has any scotty pins/dog pins, I really want to get one of these.
