    Just ordered these two cuties from Target: I'm really loving the top blue dress. I hope it fits, Isaac Mizrahi dresses from Target tend to fit me weird sometimes.

    Oil Cleansing Method

    What OCM mixtures do you ladies with adult acne prone skin use? I've been using Dr. Bronner's on my face, and although I like the results, it's drying my skin out. I think it's time to try the OCM.

    What is your favorite retro toy?

    Am I the only one who gets more excited about seeing the orginal box graphics than seeing the actual toy? I'm enjoying seeing the boxes with the toys!

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    Lizzie, How are the arch supports in these shoes? Also, how is the breathability? Sometimes I'm wary of shoes that have manmade insoles/foam supports because they tend to to make the breathability of the shoe not very good. I'm looking for a more polished workhorse-type shoe that I can...

    Show us your vintage home!

    I'm going to try finding a salvadged tin ceiling first. If I'm not lucky in that department, I'll probably go with one of the fake tin ceilings. Our ceilings are pretty high, no one would ever be able to tell the difference. I'm not a big fan of the wallpaper though, I've used it in the past...
