i can't think of any movies that have given me nightmares. however, i'm currently getting over a particularly nasty virus, and had a weekend of high fevers and hallucinations. i had spent all my time watching all three seasons of Arrested Development, and so the entire Bluth family showed up in...
also, thanks for bumping the thread, snookie, and for posting the original scans!
i have a '44 montgomery wards catalog i'm dying to scan. if/when that ever happens, i'll post the fabric pages here!
you're welcome, and thank you! i bought it in poor condition in 2000, and am dreading the day it finally gives out. it's nearly a decade older now, than it was when i first bought it! i hope it lasts until i'm a good enough sewer to use it as a pattern when it finally gives out - then i can make...
thank you!! i'm actually from southern california. i originally started saying "hella" because it was funny and it bugged my friends, and then it stuck. i'lve always thought you look familiar too, though...
yay, you posted the dress, pink! it looks great! and of course i'm in love with your shoes.
i have got to be the most unphotogenic person ever, as is witnessed here. LOOK AT MY CLOTHES, NOT ME!!!
today i wore:
- early 1940s wrap housedress (it's about to fall apart any second :( )
-...
ok, so of course i got NO good pictures of the second hairdo/hair-fix! but here is what it looked like for the first half of the day:
that front roll was tricky as hell - my bangs are growing out, so half the hair it's made out of is about half the length of the rest of it. once it's grown...
pink, you look cute! i love the way rolls look with a bleached streak. apparently that was a schoolgirl fad in the 40s.
hopefully i'll post pics later... i've gone through two hairstyles today! the first one ate it after about 5 hours, so i switched it up (in the school restroom, with two...
you name it, i've majored in it!
i took early childhood education classes early in college. i've taught preschool, daycare, worked in a children's bookstore, and nannied. so i've used that. my bachelor's degree is in women's studies, which i've never used in a career. i'm currently working...
penny, i have a pair of vintage pants with the same problem! they're such a cute pattern, but the crotch is SO LONG. and i'm totally used to the longness of 40s crotches, but these are ridiculous! i wonder if they were made from that pattern! lol
wow, i think she looks great! she does look a little stiff, but what is she? 17?
yeah, i'm feeling old too. i remember being a freshman in high school and crying at lunch when i found out kurt cobain had died.
it's good that there are alternatives! i considered doing more selling on ebay, but i hate how much time i put into stuff and the unpredictability of my selling prices. the new changes beat the final nail into my consideration. i was selling in a co-op shop and now i'm doing a sale once a month...
speaking of london shops...
sorry for the momentary thread hijack, megami!
do any of you london ladies know of a place for vintage glasses frames? here in portland we have several shops filled with deadstock, and a few eye technicians skilled in filling them with modern prescriptions. any...
eb, i'm with you. ebay used to be so fun for me! i've never used a sniping program, but probably would if i was just *that* desperate for a particular item - it seems like you have to these days if you're an avid ebay user.
