    Do You Carry A Lucky Talisman?

    A cheap silver necklace I've had this thing probably since middle school. When I wore it, it was always a good day. I've probably lost this thing about 20 or more times over the years but it keeps turning up, sometimes in some bizarre places [huh] I don't wear it anymore but keep it in my...

    The Umbrella

    In the Northwest, umbrellas are a must, or at least should be. I don't know if it is because it rains so much around here that the people seem to think they are immune to it, but, more often than not, I see people getting completely soaked when an umbrella would have kept them dry and a lot...

    Hair + Round Face

    There are some make-up tricks to thin out and contour the face to have the appearance of being more oval. With a powder brush, use a bronzer (or blush in a tan shade) and apply one the outside corners of your forehead. Then to define your jawline more, apply along the jawline to the ear.

    Joan Ellen's outfits were incredible! She also has the perfect personality to pull off the look (especially when it comes to some of those hats!)

    Do you go Commando?

    I love sexy underpants as well, but there's something about going completely commando that, well, seems too naughty! underpants is like a blanket to me...a comfort thing. Even sleeping I need to be wearing a pair![huh] If a washer and dryer is not handy, hand wash! Then for drying them, put...

    Why are we doing this?

    I don't dress to get attention, though I have to admit I like it a lot! ;) I started dressing 'vintage' because there's not a whole lot out there for women that is classy. My favorite era's are the 40's and 50's which, women just looked beautiful. Also, clothes these days are not very...

    Do you mix eras when dressing vintage?

    With just getting the idea of this, I probably am mixing some era's in my outfit! Sunday is my day where I love to go all out vintage, other than that, it's a mix of 40's/50s with some modern accessories or clothes to go with.

    The Right Slip

    I like buying my slips at either Mervyn's or Target. Since we're on the subject of slips...I'm having a dress made for the QM, but I need a slip that will make the skirt of the dress *poof*, any suggestions?

    Cookies, get your cookies here!

    oh Daisy! that sounds horrible!!!!! You know, that's what I've found with foods that I'm allergic too, I crave them like crazy! I'm gluten intolerant which means no wheat, rye, or barley...so, fresh baked cookies right in front of me is just plain cruel!

    Cookies, get your cookies here!

    Locks of Hair -- Romantic or Creepy?

    I think giving a lock of hair to your lover is incredibly romantic, but I still don't know what to think of the braided hair jewelry still...I like things in their natural form. I would think it very sweet if I got a lock of hair myself, but I tend to respond better to something along the lines...

    Motherhood & the Vintage Lifestyle

    My tips Try to keep your routine as easy as possible for awhile. Especially after the baby comes, I've found it took me a good 3 months to get into a normal groove again! Since your hair is short, that will save time! Find simple dresses/ slacks and blouses that are easy to wear and...

    Back to zits

    That's the weird thing about allergies. You can use a certain product, eat a certain food for years, then bang! all of a sudden you're getting reactions. What you're seeing on your face may very well be hives. I tend to get them as well whenever I have a severe reaction to something. I'll do...
