I have such a hard time coming up with my Christmas list, namely because there really isn't much that I want! Mostly all I want are gift cards/certificates to stores I shop at; I put a sewing machine on there (the goofy Hello Kitty one from Target, because I have no clue how to use one and it...
Here is another eBay purchase gone awry. I bought this because it looked really cute on the model, but once I received it and tried it on, it looked ridiculous on me!
I don't know the dating on this one - the tag reads "Anthony Richards." It is a size 14 (it was a little big on me, and I vary...
It kills me to do this, but I haven't had much luck buying clothing from eBay.
Here are two sweaters which the seller dated as 1950's. They are both Jantzen Kharafleece Short Sleeve Sweaters, size 36; measurements laying flat are: shoulder 16", Bust 39", sleeve 10", rust-5" neckline, 21"...
Wow, Elaina, that's great information!
I think I am going to go ahead with the nails - the place I go to is very good. I always ask for the rounded, shorter style since I do a lot with my hands (in the office I'm constantly filing things away, and at home my hobbies consist of making jewelry...
Funny to think that Marc Summers (also a fellow Hoosier!) suffers from OCD and was often working in such messy conditions!
Any one remember "Fifteen," the teenage soap opera of sorts with Ryan Reynolds? Man, I had the hots for him back then, and I have the hots for him today! :)
Those dresses are really pretty!! Why can't all plus-sized clothing be as flattering and pretty as that!? I like that you can select your body type and they will show you what would look best.
This is a bit off the topic of vintage clothing - but you know what gets my goat? Designers who feel...
I'm not sure about the nail polish - I'd assume it was a plain color without the glitter or shimmer, but I really have no clue. The link some one posted a while back in another thread just states:
"It was popular to wear nail polish according to clothes and accessories. Therefore a lot of...
This thread is so old, but I just had to comment.
DH and I recently bought the first volume a few weekends ago and we just love it! There are a few extra features, one called "Toon Heads' which is a run down just like Pyroxene posted and it shows some of the cartoons in question. I've...
I always have blotted my lipstick - a thing I picked up from my Grandmother (in her 70's now). I always used to watch as she'd apply her makeup in the mornings, watching in awe the transformation that took place. She's a beautiful woman without the makeup, but it always added that extra...
I've been curious about this too...not that I'd ever have time to do anything outside of work, but it'd be nice to have the option :)
If nothing is out there, we could always start our own...(she says half-joking, half-serious...)
Good grief, Charlie Brown...
Ugh - I don't think I'm measuring myself correctly...in the absence of my tape measure, I had to resort to using the string method, and I just don't think it's right! So far, everything but one shirt I've bought off eBay has been too small, even though the...
It's sad, but...
...as much as I want to react with shock and say "I just can't believe it!" I can't do that. It might seem odd to a lot of us that people would act that way, but people are generally afraid (not scared, but unsure) of things they don't really know much about. Sometimes the...
I haven't read all the replies to this thread, namely because I'm at work and should really being working instead of reading :)
Diamonds are nice, but every one can wear them - guys some times have larger earrings that I could ever dream of! That's why I like pearls - they are ultra-feminine...
BonnieJean, thanks for asking about the difference between true vintage sweaters and modern sweaters - I was curious about that myself!
And thanks to Snookie for posting that link!
