Make or Buy? Your preference?
if you enjoy sewing as an act of creating though, the time doesn't really factor in. the fabric for my last vintage dress cost me about $19 (vintage repro, got it on sale). i'll be using vintage notions i got for cheap ages ago. the dress will fit me perfectly, which would rarely happen for a...- ShooShooBaby

Make or Buy? Your preference?
yup, me too sally! i will buy pretty much anything if it's under $5. those usually end up being my favorite items. i tend to get a little embarrassed of the few things i've spent over $50 on. as for the make vs. buy question... i'm lazy/busy so i don't get much sewing done. in theory, i love...- ShooShooBaby

Can a man appreciate vintage and be metro?
edward, your last post pretty much rules. :eusa_clap i'm a huge fan of gender fluidity myself. i'm not sure why people feel the need to police others' gender and sexual expression so much. that's all i have time to say on the subject right now, i have to leave for work!- ShooShooBaby

Oil Cleansing Method
kitty, trader joe's is an excellent place to get decent-quality, cheap EVOO (their store brand is fine) and jojoba oil. and jenautica is right, the supplies will last a long time!- ShooShooBaby

everyone's getting such cool stuff! i'm esp coveting that girl scout top. as we all know, i can't stay out of the thrifts. i spent $41 at the goodwill bins alone, and that was getting down to the $.69 a pound level! :rolleyes: fortunately most of the stuff is for resale - i'm getting a spot in...- ShooShooBaby
