    Nutrition and exercise!

    Model or Not?

    hmmm. it all depends for me. i think more importantly than real or fake model, i would like to see dresses that are my size (i'm a modern-day 12 or 14) modeled on bodies that are at least within a couple sizes as mine! on thinner models i know the dress is not looking at all like it will on me...

    To wax or not to wax ????

    i've been thinking about doing this as well... i used to be an obsessive arm-shaver. i've gotten myself out of the habit but my arm hair is crazy enough to need at-least occasional management and waxing is def better than shaving in that regard!

    The lack of Pedestrian culture in America

    my dad hitchhiked in the 60s and ended up in a bodycast due to a car accident. [huh] how many times did i hear that story growing up! i haven't hitchhiked or picked up people on the road, but i have met some interesting folks and shared gas expenses by finding passengers on craigslist!

    hep, cute dress! and i hear ya on the waist worries... by modern AND vintage standards mine is too big for my bust and hips, so it eliminates a lot of dress possibilities for me, too!

    The loss of occasion

    missbrill, i agree with you wholeheartedly. and when i die... people can wear whatever they damn please! i'd feel more disrespected by people silently judging each other at my funeral, than by someone wearing jeans.

    Dress For Success

    one time i was spotted at the derby (ironically, the same day that i modeled in a vintage fashion show!) by some gals from a salon and they recruited me and my then-boyfriend to dance/model in a hair show. had i not been dressed vintage, they probably would have asked someone else, since they...
