Does vintage make you look.... *older*?
For me there are certain parts of different eras that are ageing, because they are associated with things the elderly wear, or because they are more modest than what is considered stylish now. I think the main culprits are facial hair, hemlines, hairstyles and footwear. 40's hemlines are low...- Drappa

What Have You Acquired From Family?
I don't have a photo yet, nor have I seen it, but my MIL just called me tonight. My husband's great aunt, who is 86 this year, has just moved form her own apartment to a home and her place is being cleaned out by my in-laws. MIL found an old sewing machine and a footstool that opens up and turns...- Drappa

I actually saw last night that the price for them had dropped further since I got mine earlier in the week, so yes, very reasonable! And we can be belt twins now :D- Drappa

Petticoats and Crinolines.
I think it depends on what you'd wear them with, because cotton can get really static worn with some fibres or stockings. I have some petticoats that I got very cheaply on Ebay that are not very puffy at all, just give a little lift and have lace on them. Often they are not even listed as...- Drappa

The ones that got away
I am soooo annoyed I lost this :( I was outbid and was going to bid in the last 90 seconds, watching it closely for 10 minutes, and then the internet just cut out and it sold really low.- Drappa

^Yes, that's where I first heard about it. Never thought I'd find one I could afford though! The bow belt is on sale right now, search for Jigsaw belt on Ebay UK.- Drappa

Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage
I recently got my husband a bakerboy cap, and he always dresses pretty smart anyway, but it makes him look a little vintage. Today I was wearing a Trashy Diva circle dress with two petticoats, patent belt, two-tone heels and vintage bag and he wore his new hat and we went into Chichester for the...- Drappa

And these two cardigans, the green one I bought years ago in cream and wear it so often, so was looking for the same cream one but was delighted to find it in my size in green. It's very 40's IRL, with puff sleeves and great details.- Drappa
