    bra question

    positively pinup, i'm formerly a 36G (got a reduction last summer, and now i'm the same size as you!) and when i wore strapless it HAD to be a longline. they were pretty supportive for me, even over the course of several hours. i would really recommend going to a department store and trying...

    Oh My!

    my mother started encouraging me to diet and exercise with her when i was about 11. regardless of my weight, feeding my low self-image was cruel, in my opinion. even worse... looking at dance performance pics of myself from then i see now that i was not "getting fat" in the slightest - i was...

    Look Alike Experiences

    i can't think of any lookalike experiences i've personally had lately, but i am the master of finding vintage doppelgangers in old yearbooks/catalogs/photographs. many of my friends are used to me forcing them to check out this person on page 84 who looks "just like them" but in 1941! my own...

    Show Us Your Purchases!

    RHRH, i am dying over all those girly embroidery sets. and my grandma wore those terry cloth turbans until her death in 2003. i was always so embarrassed when i'd go pick her up to go grocery shopping and she would be wearing rust-colored double-knit polyester pants, beige blouse, and...

    Make Do and Mend

    this past week i created a chicken coop at my new house for my flock. i (re)used: - a sturdy doghouse purchased on craigslist - reused hardware purchased from the rebulding center - the lid from a used wine-box from trader joes - concrete foundation blocks that were sitting around my...

    Harold & Maude

    my favorite scene would have to be when the mother is filling out the survey for the dating service for him. has anyone noticed cat stevens' cameo in the outdoor funeral sequence? and the sassy little girl that follows maude out of the scene! so cute.

    Nutrition and exercise!

    i prefer uphill too. downhill bothers my knees a bit (geez, how old do i sound??) plus if i've walked pretty far uphill, i feel like i have spaghetti-legs on the way down! and as for me... as of last night i'm done moving! so now i can start thinking about my eating and exercising again. a...

    Harold & Maude

    "possession of a stolen shovel." it definitely gets a "yay" from me! it's playing at a theater in my city this week, so this will be my 3rd time to see it on the big screen.

    Why do I hate the 1970s so much?

    shaggy my dad still has green shag carpet in his bedroom, despite the fact that the rest of the house has been recarpeted TWICE since the 70s. [huh] i still had it in my room when i was a kid, it was perfect for losing legos in and then stepping on them later!

    Everyday Bags

    that bag sounds so cool! i'm another who would never spend $100 on a bag. i got my timbuk2 bag at 30% off the regular price of $80 with my friend's REI employee discount, but that's not really a purse. i think i bought a corde purse once for $20, and that is my most expensive purse!

    "1940's Hairstyles" The book will break the bank

    i'm curious, how much are the first editions going for? i bought mine the first time daniela brought them to satin ballroom. not in the best shape, but it's never been very helpful to me, and it's not like i have much sentimental attachment to it.... hmm.

    Sewing Lessons & FAQ

    barbara, i've never made one, but my local fabric shop is nuts over amy butler's bags, and they always have them displayed in the store. they look great, but i can't say i've ever used one.

    "Mildred Pierce" (1945)

    daisy, i've seen this movie a couple times and i really like it as well. i agree that the clothes in it are great, and the acting is pretty good as well. the daughter is beautiful but so evil! that's the depth of my analysis/review for now... i find it really entertaining and dramatic!

    Why do I hate the 1970s so much?

    agreed x800. i had a choir director in high school that always tortured us by making us sing (AND DANCE TO) the manhatten transfer's songs. that said... i adore the 70s!

    Vintage Catalogs

    i really love sewing pattern catalogs. there are also mailers that got sent out that are like mini-catalogs. the illustrations are great!

    Fashion with Aunt Flow

    not sure about golden era, but i know one herbal remedy from the past is red raspberry leaf tea. i think it works best when you drink it often throughout the month. traditional medicinals sells it in the bag, but i'm sure you could get it much cheaper at an herb shop and use a strainer, and find...
