HELP! 40s style cardigans
i'm currently knitting a vintage sweater for myself, and it's taking SOOOO long. the price to do one for someone else would be too high to ever do it! haha! i think the price she's charging you is a great deal for the amount of work it is. plus there's the price of the yarn. for my short-sleeve...- ShooShooBaby

web rip offs?
i occasionally blow a bunch of money on one vintage item on ebay, but rarely. there's a couple ways i justify this. first, finding vintage in my size (modern 12ish, vintage 20-22ish) in the time period i like clothes from the most (late 30s-early 40s) is pretty darn difficult. second, i've...- ShooShooBaby

The Regular Customer, The Usual Order

Cute Vintage-y Shoes
WOW those are some fantastic shoes! please let us know how they feel, when you get a pair! i try not to be the hoarding type when it comes to new shoes (vintage shoes are another story though), so having one pair eat up my whole shoe budget would probably be a good thing...- ShooShooBaby

VINTAGE FRIENDLY DEODORANT
i've used dove unscented solid for years when wearing vintage and i've never had a problem with staining or anything. i'm a little weirded out over the aluminum issue and that antiperspirant prevents a natural, healthy function, so i wear j/a/s/o/n tea tree deodorant on a daily basis instead -...- ShooShooBaby

Pet Food Recall
i must add though, i'm really not too surprised that this has happened. a little research show some disturbing things about the origins of standard pet foods - not exactly human-grade, or even close. i wish this stuff was better-known. luckily the price of good quality stuff isn't too...- ShooShooBaby
