Hello,
What a friendly place this is. I've been dropping in every now and then for the last year or so, and I don't really know why it's taken me so long to join you folks in conversation.
I'm from 'The Old Smoke'; London, and I describe myself as a vintage obsessive/'purist' who has been...
I'm going to try and explain it: If you are looking at the dress from the back, the long tie up bit attached to the right goes under the back/left side and through the hole and wraps round the front, then the left hand tie goes across the lower back and round the front, depending on how big it...
I hope someone can help. I have these Remix shoes, that I haven't been able to wear at all this Summer, as the sole at the very front has worn away where it meets the leather and I don't know where to get them repaired. I took a pair of vintage shoes to Timpsons last year and they stuck a...
Wow, Miss Hannah, you sure do take a lovely photo, and of course, look lovely in them too. I went to Paris last year and found some postcards there of Paris in the 50s, and these look like they could be part of the collection ;)
Yes I used it and loved it. Used to buy it in Boots until one day I went in and it was reduced, and then I heard it was being discontinued. Boo hoo. I blogged about it at the time here.
I'm currently obsessed with Richard Yates. Revolutionary Road was just fabulous, and I'm now working my way through Easter Parade, next on my list is Eleven Kinds of Loneliness. Even though they are pretty depressing, I love his way of reflecting real lives in Mid Century America, and yes, real...
Well hello there

I want to find out what foundation you pale gals use. I've tried so many foundations, and at the moment am using the Maybelline 24hour one which is definitely the palest I've found, but I can still see the slight yellowy/orange tinge around my eyebrows and hairline, and if I try and patch it up...
Exactly. I'd rather feel good about myself and know that I'm being myself and receive a few horrible comments from a few ignorant idiots then dress in a way that just isn't me to please them.
The best thing about blogging is recieving all the wonderful comments and opening yourself up to meeting and making so many 'blogging pals'. I definitely find that the posts that receive the most comments and are most popular are the simple outfit posts accompanied by a photo. Us girls just love...
I happen to work in a museum that is about WW2 so about a million times a day I get 'so do they make you dress like that?', 'do you do your hair and make up when you get into work or do you travel in like that?', 'How come nobody else here has to wear a costume?' , I've even had 'do your fiends...
Hi there,
I started writing a blog after reading and following loads of others for a period of time. I'm on Blogger and I find it really easy. It has been updated recently as well. Mine is www.jennyjenny-yesterdaygirl.blogspot.com You will find links to lots of others on my page.
My Horrockses Experience
I'm so glad I found this thread, I have been dying to tell someone who actually cares this story:
I work for the Imperial War Museum and have been doing volunteering once a fortnight in their Exhibitions department. Well, last Thursday morning when I went into the...
