    Pear shape body...

    1. Never really thought about it. The majority though is a smaller print type on the more a-line/fitted bottoms. If it is a full skirt I don't have a problem with a larger print. I tend to wear things that focus on my top half or draw attention to my smaller waist. Details such as ruffles...

    23- OH MY! Thank you, thank you for all this information. It is very helpful. I had done my research about the GIA certifications and such. The ring I found has been appraised twice with certificates. I was wondering if I should take it in for my own evaulation as well. The above notes...

    Welcome To The No Spender Bender

    I have been on this sort of thing for about 1-1/2 years now. It was very very tough in the beginning to give up my daily trolling of ebay and etsy. It's way easier now. I have cut my target runs down to once a month (I used to never be able to get out of there without an additional $50...

    Tuesday has passed and was thinking of you. Hope everything is going well and that it is not too overwhelming as things begin. Warmest wishes!

    Etsy

    I had a recent wonky etsy experience. I had sent my family my sign in and Favorites as a sort of Christmas list. I was tired of hoping for vintage and getting another mall gift certificate. So I thought this was brilliant. Problem was - instead of my sister getting her own sign in - she...

    Make Do and Mend

    Need some advice. I have a handmade dress. I think the fabric is reasonable old and it does currently have a vintage zipper. It's in a 50's style tight bodice and very very full skirt. Just one problem. At one point someone decided that it was too short waisted and did a dreadful job of...

    That is lovely! I have something similar in my mind. Very exciting for you. I'm pretty excited. For valentines day the fellow is taking me ring shopping. I couldn't be more thrilled. I'm a control freak so of course I want to pick it out myself. I wish I knew of a place to actually buy a...

    My prayers are with you too. You've always been such a great part of this forum. Please know that we are all behind you! I second many of the suggestions posted - just wanted to chime in my support. My aunt too has fought and won against a very aggressive breast Cancer. You can do this and...

    Nutrition and exercise!

    I'm down 10 lbs this week from Dec. 27th. Not too bad. I need to take my measurements soon. I'm only on the excercise 3xs a week. Trying to increase the length of time in each session right now. So far to go though! Congrats Bella!

    Vintage products or any ideas on evening out skin texture

    I can have rather large pores as well. I like to use the Boots Pamper and Peel mask. For some reason it moisturizes/smoothes me out very well and my pores are noticeably smaller for a couple of days. I have combo skin with most of my pore issues on my nose and central cheeks. I get a lot of...

    High Waisted Pants & Jeans!

    Well - let me know if you do decide to sell. They might be right up my alley. I've been holding trying to decide whether to order the overalls anyway. Just pm me if any of you girls have fit issues and we'll chat.

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I've had many a stoles and collars petted. There's just no stopping some people (men primarily). I've commented back "Do you think that is appropriate to go up to a stranger and pet them? Most people ask permission even when it's someone's dog. I've been known to bite you know."

    set failures?

    I have one particular spot - does that count. The right side on the bottom which no matter what I do will always fail. I try to re-curl. Even if it looks ok when I walk out the door 20 mins later it is always hanging limp. I've even tried bring pins to re pin curl it halfway thru the day...

    Cardigans, cardigans, cardigans!

    The thing about Anthropologie is if you wait and are patient, generally they have a good sale (online as well). I rarely buy anything that is not on sale there becuase they have multiple lines and the sizing is all over the place. I do find though that things I bought nearly 8-10 years ago...

    Cardigans, cardigans, cardigans!

    Foofoogal- I feel that way about green cardigans. There is a cute one at Anthropologie currently though it is a little springy. Looked like it ran a little small when I tried it on. (Couldn't justify the pricetag right now). BTW they had a number of very cute 50's looking cardigans on the...
