This is my furry guy, Maddox, although he also answers to 'Boss' and 'darling', depending on his mood. He's a gemini, loves Chinese food and he enjoys long, moonlit walks, chasing his bouncy ball, communing with pigeons, snuggling with momma and taking long naps in his office (the shower cubicle).
Similarly to Landgirl, it depends on the mood I'm in as to how vintage I go. Some days I liked to be totally authentic and will make sure my clothing, make-up and hair are all styled accordingly, other days I'm just in normal clothes. I'm definitely not a jeans and t-shirt girl though, in fact...
Thanks Landgirl! I'm glad it's a good book, it was on sale so I figured I'd give it a go. I've spent years perfecting my make-up, but hair I've just never had the patience for and sometimes I'll admit that my unruly hair just makes me lose my temper with it, lol. Thank God for snoods!
But...
That's so nice! I was close to my grandparents too, I adored my nana and I think I thought my grandpa just about hung the moon. I know my love of vintage things comes from them, they lived close by, so I saw them almost every day and would stay with them every weekend with my sister. I'd watch...
Cumberworth and thunderw21, you both look fabulous! :eusa_clap I only wish guys dressed more like that where I live!
Miss Tuppence, you look elegant as always! :)
I just ordered 'Style Me Vintage' by Belinda Hay, today. I was wondering if any of you guys have come across this book and what you thought of it?! I wanted something with a step-by-step guide to hairstyles, which apparently this has, because I'm really not great at doing hair. Hopefully, it...
I watched this movie a few weeks ago when it was on TV. It was pretty late at night and I kept saying to myself that I'd only watch another 10 minutes, then go to bed... I ended up watching the entire thing. Fabulous movie!!
My nana told me they used to do that too and her best friend used to use gravy browning on her legs to make them look darker, like she was wearing stockings.
Seriously! I'm doing my MA in Broadcasting right now, so to make ends meet, I work as a part-time high school English Lit. teacher and the conversations I've had with a few parents have left me almost speechless. One parent told me I wasn't to give her son homework because she felt having to do...
I use the Bourjois blusher in Rose Ambre too, I really like the colour and it seems to have lasted well, but it is a little shimmery.
I've seen the NYC cosmetics in the stores, so I might pick one of those up to try! Thanks for the tip, Maisie! :)
I think they old television sets looked so much nicer than the new ones, the wooden cabinet surrounds and the control panels made them look like attractive pieces of furniture, as well as being functional.
And I know we all had to get up to change the channels, lol and as the youngest in the...
I just watched 'The Awful Truth' for about the hundreth time. It's one of my all time favorite movies and I love the Cary Grant/Irene Dunne pairing. Still makes me laugh out loud, no matter how many times I watch it. :)
