    I remember when.....

    Wow, your TV was all singing, all dancing, compared to mine! I think mine had belonged to my mom when she was younger. I had to get out of bed to change the station over and the screen was tiny, but it did the job! :) And our old VCR didn't have rotary controls on it, I think they were push...

    I remember when.....

    My parents having a VCR that had a remote control that you plugged into it with a big, long wire, (good for tripping/falling over). Having a bright red rotary phone. A black and white TV in my bedroom. The enormous 1950's/60's record player my grandparents had that was in a beautiful...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I'm really surprised that a guy would say that to you, Juliet. You think he has a crush on you, perhaps?! I think all the rude comments I've ever gotten have been from other women. :( I was at a dinner party last weekend, just chatting to a couple of guys in a purely friendly kind of way...

    What are you listening to?

    I'm listening to Ella Fitzgerald, on vinyl (the way God intended lol) And my roommate... singing a 'Joseph & His Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat' medley. *sigh*

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    It is!! Unfortunately though, I think guys and girls act out the jealousy in different ways. In my experience, guys try to overcompensate and get all alpha-male and weird and girls, well... they just get plain old mean and catty! LD - That is hilarious!! lol

    Elderly Reactions To Vintage

    Sunny87 - I do! I love to hear about their lives and what is was actually like to live during those times. I always find it interesting when I speak to elderly people in the UK, because they usually tell me that though times were hard during the war, they think it was a much nicer time to be...

    Oh, dear. But Mary Poppins was fabulous! Would that make you 'practically perfect, in every way'? lol

    Show us your hair do's....

    I'm a big Sinatra fan... And I've yet to see a movie with actors that look anything like the members of the Rat Pack, so I guess my eye is trained to look for ANY kind of resemblance I can find, lol. I think maybe it's the hair, although I can't say why!

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I get stares and snickering from tweens and teenagers (basically those who know no better), but a colleague made me laugh a couple of months ago when she commented on my hair. I told her I loved vintage things and she said, "You know, there are places for people like you..." I was a little...

    Show us your hair do's....

    Hey all! I'm new around here and I'm completely in awe of you guys and your amazing hair styles. I feel like I'm constantly at war with my hair, it's kind of thick, naturally wavy and fairly long and it has a mind of it's own! A very wilful mind. So, I was wondering if any of you guys...

    Elderly Reactions To Vintage

    Hey guys, good to meet you all, it's my first post here so I'm kind of nervous, but... I've had some lovely comments about my clothing from older people and have heard the most amazing stories about their lives. One old lady commented on my hair and then told me about her experiences during the...
