    Show Us Your Purchases!

    Great hats, Begin! I wish my head weren't so big, I would love one of Lauren's lovelies! I hope that things smooth out for you soon :) Just when hubby and I were terrified about how we would afford baby, a promotion at work came out of the blue today (for the hubby, I forgot to clarify...

    Big Weddings, are they still around?????

    Luckily (or not, I miss not having a sense of family), I don't really know my extended family. My motto when deciding how many people should come was "If you aren't involved in my life on a regular basis, if you don't know my relationship with my fiancee to be able to celebrate if this marriage...

    Big Weddings, are they still around?????

    Big weddings are common. I hear about them all the time, and as a matter of fact, I almost think they are more common than not. I had 30 guests at mine, and loved it :)

    Goldleaf's Great News...and some buying advice!

    ITC, you hit the nail on the head. Omega 3's are highly important. I have done quite a bit of reading about them, and I really, really believe in their importance. I have been taking a fish oil Omega 3 supplement for a year because they are vital for the body's functioning. Omega 3's are...

    I'm writing a book on vintage style....

    Ooooo, or tall ladies! Cause the waists on things never hit me in the right place! Grrrr :rage: I don't know what the solution is, perhaps you will have better luck than I! Maybe what style was longer waisted in each era? What era had drop waists? That might help :)

    Disney Rejection Letter - 1938

    Whew! This relates a bit to a different discussion we were having elsewhere. She obviously had ambition and wasn't allowed to pursue it because of her gender! Thank goodness that I haven't had to face that today!

    Cold Cream- Brands and advice!

    Ok, a new question. I think this may be a good place to add on. We have talked about toners here before, and I am looking for advice. I wanted to get the Thayers rose witch hazel toner, but it has methylparabens in it. I am trying to buy paraben free products now. Anyone have a...

    Vintage Sizing

    That is really cool, Nic! I admire that you are able to do that! I only get one pair of shoes a season (if I am lucky) and those are the cheap-o ones from Payless lol And believe it or not, I wear them for years! My sandals I am wearing today I got 3 summers ago! I have a pair that I...

    Show us your hair do's....

    Bonnie, you look great! I once knew a young man with vitiligo pretty badly. He was darker/olive complected to start with, so his white spots really showed up. He was covered in them. And ya know what, Dan was amazingly cute! And his personality just made him shine. I never saw his skin...

    what if you could travel back in time but could never return?

    I do see your point :) However, once my hubby is done with is Masters and gets a real job (his current one doesn't count, lol) things for us could change quite a bit. Who knows? At least then it could be an option. It may not be now, but knowing that it could be is wonderful :) And Karol...

    what if you could travel back in time but could never return?

    I think that there has been progress for women. For the past few years of my marriage, I am very glad that I had a job, I couldn't stand sitting home alone all day. I am the kind of person that doesn't like to spend large stretches of time all by myself. I like my job quite a bit, and my...

    Oh the Stigma with wearing seamed fully fashioned stockings!

    Well said, Kitty. I think you hit the nail on the head. Have you taken management/human resource classes? You sound like my hubby :) And of course, that is a good thing. While I agree that you should have the choice ideally, if people misunderstand them and are uncomfortable, there isn't...

    what if you could travel back in time but could never return?

    If I could go back in time to observe, not because I desire the way of life, I would go back to October 31, 1517 in Wittenberg, Germany. The day the of beginning of the Protestant Reformation. Martin Luther tacked his 95 theses to the door of the Cathedral, and the world has never been the...

    The Vintage Suitor

    I had something similar to that happen to me in college, PT. I worked in the school deli making sandwiches on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and a boy came through more often than not. I memorized his sandwich so I could spend the time making it chatting with him. I was totally mesmorized by this...
