    Thinking about a tattoo, but is it what good girls did in the 1940's?

    Amy, that boxer is amazing! I sent off the loooong word document describing my tattoo along with inspirational photos off to my tattoo artist yesterday. Nervous!

    Burton and Taylor, BBC4 Film

    Did anyone watch this film just now? It follows Burton and Taylor's relationship while doing the play "Private Lives." As per usual I thought it was fantastic, which shows that I really am incapable of critiquing anything. I thought the biopic's actors, Dominic West and Helena Bonham...

    favorite perfume...

    I gotta go pretty boring and old school on this one with the ever predictable Chanel No. 5 and Guerlain's Shalimar. At the same time I grew up with a mother who favours men's cologne above all else so I like to dabble in wearing my partner's Chanel Egoiste and Armani Code. I'm a bit of perfume...

    The Great Gatsby - Remake in the Works

    Oooh, lots of people seemed to really hate it! I gotta say that I read the book within 2 hours, a few hours before seeing the film. I would now call that book one of my favourite books of all time. It has sparked quite the Fitzgerald love fets in me and I'm slowly working my way through all...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    :offtopic: I had quite the little run in with someone first inside and then outside of a pub yesterday. The reason I'm sharing is because the fact that I was dressed very vintage and "put together" saved me from being punched in the face. My partner and I were walking to a pub to meet some...

    Are you ever tired of explaining why you live or dress the way you do?

    Oh, sometimes people can be truly cruel! I think that need to blend in keeps me from going all out a lot of the time. Most of the time I at least keep some part of me vintage inspired- whether it's my hair or my make-up. Usually the comments are nice but especially my family doesn't seem to...

    Vintage Car Thread - Discussion and Parts Requests

    Haha! And Americans always insist on pronouncing everything foreign incorrectly. ;)

    If you could solve just one mystery....

    I'm sure someone has already replied to this, but apparently the man who killed Elizabeth Short was Arnold Smith, a man who emerged in the 80s and knew notorious details about the case that were never published in the papers. He invented a fake person who was said to have told him about how this...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Just started watching "Orange is the New Black," and it looks very promising so far!

    Lindy Hop

    My partner and I are moving soon and with a bit of arm twisting I seem to have been able to convince them to take Lindy Hop classes with me! I'm sure it'll be interesting as I have previous medal from ball dancing competitions (these included Jive) while L pretty much has two left feet, BUT has...

    Oh, the Stigma of an Astigmatism. . .

    Update: I went back to the optician. They seem fine to them, the curvature on the more cat eyed pair was a bit strong so they made them a bit more flat. They advised to give it at least a month before I begin to seriously worry. Having said that- it has already significantly improved and...

    What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?

    Rockalily's Sailors Beware is my number one "Oh my god, this is so well pigmented, doesn't dry my lips out and makes me feel fab!" red.

    Thinking about a tattoo, but is it what good girls did in the 1940's?

    Interesting that this thread has just popped back up. I've been googling "average woman, tattoos, 1930, 1940, 1950" without much success. There is a fabulous book out there centred around women and tattoo culture. It does move chronologically as far as I'm aware. I too worry about my...

    As if we didn't chat about pin curls enough. . .

    Right, I'm bringing this one up from the catacombs again! HEEELPPPPP, ladies! As we may very well all know by now: I'm all thumbs when it comes to hair. Add to that the fact that I'm a mental perfectionist and you get a lot of frustrated evenings (I'm not kidding- a tear or two may have been...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    Oh my, quite the experience today, I set my hair last night and only wore a little sun dress, some red lippy and my glasses. It must have left quite the impression with the local school boys as I heard, "Slag!!" etc echoing from their side of the road. Ah well.

    Absolutely drop dead gorgeous either way. I used to look at your profile picture before I began commenting and always thought to myself, "Oh my lord, look at how stunning she is!" :D
