    "Wrong bra could damage breasts"

    I have a small chest, and one boob is a lot bigger than the other, so it can be a pain in the butt to find a bra that fits well for me. I finally found those Hanes half-size bras at Target, and they fit magnificently! However, now that I got off the pill, the boobs are shrinking again, so it's...

    Baby Names? Vintage?

    Everyone in my extended family has pretty classic names. There's Colin, Shannon, Fiona, Owen (can you tell we are Irish?), Suzanne, Thomas and John Connor. And my name is Meredith. The names I'm in love with for my future kids if I have any are Isabel, Clara and Jack. Nice and simple. I was...

    why do you do live the way you do.?

    Well said! I agree wholeheartedly.

    Remix Shoes!!

    That's terrible that they treated you so badly! I'm really surprised, though because every time I've been in the store they have always been so helpful. I even got a large "student discount" (I think he felt bad for me!) from the man working there named Philip or Paul (some P name!). That...

    Who wrote the book on motherhood?

    You should really watch Ricki Lake's documentary "The Business of Being Born". I found it on google video, or you could probably rent it from Netflix. It's really enlightening about the way women's bodies work and how medical intervention (aka, giving birth in a hospital setting) is very often...

    Shampoo

    My hair isn't too problematic (probably because I always condition it and usually use a leave-in product as well), so drugstore brands are fine with me. I love Dove, but I'm also a fan of the new Loreal Vive products. They have a huge variety of shampoo and conditioners for different hair types.

    Girdles, Corsets, and Underpinnings

    I am EXACTLY the same way! I thought I was the only one! I hate it because when I wear tight skirts it always looks like my undies are cutting into my hips. I even had friends tell me that my underwear was too tight! I basically try not to worry about it since I'd rather not wear butt/hip...

    Summer Fashion

    I found a great pair of high-waisted shorts at old navy for $15-25. They aren't super high-waisted, but they cover my hips and that's good enough for me! I one pair in black and one in dark grey. I've been wearing them a lot with cute blouses and wedges. Not the most vintage thing in the world...

    Nutrition and exercise!

    I just got back from my second yoga class this week and I am so exhausted! It's not like any yoga class I've taken before, I was sweating buckets! It's helped me shed some extra pounds I gained from going out to dinner every night with friends though, so I gotta stick with it. I'm trying to...

    Barbigirl - Injured In Auto Accident (Update: & On The Mend!)

    Ugh, this is so awful!!! I hope she makes a speedy recovery. My thoughts are definitely with her and her family.

    Care to join my no eating after 7 p.m. (EDIT) or 3 hours before bed thread?

    Same thing happened to me with Concerta. I didn't lose so much so fast, but I got down to my lowest weight ever, 107, which was not good. I could only eat Trader Joe's trail mix bars (a few a day) and an occasional bag of popcorn. It eventually sucked more than what I was using Concerta to...

    How Vintage Do You Go? -merged thread-

    I grew up with a computer in the home, got a cell phone when I was 16 and have been making food with a microwave ever since I could read the instructions on the box. I don't think I could do without those things (well, perhaps I could do without the micro!) simply because it's how I grew up...

    Ice Cream Parlor Talk

    I LOVE ice cream, so I don't have just one favorite flavor. The ultimate though is vanilla honey lavender from the organic ice cream place near my parent's house in Northern California. There's always a line out the door, but it's amazing! Hagen Daaz is now making a vanilla honey flavor...

    Young loungers

    I'm 20, and I guess I started experimenting with vintage when I was around 14. I was into punk (still am), so I used to dye my hair blue and wear black dickies and random thrifted shirts. Later in high school I began to get into rockabilly and psychobilly, so my style shifted to more...

    Vintage style interfere with buying modern clothes?

    The majority of my clothes are modern. However, they pretty much all are vintage-inspired as well! I love Banana Republic for this, they have such cute vintage-inspired and classic items that aren't too expensive. Even cheap chains like Forever 21 have vintage-inspired pieces if you dig enough...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    In the Netherlands I got no comments from anyone, ever! Which is probably good, since I wouldn't have understood them anyway! But since I've been back in California I've gotten comments galore. I've been dressing in skirts everyday since I've been here and it's nice to be noticed again. I...

    Is lipstick out?

    Hahaha, that is quite true! I was recently at a theme party where I had to dress up as another friend and vice versa. Well, the girl who dressed up as me (red lipstick and all), had quite a difficult time with the red lipstick! She kept asking me how I kept it on all night, even when I'm...

    Vintage Friends

    My boyfriend is into vintage, as is my best friend, but she likes the 70's stuff. She appreciates the 30's-50's though, so she's fun to go vintage shopping with. My boyfriend's group of friends, who I'm also good friends with, are rockabilly/psychobilly kids, so though they aren't really into...

    Is lipstick out?

    I know I'll be wearing my red lipstick until the day I die! I just don't feel like I look "complete" without lipstick. I rarely follow fashion trends, so it doesn't bother me if what I'm doing is "out"! It usually is, anyway. :)
