    Show us your hair do's....

    My hair was fully dry. I usually set it damp, but I was being lazy. I think one of the reasons it curled well was because I had a little bit of curl in my hair from the perm rods earlier that day and I had hairspray in my hair. I set my hair dry last night and I didn't get nearly as good of...

    Inky, I agree on the eyebrows. When I do them they look dark to me but as soon as I get in my car or take a picture they look way too light. Thank you for the brow powder you suggested, I've been looking for something new and your brows look excellent! My eyebrows are my problem child, they...

    A little delayed... I took two pictures of my hair last week, but I haven't had a chance to post them yet. It's also the debut of my my darker hair! It's darker than I had wanted (I wanted a chocolate shade, it's more of a black), but I love it. In this photo I attempted Lolita Haze's...

    I have the first edition and it was coil bound when I received it. At first I didn't like it because the pages got stuck on the coils and it didn't look as nice as the regular bound one. Now that you mention it would lay flat it makes sense and now I'm not so sad about it. I guess if I actually...

    Do's and Don'ts in Fashion

    I'm 5'8 and in high school I wanted to be in on the trend of low rise jeans, but when I went to get a pair I thought they were too small when they'd sit where they were supposed to because it felt like everything was hanging out. So I've always purchased the next size up and pull them up over my...

    Analiebe- I love how your hair turned out, and your creative post! Grant Fan- your hair looks wonderful, love the flower. Inky- You look very pretty, you should venture out in rolls more often! Lolita- You must be a hair genius, it turned out perfectly, and even the back is perfect!

    What are you wearing today??

    Grant Fan- you look fantastic. I'm willing to bet that you'll be the best dressed lady at the cocktail party! I love the gold heels paired with the green dress, plus those shoes are really pretty!

    I understand low rise jeans being a necessary evil. I also wear low rise jeans because I haven't been able to find high rise jeans that look nice on me. Luckily, I'm able to pull them up high enough so that I don't embarrass myself, but I hate constantly having to pull and tug at them.

    Clothing color combinations

    Viola, I think I lean more toward a pinkish fair, but I'm not sure. I just remember my mom telling me that white washed me out because I'm so fair skinned. I think I look better in cool tones. I tend to wear reds, blues, burgundies, plums, darker greens, colors kind of in that range. Edited to...

    I was going to say it reminded me of Mad Men! You look fabulous, I think the navy with black accents looks really nice! I really like the neckline on the dress. lol I agree! Sadly, the muffin top isn't the only thing wrong with low rise jeans. I'm sorry, but I really don't want my butt crack...

    Clothing color combinations

    Viola- I was thinking of doing a light gray with black trim, or a pale pink and black trim. I like the idea of ivory or cream, but I'm always afraid to get anything in that shade because they get dirty easy or because I'm afraid I'll look washed out because I'm so fair. Saycici- I actually...

    lol The high heels and track pants made me laugh, I can just picture it!

    Clothing color combinations

    SayCici, now that you mention it, it does look like she added it to the photo. It looks like this is the original photo. It's a costume test photo for the movie "We're not Married". It looks like she's taken the pockets out as well. She probably made the trim solid because she doesn't have trim...

    I posted this earlier in the custom repro thread but didn't get much of a response. I actually think it is probably better suited for this thread. I would love some advice/opinions on what you ladies think would be a good color combination for this dress in general and for me in particular...

    Custom made vintage repros...

    Bumping this thread I was thinking of purchasing this dress from Top Runway I don't know what color to get it in though. Does anyone have any idea of what color the original is? Or does anyone have any suggestions? I'm really excited to order it because of all of the nice dresses and skirts...

    I just watched the season premiere of Heroes tonight, it aired last night though. It's not vintage or even vintage inspired but I really love this show!

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Mad Men I had heard of Mad Men a long time ago and tried to watch an episode but it was the middle of season 2 so I was completely lost. I finally rented season 1 of Mad Men and we watched it this weekend, loved it! I'll have to rent season 2 now, and then wait for season 3 because I think...
