    30's Gentlemen's Etiquette

    Scotrace, that's some silky technique you've got going there!

    Jennifer Garner as Miss Marple???

    My exact first thought. Paris Hilton for Sherlock Holmes, anyone?

    vintage raincoats

    Another vintage sighting of a clear raincoat - in 1945's "Scarlet Street", worn beautifully by Joan Bennett. Sorry, can't find a pic!

    Will we ever see a return to more formal clothes?

    I think we may need to send WineGuy and The Good over to our Handsome Fellas thread! A sight for sore eyes, the pair of you! I had a recent experience during a trip to Mississippi, when my mother took me to the local Walmart for something or other, and pretty much everyone there was...

    The Golden Era's *ugliest* clothes

    As a rule I'm the kind of gal who will brake for polka dots, but man oh man, I'd definitely keep plowing through and run those gloves over! They remind me of those kitchy washing-up gloves you find these days.

    Girl Crushes!

    :) Hopefully before the Autumn/Winter stock is exhausted. I'll be keeping an eye out for sure! Same here - girl crushes, guy crushes...I do joke that everyone I have a crush on is dead. Only that it's the truth. (Just to clarify that it's not because they're dead that I have crushes on...

    Fur Question!

    I don't know if this would be of interest, but there's an excellent tutorial on how to do your own faux-fur cardigan. Also on my to-do list, as I'm a veggie non-fur wearer and I've been coveting one of these cardis for months and months (I saw the perfect one at Wallis about a year ago, didn't...

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    I always equated Etienne Aigner with the Preppy aesthetic of the 80's (those brownish handbags I recall with a shudder), which turned me off of that brand for good, but if they can create something that stunning than I was definitely being too hasty!

    Girl Crushes!

    I thought this lady had a very interesting face, so I did a search on her as I had no idea who she was. Got to her website, had a look at her spring summer catalog, not at all my cup of tea. But when I got to her winter one - wow! I'd like to buy at least 3/4 of what's in there. I'm so...

    Show Us Your Purchases!

    Kick yourself not - the British version is much much cheaper than that (from about £12 at the moment - I had a peek on Amazon 'cause I was shocked when I saw the price you just wrote there!) and a great bargain for all of those films together. I love my set!

    Girl Crushes!

    Jean Arthur gets my number one vote - the face, the voice, wow! The fact that she would move mountains to help a defenseless animal pushes it up to Number One Plus! I definitely have a crush on Myrna Loy, of whom I've never seen a duff photo, and Norma Shearer, especially when you catch her in...

    Coty Cosmetics!

    I found mine in CVS as well. Bummer about the new horrid landfill fodder packaging. Looks like I'll be re-using my current cardboard box when it runs out. Hope they've not monkeyed 'round with the contents, too...

    why do hot dogs & popcorn from the movie theater smell better than home made?

    I might order some of that Odells as a special treat for when I have my horror film marathons on Halloween...popcorn really is my desert island food!

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    I have the wedges that I don't actually ever use for dancing - they are my workhorse shoes during the summer for sure. They are a tad "granny-ish" but that isn't something I particularly dislike, and the sole seems not to have worn at all during months of almost constant wear! I must admit...

    why do hot dogs & popcorn from the movie theater smell better than home made?

    Question is, where can we nab us some of that, um, anhydrous butterfat? :)

    Vintage-Inspired clothing lines

    I think you were right there; I tried contacting them via Facebook and Angela answered back straight away. She said they'd gotten my emails and responded, but I never got anything. I assume there's something amiss w/my email. Anyhow, all's well that ends well, as I've placed my order and am...

    Show Us Your Purchases!

    I own a pair of those red'uns too! They look really cute on, except I find they do cut into my foot a bit. Maybe when they've been more broken in they will improve, as I'd only gotten them as summer was coming to a close...

    Lyrics to an old spooky song

    Wow - that sounds like one heck of a macabre lullaby! Hope someone here can help you out with this one, very intriguing!

    Thank you so much - I'll give it another go tomorrow. I hope it pans as I've been hankering for this skirt for months (see earlier post in this thread!).
