Diamonds aren't (always) a girl's best friend...
I hate those things on people teeth, i think its just another, way over-the-top, way of showing that they have money!

Thoughts about waist training and the hourglass figure today.
I think there is one lady who has got the smallest waist in the world or something, and is in the Guiness Book of Records. She has a waist of about 15" or something mad!! I think that acutally having a waist is something that looks really femine, and looks especially good in 40's/50's clothes...- maisie

Remix Shoes
We i'm a UK 7, and i got a size 10 (cause they were the ones being sold on ebay for like a 1/3 of the price!!) And they fit perfectly and they are SO comftable, but i can also ajust them to make them smaller, so i reckon a 9 will be alright for a UK 6.5!- maisie

Vintage PJ's, dressing gowns and more....
It just shows how classy the 30's and 40's were, they even dressed up to go to bed! I think that some of the nighties are just so beautiful, especially the 30's ones, they look more like evening gowns than nightwear!! I managed to get 2 sets of silk and lace pajamas off ebay one is the...- maisie

I've had that happen, and it is so cool when it does!! I bought a pair of purple suede and snakeskin anklestrap shoes from a person who had paid over $100 and they didn't fit them, and i got then for $25!! I was very, very pleased when i got them and they fitted, but i bet the seller was gutted!- maisie

Out of the Closet?
Did anyone see all the old 1940s Vogue magazines on ebay, it was only the front cover but the starting price was $9.99, not surprising really when hardly any of them had bids, however if i saw a Vogue magazine (complete) for sale for the same price i would bid, so it just shows they should have...- maisie
