    Your Favorite Film Costumes

    This thread's so great; I'm glad it was revived! Recently I've been positively haunted by Joan Crawford's stunning gown from 1933's Dancing Lady Sorry it's a giant picture, but I couldn't find any other size. I love her exuberant expression; that would be the most exhilarating entrance, I...

    Ladies show us your best.

    deleteduser, not only are you gorgeous, but that shot looks straight from the pages of a 1950s high fashion editorial! So lovely. Susan, you look so striking in that dress; with your hair and that backdrop, it's very film noir feeling!

    Excuse me Miss, do you Blog?

    MissLaurieMarie, that's such a cute name for a blog; I would read it, it sounds fun! I use Blogger, and it's really easy; I heartily recommend it! Also, re: how to blog consistently: sometimes, when I'm really feeling creative (or, you know, have too much time on my hands) I'll write up a bunch...

    Vintage Streetstyle Thread

    Great article; thanks for sharing! Apparently she has 500 dresses, and she used to have 1000 but most were lost in a fire... she shames all of us on the "how much is enough" thread! lol

    Homemade Cosmetics

    Beth-- I have a similar situation with oily forehead vs. bangs! I apply the lemon juice at night all over my face, including forehead (my bangs are rolled up in a curler). In the morning, I just rinse the lemon juice from my eyes down, leaving it on my forehead all day. It's worked really well...

    Wow, I got all giddy just reading the etsy listing! What a truly amazing find; I'm glad it's just as nice in person, you certainly look stunning in it!

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    Anything, that's the beauty of them! They're pretty versatile; I see thoroughly modern girls at my school wearing similar shoes with skinny jeans and t-shirts; they're also cute with summer dresses. I love the way Audrey Horne wears them, though:

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    These are so cute!! I have been looking for sleeker saddle shoes, like Audrey Horne's on Twin Peaks; these would fit the bill!

    When can you call your style vintage and when not to?

    One of the things that's cool about being vintage is that, for most of us, there's no strong physical community. Like, you don't walk into a high school cafeteria and see the jock's table, the nerds' table, and then the vintage kids' table. There are no "uniforms" or molds to fit into; as you...

    Homemade Cosmetics

    I use freshly squeezed lemon juice as a toner every night; I literally have a lemon in my fridge just for my face! It works like a charm to keep oiliness and acne at bay. I also use raw honey as a moisturizing mask every once and a while; it's great and very yummy ;)

    Dita Von Teese

    I think she looks fabulous! A little campy, sure, but as someone who considers Wanda Woodward a style icon, I say that's a good thing ;) I wonder if she's going to keep those bangs? (They might even be clip-ons, I guess). I hope she does!

    Wardrobe Collections - When to say when?

    Oh cool, now I don't feel so guilty about my two closets and three chests of drawers :D Like a lot of you, it seems, I'm pretty heartless when it comes to RTW. Really, most of my RTW and 60s/70s retro (my personal "vintage cut-off" is 50s) gets traded at my local consignment store very fast to...

    Ladies show us your best.

    Lolita Haze, that dress is jaw-droppingly gorgeous!! What a skirt; it's just begging to be danced in! KittyAnneMalloo, that dress is adorable! If you don't mind my asking, is it actual vintage or repro? If it's actual vintage, it's amazingly vibrant for a cotton day dress; pretty fabulous...

    How Would You Feel If...

    This had me giggling, but perhaps it's not a bad idea lol. Thanks for the mention, BoPeep! I do worry that the Golden Era interest/lifestyle will die out soon; I mean, I've never met anyone remotely close to my age (18) who has any special interest in any aspect of vintage culture, be it old...

    *Obnoxious* Vintage Fashions you LOVE

    OK, I know I am going deep into tacky territory... but I love vintage sqaure dancing dresses! I never can pass one up, hehe. (sadly, none of these lovely frocks are mine...I stole these pics from google images)

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    "Glamour Nannas"... haha, that's the perfect term!! It reminds me of the fabulous Iris Apfel: Seriously, older ladies tend to have the best style. They generally have seen it all at that point and dress to please themselves, and have so much fun. Miss Sofia, what a sweet compliment. Today...

    Remix Shoes!!

    My golden-colored Remix wedges are the love of my life! They really are the most comfortable and well-crafted shoes I've ever worn; it feels like I'm in flats or sneakers. As a matter of fact, since we've finally started getting warm weather, I've been wearing them almost every day. As soon...

    Dita Von Teese

    This picture made me do a quick google search to find out if she was small or he was tall, and it turns out Dita's quite petite: about 5'4 to 5'6. As a shorter gal myself, this gives me hope that I don't need to be willowy and 6' tall to look as fabulous as her one day lol!

    Can you help me date this item??

    Thanks, Lauren! Yeah, it was a devil to photograph; it's pretty non-descript looking, plus shiny and black. From what little I really know about antique stuff, that sounds about right, as it has no boning and is pretty loose in shape. I'm so nerdily excited to have something so old in my closet :D!
