    Does wearing vintage Get you noticed by the opposite sex?

    Thank's buddy! I'll take that as a complement! Of coarse I'm talking about a woman who had triplets (2 boys and a girl) then about four months later did a half marathon...I kid you not! A half marathon! Hell! My opinion is simple. No pain means NO PAIN! I don't know how the hell she does it.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    I'm right there with you as far as Deadwood is concerned! I recently watched the two seasons of HBO's Carnivale. I liked the dust bowl backgrounds and the gritty characters. Though I thought it took waaay too much time to progress the story. I would have liked to see it more like Supernatural.

    Does wearing vintage Get you noticed by the opposite sex?

    I found it was ironic that my missus started dressing vintage and street smart when we first started dating. In fact that's what caught my eye. The girl next door look, with a long strawberry blond ponytail, wearing a cute plaid romper, asking me where the book store was.... Stole my heart...

    Good for you darlin'! I'm glad to see someone sticking to their guns! Thing is, I'll bet that the others can only wish they looked as good as you! Chances are that when you're boppin', they're more than likely watching you. Especially the fellas!

    What sparked your fascination with the "Golden Era"?

    Coming from a single parent household, I also was brought up mostly by my grandparents. My Grandpa was a factory worker and lived by a working class ethic. He also maintained the style he lived with. After he died I dressed the way I did out of necessity rather than choice. Cuffed jeans because...

    The Curse of Indiana Jones

    My buddies and I were on our way from a reenactment. We were for the most part wearing banded collars, wool pants with suspenders, vests, one was wearing his frock coat..... we stopped at a gas station to fuel up when a couple long haired plug-uglys saw us and said, "Dude check it out...Amish!"...

    Johnny Depp in talks to Play The Thin Man

    OK I could have lived without Alice and Willy Wonka. Both were waaaaay too creepy in a bad touching kinda way....yuck! But JD has also brought his A game to many other movies. In the first place he has a great likeness to Nick. He is of coarse one of the top box office draws. He can seriously...

    Hat making?? Learning Millinery..

    Hey Hugh! If it hasn't been mentioned, thanks for your service to our country! As a serviceman and LEO, I know what it's like. On January 5th of this year I sustained a severe concussion and have been off of work dealing with PTSD. It's strange, I spent ten years as an infantryman and had no...

    Ask a question, get an answer

    I would totally agree with the above. Also since it wasn't mentioned, the originals that can still be found are much nicer and I think have more character than the new models. I'd put out a request and see if anyone has a vintage lid they might want to part with. I personally bought a couple new...

    I'm wondering as to who makes Merinos and Selentino hats and caps. Anyone have their contact info? They're 8pieces look pretty sharp, but does anyone have experience with their hats or caps? Thanks again!

    Very cool! I never heard of Harry James, I'll have to do some research now. I love it when you find gold on a crappy day! Thanks for the advice!

    Does vintage clothing attract a rude/violent response?

    He actually gave you the finger? I think that's one of the most pathetic examples I've ever heard. It's almost funny how sad that is, that some loser would go out of his way just to physically react to you. Talk about being stuck in Summer School. In other words, "No Class"! And Miss C-Dot...
