New Ladies and Gents Step Forward
I'm still new, though I've been chatting it up around here. Found this terrific place through vintage hair and makeup communities on LiveJournal. My interest lies mostly with the 1920s and 1930s, and I've recently discovered the joys of silent film / pre-codes. :) I'm 30, work as assistant...- Avalon

Do you have a nickname?
My name is Jennifer, so I get called Jen a lot. "Jenny" is for my cousins, they're the only people I let call me that (except for the occasional one from my SO). When I worked retail I was called "J.R." for my initials (and because there were other Jennifers there! lol). My mom still calls me...- Avalon

Beauty Bargains
I've already sung the praises of NYC cosmetics, so I'll refrain from repeating myself...just go check them out. I don't think any of their products are above $3. Moisturizer / Body lotion: CVS (storebrand) baby lotion. Asborbs quickly, leaves no greasy residue and smells lovely. About $2... -

I've got that laaazy feeling
Exactly. Even though it's a velvet track suit, it looks clean, stylish and put-together. Oh, and I wear my black maryjanes most of the time. I even have maryjane sneakers! lol- Avalon

I've got that laaazy feeling
I have to admit, I'm another of those track suit ladies. :rolleyes: Though lately I've been wearing white or black palazzo pants under a tunic shirt - my version of the dress-and-lounge slacks combo in my favorite pic of Jean Harlow: What I'd really love is a set of beach pajamas! :)- Avalon

HBO's Carnivale

HBO's Carnivale
I adored this show. ADORED IT. It was my absolute favorite and was cut down in its prime. Brother Justin was such an interesting, complex character. I miss Carnivale. *sigh*- Avalon

Was Your Hometown Retro?
I live in a small town on Long Island, and it hurts to see the destruction done in the name of "progress". I (along with other community members) tried to save our single-screen movie house built in the 40s, but it was gutted and currently is a showroom for boats. :( The day they took the...- Avalon

It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (1966)
It's not quite a remake, but "I Want a Dog for Christmas, Charlie Brown" focuses on Rerun, Linus' little brother. For me, it lacks the charm of the original specials and I don't like it much. The "Great Pumpkin" and "Christmas" specials, however...those are like childhood in a box. I adore...- Avalon
