    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Love Enchanted April :) Also adore Room with a View, Howard's End and the The White Countess. Some gorgeous 30s styling in the White Countess which is set in 1930's Shanghai. A very glamourous place before the rise of Communism.

    The casualization of the world

    Funny thing is that if you talk to people from the time when formality in the way we dressed was more prevavlent, many will tell you that they love some of the casualness of today. Both sets of my granparents told me that although they despised the fact that young people dressed too casually...

    Egads - stiff shoes!

    You can buy leather softner from a cobbler or shoe-repair store. Go talk to one of those guys. They are usually a great help :)

    Hair help - what am I doing wrong???

    Practice, it really is all you can do as a beginner to master vintage styles. Learning by doing is the only way, and in the end, you will develop your own techniques and styles. Watch some decent tutorials and get some good books to help. The ladies here can help :) Another tip after 12 years...

    Just bought this lovely late 30s playsuit from one of my fav sellers on Etsy - Adeline's Attic. It's my Xmas present to myself as I have always wanted one. Been looking for an original for 12 years. I don't tend to wear a lot of bright colours but I love the pattern.
