Who are you talking about? :confused: (when I feel old, I tell myself: women are like wine, they get better with age! :D) -

Beauty on the Production Line, 1950s
What a wonderful find! Thanks for posting, Tomasso. -

Okay, I might just give this a try. But I'm afraid I'd want to leave it in and walk the street with the roller. It just looks too nice :D -
Everyday Women of the Golden Era
Thanks to the unhappy fact that my maternal grandma moved to a retirement home lately, we had to divide most of her things between the family. Since my grandpa always liked to take photos, I got a few for myself: 3 photo books plus about a dozen of separate pics. I'll post most of them in the...- wahine

Sounds logical, thanks. Can't imagine to sleep on those, though. -
Funny, odd, or the most absurd ads you have ever seen....
This thread is really hilarious! I got some, too: from the 1920s: The solution for boys with crooked noses: earn money with selling bird houses, then order Anita's nose adjuster with the money earned. Perfect! from 1958/56: now look how chubby these girls are! :eusa_doh: This...- wahine

I have no idea what a permrod is but the result looks great! And so natural on you. -
What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
As someone once said, Oh I miss those times when alcoholism was a normal part of entertainment. (I think it might have been Jerry Stiller in KOQ when watching a Rat Pack show.) Last night, I watched Imitation of Life, the remake of 1959. I haven't seen the original yet, but they say the...- wahine

Haa, that's great! You're right - asymmetry is really your thing. And this one even goes wonderful with your glasses (when I had glasses, I had even more problems with finding a hat). That birthday card (if it is one) on the wall is kinda spooky though.- wahine

Good point! I was only thinking about unraveling it because I'm a real penny-pincher :D But I'll listen to you ladies and start the matching cuffs soon. No vintage pattern for that, so I'll have to improvise. Kat, I'd like to see a pic of you with an asymmetric hat! :) ps. I like your blog!- wahine

Thanks for complimenting my hair, you're a flatterer. And you sure know how to wear a big flower! Got some of those myself but I don't know where to put them without looking awkward. I'm a bit reluctant of experimenting with my shampoo since it took me a long time to find what works for me... -

Does any of you know if the tap water quality can affect your hair in a mentionable way? I moved to a new town, and my hair is not the same. It doesn't hold a curl as it used to. They say the tap water here has a lot of lime / calcium carbonate in it. But since I had a new hair cut shortly after... -

Sewing Lessons & FAQ
I agree with crwitt, I wouldn't be too optimistic about dying poly. When I was young, I used to paint small pieces with a permanent marker. That took virtually forever and considering the cost of the marker, there wasn't much money saved. But, I was young... ;) btw, after washing it, the stuff...- wahine

Show us your vintage knitting and crochet!
:D Thanks a lot, clabbergirl and sheeplady! :o clabbergirl, how do you pin such a thing? I have pretty straight hair and my new haircut doesn't hold a curl properly. No idea why. The only way I can think of so far is putting two pin curls crosswise. But it'll be kinda hard to stick it that...- wahine

DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects
Thanks for posting this. As often as I have seen this scene, I still have to laugh. Only, this time my laugh turns into a cry for the first time. We'll miss him! There'll never be one like him.- wahine
