    What is your biggest vice?

    It's probably considered a vice in Singapore! ;)

    Dita von Teese

    Dita has never claimed that she's not a stripper. In her book and all the interviews I've read/seen/heard with her she's always said that she's just the same as every other stripper, she just does it with a different style. And I think it's a stretch to claim she has "daddy issues". She seems...

    Can I 2-tone my hair myself?

    Would you have to use the same technique with permanently dyed black hair with bright semi-perm green streaks? That's what I want to do this summer, but I've been worried about bleeding too.

    any old-school housewives??

    I'm a total feminist and I am in support of both stay at home moms and working moms, as long as it's there choice! What's wonderful about these times is that we CAN choose. That's what feminists have been fighting for all these years. That being said though, I don't know if I could ever be a...

    Lush Life

    I went to my first one in London too, when I was 14. I bought "I Should Coco" soap (coconut scented), and it quickly became a favorite. Every time I use it I remember what it felt like to be in London for the first time. My friend used to work at the SF one, and every time I'd go she'd give me...

    Embarrassing Moments

    Probably the worst for me was when I popped a seam in one of my stockings at the QM and had to change into a new pair...in my car! Who knows if anyone saw, but it probably looked rather suspicious when my boyfriend had his head up my skirt trying to fix my garters for me. The car was so...

    VintageGoth?

    Yes, she has such beautiful skin! I just love people who have a personal style that they are really into. I never understood why people wanted to wear the same thing as everyone else. I can't wait to get home this summer and have my boyfriend dye my hair green and black! :)

    High Waisted Pants & Jeans!

    Lux is a good brand, and most of their jeans have a stretch to them too. They come in a variety of different waist lengths so you can find one that works for you! I also bought a pair of Imitation of Christ jeans (not the exact pair Scarlett Johansen is wearing in the picture above, but the...

    Elderly Reactions To Vintage

    I've never really gotten comments from the older generation, which I think is strange! Even my grandma couldn't care less that I wear FF stockings! She just thinks I'm a little nuts. :) Most of the compliments I get tend to be from people around my age or a little older. The only exception to...

    High Waisted Pants & Jeans!

    Maybe try Urban Outfitters (urbn.com)? I don't know if they ship internationally, but they carry the brand Lux which makes good high waisted jeans. The reason why I like Lux as opposed to Acne or Cheap Monday is because they are cut for women with hips. My friend, who is very slim and has no...

    Do you use conditioner?

    I always use conditioner or else my hair gets puffy and frizzy, which is a rather unpleasant sight! I use heavy conditioners as well, and even though I have thin-ish hair (and a TON of it), it never weighs it down. I usually do hot sets though, and I dye my hair, so it probably needs heavier...

    Home Fragrances

    I was actually thinking about this the other day. Since I've been living in Europe, away from home, family and my boyfriend, I was wondering if I would notice those particular "smells" that you get used to when you're around them all the time. When I first started dating my boyfriend, he had...

    Concealable purses

    Those are a great idea! I would definitely use one of those for going to a show or a club. It's such a pain having to hold your back all night, and sometimes even worse to check it! Last time I was at a club and checked my bag there was such an intense and suffocating crowd at the coat check...

    So what is the Fedora Lounge all about?

    Regardless of whether we consider ourselves peers or not, I just hope everyone here doesn't judge other's based on their age. We have such a diverse range of ages here, which I think is wonderful. I would hate if someone were to think that what I had to say was frivolous just because I'm 20...

    Excellent points, Idledame! :)

    What Are You Reading

    Right now I'm reading Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert for an English class. It's not as horrible as I thought it would be! It's a long book though, and I only have another week to finish it, so I need to dedicate some hours to it tonight.

    What's up with our eyeliner?

    I'm still uncertain about whether this look works with my eyes. I want to try it using eyeshadow (I think Johanna does this, I've looked at some of her photos and it doesn't look like liquid liner or regular pencil liner), or a more subtle shade other than jet black. I'm pretty clueless when...

    Nothing but Seamed Stockings

    Congrats on your first pair of stockings Fleur! Once I started I could never go back. I opted out of wearing them with a dress one night and I felt so bizarre being bare-legged. Never again! :) Good luck with the pink eye. I got it a few months back, it was so embarrassing wearing sunglasses...

    The Cleaning Clothes (vintage or other) Thread

    I've handwashed a 40's silk rayon slip with no problems. However, I don't know much about rayon, so it might have been a different type or the fact that it was silk rayon that kept it from shrinking on me. If this doesn't fit into the thread, let me know, but what do you gals do about ironing...

    What has happened to society?

    True. And I also agree that certain events (funerals, weddings, nice restaurants, etc.) require a "dress code" of sorts. I just think people need to recognize that not everyone has access to the same quality of clothing that many of us regard as "nice". Someone who doesn't have much money might...
