    Precious...

    No, I'm really not a snob about it. I don't have enough money or enough vintage to be a snob! I also have to wear modern clothes out of necessity and though I always have my own twist on it, there are days where I look like every other girl (except for maybe my lipstick). The only thing that I...

    Girdles, Corsets, and Underpinnings

    I doubt it too! Even my slimmest friends only have about 22 inch waists, and hips that are only a few inches bigger.

    Mammograms

    I'm only 20, so not yet for me. At what age do they recommend you start getting them?

    Matching your partner?

    When my boyfriend and I are dressing casually, we both tend to do the casual 50's/rockabilly look. Therefore, sometimes we're both wearing plaid flannels or western shirts, which can be a little embarrassing if it happens too many times in a row! We never dress to match, but we both...

    Number of handbags and pairs of shoes?

    I'm a poor college student, so I'm lacking in both the shoe and handbag department. I'm kinda lacking in all departments, actually! I have splurged on shoes, mainly buying Remix and Aerosoles because I have horrible flat feet and they are so comfy. I also have found some good 30's oxford...

    Show Us Your Purchases!

    I went to the What Katie Did store this weekend while I was in London and treated myself to a bra and stockings. I got grey seamed stockings. Don't quite know what to wear them with yet, but I'm excited! Hopefully posting the image of the bra is allowed: I got this Maitresse bullet bra in...

    Valentines and single.

    I'm not really technically single, but I am what feels like millions of miles away from my boyfriend right now. Despite all that, some girlfriends and I are going to London tomorrow! And one if them is going to buy a bottle of champagne and some strawberries for us to pamper ourselves with...

    Your favorite body lotions?

    I like Bath & Body Works lotion in Black Raspberry Vanilla. They always have tons of sales, so it's cheap and smells oh so yummy.

    If you were told "pick one album to explain what being in love is"...

    For me it has to be Mirah's You Think it's Like This but Really It's Like This. I think I listened to the song "Sweepstakes Prize" about 500x a day when I was first falling in love with my boyfriend. The whole album sums up my feelings for him.

    Do you have a set beauty routine?

    MORNING: - Drag myself out of bed and try not to press snooze on the alarm. - Brush my teeth, check the weather. Depending on how windy or rainy it is, determine whether or not to curl my hair. Put on my clothes. - Put in Hot Sticks. Or not. - Moisturizer + sunscreen - Creme blush - Coty...

    who mixes it up?

    Some guy was describing me to a friend and kept saying, "You know, that girl that dresses like she's from the oldies!" and she kept replying, "You mean vintage?", "No, the oldies!!!". I also get that I look very 60's when I'm dressed 40's. At least they aren't saying 80's! Anyway, I "mix it...

    Who is your muse?

    My biggest muse would probably have to be my best friend, Amanda. I've been photographing her since 7th grade and she's still one of my favorite subjects. Family and friends inspire me a ton, but I'd have to say the most significant inspiration for me during the past few years has been Los...

    Altering Vintage Finds?

    I pretty much HAVE to get most dresses altered (except for "Juniors" dresses -- you'd be surprised at how much of my vintage has "Junior" or "Teen" on the tag). I am pretty petite and VERY short-waisted, so everything hits me in the most bizarre ways unless I get it altered. Normally I would...

    How to avoid looking like emo / rockabilly / scene ???

    Two of my close friends (they are a couple, girl and guy) do the whole rockabilly/psychobilly look and I think it looks great on them. I really love alternative fashions, whether it be perfect vintage or crazy 70's punk. To me, if you don't like the way something looks (emo/scene/maybe...

    What do the Men of the Lounge want for Valentine's Day?

    I really have no idea what to get for my boyfriend since I'm going to be on another continent for Valentine's Day! Last year I made a picnic, complete with dessert, and we had lunch on the grass outside of the arboretum in Santa Ana (I think it's Santa Ana, anyway). True, kinda girly, but I knew...

    What women think of mens hairdo's?

    I'm in love with neat, clean looking pompadours. Greasiness is fine with me. My only pet peeve with pomps are if they are too high and silly looking, or don't work with a guy's face. All colors are pretty much fine with me, but I have a weak spot for natural black hair. My boyfriend went...

    Do you go Commando?

    I went commando for the first time at the QM (scandalous, I know!). I had gotten a few pairs of vintage tap pants, and so I wore one over my girdle. It was AMAZING. As silly as it sounds, it was so much more comfortable and worry-free than having panties under my girdle. Going to the...
