    Collectible Fashions of the Turbulent 1930s- Ellie Laubner

    Marc, there is one chapter on Mens I could scan- let me know where would be a good thread for it. :) Miss Sis, they still have it available on Amazon, and I think the price is actually less than when I bought it a couple years ago.

    To bob or not to bob?

    Aorta- here's my hair when it's not curled. Excuse the no-smile- I had taken these for my SIL to take to her hair stylist :) I'd think you could do the fingerwaves the regular way. I have a hard time doing them to myself, but I can do them on others. Maybe have a friend help? The...

    Pollys and Spring-o-lators!

    I was at Vintage Martini on saturday and he had a red pair. My size, but I couldn't get it on- my foot's too wide. But they were sure cute! And a great price! http://www.vintagemartini.com/clothing/shoes/post30s/1960/pages/1758.html

    The Rules of Matching

    No, that's fine. I'm sorry if I wasn't clear. I said reenacting, I shouldn't have assumed. It just seems like to me there would have been more "rules" about matching back then, but maybe I'm wrong. I'll take a look through my catalogs, but most of the pages are b/w. Also I found the post...

    The Rules of Matching

    What I'm really after is not so much how we do it now, but how they did it back in the day. I'm thinking Miss 1929 had posted something in a thread, but I can't find it?

    The Rules of Matching

    In my daily wardrobe, I try not to get too matchy-matchy. But when I do reenacting, I try to get as accurate as I can. In the past, I've mainly done black. Easy to match ;) But I've gotten a couple new hats, a red one, as well as a burgundy and a kelly green. So what's a girl to do? Do you...

    Public Enemies

    Edward, here are a couple of trivia items from imdb As incredible as it may seem, the scene where John Dillinger walks into the Chicago Police station and talks to police officers is based in fact. Dillinger was so cocky and sure of himself that he often would stop and chat with policemen...

    Umbrellas & Parasols!

    Thanks ya'll! They usually go high, but I got it for $34 with shipping. I guess sales are really slow on ebay- except for the dresses in my size-lol. Lauren, if you set up a search, do umbrella and parasol because sellers use both terms. :)
