    long commute

    And I'll bet the horse apples didn't smell as bad as the fast food some individuals are ungracious enough to eat on the buses these days *yucky* . I teach around my area, in gyms and and in peoples homes...I have anywhere from 1hr 20 min to 2 hour commute (public transport + shank's mare) for...

    Which decade is the worst in terms of style?

    Am I a bad person if reading this made me involuntarily guffaw?

    Sorry deleteduser, think I just missed you! But this time I am really going to try to sleep...Night all :(

    Night Owls only

    Hoot hoot...I am currently wide awake but must soon force myself to go to bed as I have an a.m. class to teach. I am so looking forward to the following 3 days off, where I know I will be naturally going to bed later and later (last week I was off to bed at 8 a.m. by day 3!). I like mornings...

    Time's Top 10 Things We Miss About the Mad Men Era

    She looks normal to me. Gorgeously normal. Bravo to her for not bowing to pressure to make her thighs the same circumference as her calves!

    Can you help me date this item??

    Excellent idea for a thread, deleteduser! As someone also relatively new to vintage sometimes I get a bit confused with the finer points of fashion by era...hope this becomes a sticky! Oh, and I want that outfit, too :D .

    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    Oh my lord - I almost died watching this! Only a few hours ago we were taking the p**s out of these kind of people, and joking about taking out our greyhound all kitted up "street" - big gold chain with a big gold dollar sign on it, a turned around baseball cap, a pair of Doggles and...pants...

    Dita Von Teese

    Nah, Jordan, Lindsay or Dita...you must choose one! I can't think off the cuff anyway of modern celebs who don't get their kit off in public, or shoot up, snort lines or puke in public. Okay, Dame Judy Dench ;) .

    Dita Von Teese

    I guess I missed that particular interview...:rolleyes: Let me put it this way, if you could pick a role model from the following list: a)Lindsay Lohan b)Jordan c)Dita von Teese That was my only point, really, that what gets put out there for the public to turn our adulation to, let's...

    Dita Von Teese

    I third that. Where celebrity ladies who act like ladies and look like ladies are pretty thin on the ground, even if she has the personality of a pet rock I'm all for her. :)

    Your alter Golden-age ego?

    Jean Arthur - mostly her real-life personality, but with quite a bit of the onscreen screwball comedy dame on top. If only I were that gorgeous and had that great voice [huh]...

    Time's Top 10 Things We Miss About the Mad Men Era

    I'll never forget the show where I saw the "People Pushers" in Japan whose job it is to cram the human cattle into the train...I try to think of that when I get fed up during rush hour on the Tube... I'm not really a car aficionado, hence being stuck with abovementioned public transport, but...

    Footwear for Winter

    I have a pair of grey suede boots (which are neither elegant nor vintage-y) which I've had for years now, have probably never cleaned, look nearly pristine and still feel very "suede-y". It's almost as if Gunther von Hagens has had a go at them...:eek:

    Witch Hazel

    The Boots Rosewater & Glycerine had the same effect on me; in fact, it felt like my skin was desiccating, not hydrating. I think it is the glycerine that does that. Shame - love the packaging. I'm going to order some of the Theyer's peach for my mom to bring over when she visits - it's...

    Not Like New... Like Vintage!

    I believe we're starting to reap what has been sown in that respect, where MacDonald's fare has become a basic food group and obesity and preventable conditions are rife. But there's just for me the basic idea that hey, even cavepeople could prepare a meal for themselves - how far have we come...

    Learning to Dance

    Thank you so much all for your advice on following - I do hope it is just a phase I'm going through and one day it will "click" (or that I'll have had my nose in that dictionary so long that the foreign language will make sense). The trust thing may be an issue...:rolleyes: I shall try and...

    any health/exercise aficionados out there?

    And I do one sit up per day - the first half when I get up in the morning, the second when I go to bed at night ;) . In reality, I teach Pilates and Yoga for a living. I love to do dance and martial arts. Any exercise which doesn't require 100% mental engagement (and truth be told, an...
