    The Golden Era's *ugliest* clothes

    Every night why do I shake with fright? 'cause my Dinah might change... INTO THIS DRESS!!! :eek:

    Which decade is the worst in terms of style?

    That is truly a shocker. If that little is left to the imagination, why bother with togs at all? Just go naturist, full stop. At least naturists have a philosophy behind (no pun intended) what they do. These two are just slovenly bums, and I'd have no greater pleasure than to sneak up on...

    The worlds most expensive mens suit

    It is pretty appalling, but take a look in the Ladies area one day. Oh, Uggs, skinny jeans, 5" heels... Plenty of cringeworthiness to be had! ;)

    Just gotta rant...vintage sellers who drive me nuts!

    I definitely see your point, as long as the markups seem to be within reason. It is one or two sellers on said auction site to whom I am referring, which seem to me beyond the pale. Some people will pay those over-the-odds prices, and to my mind, ultimately, that may affect all of us to some...

    Custom made vintage repros...

    I think I posted on this when I first joined the Lounge, but does anyone know if Shady Lady Clothing is still in business? Their website has not changed in years! There's a few things I'm so coveting on it...

    That is a brilliant bit of advice!

    Just gotta rant...vintage sellers who drive me nuts!

    What disturbs me more are certain sellers on certain auction sites who sell items, use pretty models and pretty photography and then have super-elevated starting prices or outrageous BIN's. The items for the most part aren't to my eye anything of particular rarity or exceptional quality or...

    If he's a Retrosexual, what are the Ladies?

    I just find the terminology a bit clunky and odd. I mean, hetero-, homo-, bi-, a-, I get. Even tri-, as in the old joke. There is an object to the sexuality in question. But the metro-and retro- are just way too media-speak for me. I guess "aficionado of classic style" isn't quite as...

    Custom made vintage repros...

    You know, I must have seen that photo about 10 times going through this thread, and not once did I notice anything but Dita and that gorgeous dress. Maybe my brain has been trained to separate the wheat from the chaff! I didn't think moths ate denim, by the way.:rolleyes:

    No, but Transsexual Transylvania is...;)

    Online fabric supplier - had to share...

    Ahem, Southside, Dahling :rolleyes: ...I'm surprised to hear anything of use was in the environs of the Arndale.

    Chicken Salad

    This post will be of no help whatsoever but you've gotten my salivary glands on the run now...when I lived in the States I used to get a vegetarian chicken salad at our local health food store which was out of this world...I've been really food-weary over the past few days (the heat, I think)...

    To wax or not to wax ????

    Same here - I started fairly young, with both arms and legs, and getting a sound telling off when I was found out. To this day I still have an aversion to body and facial hair, although a small "lady garden" (I love that! lol ) is acceptable to me. I split between warm sugar waxing and the...

    Shutter Island (2009)

    Now I am intrigued. I'll have to put this one on my rental list. I'd heard that this one was a bit of a rip-off of Session 9 (another one of those films that benefits from multiple viewings) so had dismissed it as a typical big-budget parasitic takeover of a superior smaller-budget film.

    You Big Softy! - Your Favourite Soft Drinks

    Luckily, we get the Chinotto 'round here in a can - more yumminess. I also really like the Limonata, which is beautifully tart and sweet, and the Orange. I've never seen the Blood Orange version. I'll definitely be scanning the Italian delis for that one!

    High Waisted Pants & Jeans!

    Coincidence - I just got a chocolate brown pair from them, but I've not worn them yet when I ordered they were on alteration vacation so decided to order and do it myself. I have 2 workhorse pair of high-waisted from Vivien of Holloway, but these seem equally nice.

    Instant nausea inducement

    EEEEEEWWWWW!!!! *yucky* Is this a line-up at the fashion police station? Looks like they blindfolded 10 people and sent 'em off to get dressed, and had a photo shoot...

    40s Make up Video

    It was pretty amazing how much those hints and tips did up the attractiveness of those basic drawings. Interesting - cheers for those!

    Ice Cream !!!!

    I have now tried both of your recipes and have but one thing to say - YUM! I'm more of a sorbet girl, myself, but I'll definitely be making the former for my mum (an ice cream addict) when she comes to visit. Cheers!
