    Where did your user name come from??

    After mulling it over for quite a spell, I finally decided on a username after my favourite musician, the inimitable (and well dishy) Bunny Berigan! Ay-ay-ay!

    Ann Dvorak: Does Anyone Remember Her?

    I very recently saw her in a short film over here, something made for the war effort. I was very surprised to see her in a British film until I looked her up on IMDB and read she moved over here after her career didn't quite go to plan over there. I love pre-codes, and she was brilliant in...

    Lipstick Application 101

    Never too Busy to B Beautiful Thank you Goldfish for passing on that information about them going out of business. Do you know if Lush is going out of business, too? Crikey, I'd better buy that stuff up then! Coincidentally just today I was on the hunt for "the perfect red", as always, and...

    Lipstick Application 101

    Lip Scrubs I've come across a gorgeous lip scrub from Never Too Busy to B Beautiful - bubblegum flavoured, utterly delicious, and best of all vegan. There are chocolate and mint flavours, too, which I've not tried, and I feel like I can dispense with the balm afterward as it's got jojoba in...

    1940s wardrobe essentials

    basic 40's long-sleeved blouses I third that motion! I've been looking for one of these for an age. The holy grail. If anything vintage even vaguely of the type comes up on Ebay, invariably there are "issues" like underarm yellowing with them. I was hoping Big Beautiful Barbara Brown...

    Vintage Dance Clothing

    30's inspired dance clothing Thank you everyone for your help with my question. Snookie, those Whitey's clips completely answered it (and yep, those skirts seemed mighty close-fitting for the dancing being done in them! I noticed in another clip they were wearing much shorter, fuller ones with...

    Vintage Dance Clothing

    outfits for dance - 30's inspired I'm in the process of putting together a vintage/vintage-inspired wardrobe, and in particular am trying to put together a few outfits that would be suitable for dancing (read: easy-care, practical and something I can glow in!), but with more of a 1930's look...

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    Hello One and All! I'm a Yankee expat living in wonderful London, making a living teaching Pilates/Yoga. I've just posted my first in another corner of the Lounge, but thought after lurking for a period of time longer than I'd care admit to that it was high time that I introduce myself...

    Those forgotten actor/actresses..

    Hello everyone, I've been lurking for an embarrassingly long time but have finally been tempted out of hiding for my first post by the mention of Robert Ryan! Although I had seen him before in several other films, I saw him a couple of days ago in Beware, My Lovely and was absolutely...
