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!
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...
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...
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...
Ricki, I've not tried ordering anything from Shady Lady, mostly because of being in the UK, but there is a website there (have seen no updates to it ever, it must be said). What have you ordered from there and how long ago, if I may ask?

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...
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...
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...
