    Oooh gorgeous! I'm a huge fan of wiggle dresses but, as deadpandiva says, it's incredibly hard to get them to fit - they have to fit so perfectly and there are so many different proportions to be taken into consideration! They are always too short in the waist for me and too big around the boobs!

    FREE ELVGREN PICTURES FROM 2007 DIARY

    I had a Gil Elvgren pin-ups diary last year and it seems such a waste to just throw away all the pictures. I'm a terrible hoarder and I already have too much 'stuff' littering my house so would anyone else like them? They are all full colour and just over A5 in size on reasonably heavy-weight...

    Cleaning Kid Gloves

    Thanks for the advice people. I'm a little scared to wash them in case they do dry out or shrink. Would it be worth buying a home dry-cleaning kit? I've never bought one before so I don't know what they include.

    I had THE BEST find over the weekend - a suitcase in my parents' attic full of clothes I thought had got lost in my move to London 3 and a half years ago!! 3 vintage blouses, 1 vintage skirt, 2 pairs high waisted trousers, a red dress suit, a gorgeous repro dress and tons more! It absolutely...

    What are you wearing today??

    All gorgeous Lyburnum - and your hair looks so beautiful and shiny! This was my outfit (from the shoulders up!) on sunday out walking in the sunshine in Devon:

    Johanna: It IS looking especially lovely - how did you get your ponytail to go into a ringlet like that? Mine just points every which way, even when my hair is long!

    We're not dissing him... we're just scared of looking like this: Great actor, sex symbol - yes. Hairstyle icon - no. ;)

    Cleaning Kid Gloves

    Any thoughts? I'm not sure if they are actual kid leather but they are very very soft fine leather and lined. They are cream so they get very mucky and they charge me £20 at the dry cleaners!

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    This is a question for the british gals - I'm always a bit nervous about buying shoes listed in US sizes. I'm a UK 4.5 - does anyone know what US size that is? I think it's a 7-7.5. Anyone care to offer an opinion?!

    Yup - very small! I'm usually an 8 in the modern world. I know a 10 is a 24" waist in Vivien's sizing but not sure about bust and hips. You could always call the shop and get them to give you the measurements of the overalls - I'm sure they would oblige. I am honestly NOT going to use that...

    Well, I'm not busty and there is a lot of room for maneouvre in there! I was actually considering taking them in a little under the arms. So you might get away with it. I'm a 32C/D if that helps you to work it out. Leg length will probably be a bit much (I'm 5'9") but they can always be taken...
