Oh my goodness, there are so many gorgeous ladies in this thread I can't handle it! Too much beauty inspiration!
Hadley, you have such a fabulous smile!
The thrift stores I go to in LA are rarely any good. Most are completely picked through. However, back in the Bay Area I can usually find some great things! It has gotten more expensive, but it's still cheaper than Ebay or a vintage shop, so it's worth it to me.
Well I found the color! It's "Eager" by MAC. It's not matte, but one of their "lustre" shades. I figure I could tap a little loose powder onto it to make it more matte if I want to though. It's pretty close to the color of the towel, I'm pretty happy!
Hahah, oh no! I haven't seen that movie. Our parents haven't met yet, but luckily my dad speaks Spanish fluently, otherwise we'd probably have a lot of awkward moments! Yikes!
My boyfriend and I often think about things like this since we are both very into vintage and he is Mexican and I am white. Watching movies like American Me really gets us thinking about how different things would have been back then. It can still sometimes be a challenge today when people think...
I have a ton of cute rockabilly/vintage-inspired clothes by Lucky 13 up on Ebay right now and will be putting up some more shortly. I have sizes ranging from XS-XL, including cardigans, dresses, t-shirts, skirts, tote bags and more! Check em out and keep checking back because I'll be putting up...
I just took some photos of myself in the dark beige one, but I probably look a little silly since my hair isn't styled well for the scarf right now!
I can tie it around the back pretty easily, it looks quite like the scarf you're wearing in your avatar! Tying it in the front looks cute too...
Thanks for the tips ladies! I'm not really sure how nice coral pink will actually look on me, but we'll see! I just want something a little more summery than red.
Shrinking Violet, that NARS lipstick looks beautiful! I love the color.
Hi ladies! I promised I would post these darling nylon chiffon headscarves for sale once I got back to my parent's house. Now that I'm home, I've decided to put them up for sale to you dolls before I put them on Ebay!
They are all sealed, deadstock "Contour Chiffon Contour Wind Hoods" that are...
When I go thrifting or to estate sales I act like everyone is after me and my stuff. I probably look totally paranoid! Luckily at my favorite thrift store they have shopping baskets so I don't have to precariously balance 50lbs of junk on every part of my body.
Fortunately, I have a really...
So I'm kinda getting sick of plain old red lipstick everyday! I've been wearing it since 9th grade, so maybe it's time to switch it up a bit.
Today I decided to wear some Besame Red Berry Lip Glaze from a sample I had and I really loved the color, but not the sheer, stickiness of it.
On me...
I was called for jury duty the second I turned 18. Luckily I was in college so they let me off the hook. I watch too many Law & Order shows but I don't think I'd like to hear about the real thing.
I love high-waisted or natural waisted jeans. I managed to snag a pair of Imitation of Christ jeans for $60 (they normally retail at $200), and now I wish I got 2 pairs since they are all I wear.
Apparently Levi's is coming out with a 1950's repro pair (side zipper w/ a snap on the side) in...
From the Distillers song "The Young Crazed Peeling" I got so many lyrics screwed up, but the best was:
"He's the prettiest thing we've got the same DeSoto" is really "He's the prettiest thing we've got the same disorder"
I always wanted to see a picture of her and Tim Armstrong's matching...
Since I live in Los Angeles, it's rarely TOO cold outside. I'm also the sort of person that gets hot easily, so a girdle and regular nylon stockings are enough to keep me warm. I also have a great, super tight pencil skirt that hits me about mid-calf, which does the trick for keeping me warm as...
Wow, everyone's been getting such great stuff! I'm going home in a few days and will be putting up about a million things on Ebay (including some vintage, I'll let ya'll know in the classifieds!) so after I'm done with that hopefully I'll have enough money to go on a tremendous shopping spree...
Unfortunately, I don't have a bath tub, so I don't have too much choice. So far I haven't had any problems. I've only done this with cotton dresses and haven't had any fading or any water marks left behind.
Dry cleaning is a big no-no, right? What about the ones that are geared towards...
