I used to have the most beautiful soft layered net petticoat that had belonged to my mother in the fifties. The net had a rainbow of soft colours and white polkadots sigh but it was so fragile and I wasn't too good at taking care of my vintage clothes in my teens so it pretty much...
This was me and my baby last night, going out for my birthday drinks:
Skirt from Vivien of Holloway, vintage silk blouse from Revival in Totnes, vintage (fake) pearls from Portobello market, vintage shoes from The Real McCoy, seamed hold-ups from vintagecollecting.co.uk :)
My new saddle shoes just arrived and they are too small :(
I'm going to put them back on ebay but before I do would any small-footed gal here like to take them off my hands? They are a UK 3.5 - 4 and I'll sell them for a tenner plus postage. They are deadstock but there is a teensy bit of...

Fleur: they only came in one length as far as I could tell but miraculously they are long enough for me, although I've had to turn down the turn-ups! Vivien's trousers are always too short for me but these are spot on.
Goldwyn Girl: the fabric is a heavy weight, yet soft, cotton twill I...
Has anyone seen Lust Caution yet?
Also, if we are talking about favourite movies for style content then for me it is Pal Joey... the succession of women who troop through Frank Sinatra's flat are all wearing the most beautiful suits, outfits and hats. Killer hair too.
Hope this is ok, just a little bit of self-promotion... I'm selling off a load of bullet bras in the classified section. I spent ages buying various sizes from Ebay until i found the right one at last and these are all the rejects that didn't quite fit (or anywhere near fit - 28E???! Who was I...
I just won this for £4.99:
I think it's probably going to be a little big but I couldn't resisit that green!
Also, some new saddle shoes - deadstock for £12.50:
Now... I must stop spending money!!!
I have fro issues too, as you can all imagine now you've seen my wild fuzzy bushy au naturel look!
I really like my eyebrows these days - I always hated that i had these big thick black Groucho Marx brows when I was younger but now I'm glad I have them - it's better to start with too much...
Well first off, thank you!
I did the back by gathering it like I was going to do a low ponytail, then putting a clip across the bottom of the hair and rolling it up over the clip until it meets the back of my head. Then I pinned it in place. It didn't stay in all day but my hair isn't quite...
Well I'm 5'9" and I have a long body so they might just be long enough for me if I'm lucky. I'm so glad that the modern fashion world is finally embracing the concept of clothes that actually fit to our natural waistlines - I am so sick of seeing the top of people's thongs!
