    Biggest treasure... ME!!

    You have such a lovely home. What a great video, you are so charismatic! I feel you on that nostalgia for a time you've never known. I feel that way so often. A side note -- I'll be studying abroad at the University College of Utrecht next year for 5 months. Is there good vintage shopping...

    Gaining/maintaining weight? Slowing down metabolism?

    Are you sure you are actually underweight? My roommate is 5'5" and weighs 100 lbs, which is pretty thin. She weighed under 100 lbs until she moved to college, actually, and though she's thin, it's an appropriate weight for her (she is half Chinese/half German and both of her parents are very...

    1911 Niagara Falls, New York

    All of those photos are totally amazing. I would have loved to have seen it frozen.

    Working with Vintage

    Finding quality garments, accessories, etc. is exactly what I'm afraid of. And then the idea of the business failing is even more frightening. I would feel so horrible if it wasn't a success. In LA though, there are so many vintage shops that mostly cater to 60's-80's clothing, whereas I'm...

    dressing up?

    If all else fails, you could always buy an animal nose for $2 at a party store!

    Gaining/maintaining weight? Slowing down metabolism?

    Perhaps you could have a thyroid problem? I know that certainly affects your metabolism.

    What's in a name?

    Antique is 75 yrs old and vintage is 50, no? I try to stick with the correct words for things whenever possible. I absolutely hate the word retro! To me it just conjures up images of polyester bell-bottoms from the 70's. And those horrible 70's fro wigs.

    Working with Vintage

    Recently I just applied for a summer internship to work with the lovely Revamp Vintage, and I'm quite excited. I'm probably going for an interview next week, my first official interview ever. I hope to someday open my own vintage clothing store and I'm hoping this internship will give me some...

    Go to myspace to see pics of my new haircut!

    It's just adorable! Very few people can pull that cut off, in my opinion, but you definitely succeeded!

    Conrad Veidt (1893-1943)

    I loved him in The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. I actually wrote a 13 page historical fiction piece loosely based on the film (I had to write it for my history class senior year in high school), if anyone's interested in reading it.

    Depression Glass

    Eek! I wish I had never seen this thread, now I have one more thing I want to collect, with no rom to store it! I love the Depression Glass vanity sets. I would love to get my hands on those. For those of you that collect it, which color(s) do you prefer? I can't decide out of pink, green...

    Classic "Hollywood Golden Era" Portrait Photograpy

    Some of those are truly amazing transformations! I would love to get my portrait taken by him, but I'm afraid I wouldn't turn out quite as glamourous as those ladies!

    What are you watching?

    Lately I've been watching a whole lot of Degrassi: The Next Generation. I'm addicted! Last night I took a break from that and watched the independent film Quincenera with my boyfriend. It was really cute, I liked it a lot.

    Vintage on a First Date: Do or Don't?

    I agree with the "vintage, but fun" sentiment. If I were in your situation, I'd probably wear a cute flirty vintage dress or a skirt ensemble like you described, as opposed to one of my super high-waisted pencil skirts that gets a lot of attention. Don't be afraid to be yourself though!

    Show Us Your Purchases!

    Daisy, I LOVE the corselette. I've been dying to get my hands on one for ages. I guess I just have to keep my fingers crossed! Also -- you're new avatar is too cute!

    Which movie star are you?

    Debbie Reynolds! Somewhat accurate too.

    Moving to LA: yay or nay?

    When we first moved to California, when I was 8, we lived in Ross for 2 years. That was quite an experience! Then we moved to Kentfield. I went to Marin Academy for high school so I spent a lot of time on 4th street! My roommate grew up in Pt. Reyes. Both of you guys got lucky, West Marin is...

    Moving to LA: yay or nay?

    I grew up in Marin myself and now live in LA. I love it here, but then again, I didn't hate Marin all that much. The life I live in LA is very different from the Marin one though, mostly because my boyfriend lives in the "ghetto" and that's where I spend half my time. I don't take really any...

    Gloves: sizing, etiquette and all other stuff

    I'm in love with hats and gloves, I feel they really complete the look. Unfortunately, i only have three hats, only one of which suits me (the other two were thrift store finds that I've been meaning to sell). I also have two pairs of gloves, but neither really go with any outfits I have. I...

    Vintage clothing: when is enough, enough?

    I probably need the 12 Step Program too! But I plan on owning a vintage clothing shop in my future, so I think it's understandable that it's a huge part of my life and a passion for me. I need to calm down with the spending though! At least I'm starting to wear a lot of my pieces out more. I...
