    WHAT did I just do to my hair...

    Yikes! Secretly, though, I've always wanted to shave my head and just start over. My hair has gone through so many changes over the years I wanna see what it looks like new. My hair dresser says I have 3 times the amount of hair of the average customer! It's such a hassle, sometimes I just...

    Freakish Weather

    It's been ridiculously cold in LA for the past couple of days Alright, maybe it was in the 60's, but for some reason its much easier for me to handle rainy, 40 degree weather in the SF area than the dry harsh cold down here! Today it was a lot warmer though. I can't take the flip flopping, it...

    Powder room Finishing School

    That's terrible! I'm a non-smoker, but my boyfriend and lots of my friends smoke, and I've never seen any of them be that rude. That's totally out of line, and unfortunately, something I see a lot of today. People are so quick to be impatient with others nowadays. It's such selfish behavior.

    WHAT did I just do to my hair...

    When I was in 9th grade I wanted to dye my hair a dark, dark blue that shines vibrant blue in the sun. So I got dark blue vegetable dye, the kind punk kids use to dye their hair, and put it over my naturally light/medium brown hair for quite a few hours (my mom wouldn't let me bleach it first)...

    Powder room Finishing School

    I completely agree, I feel everyone needs a little lesson in politeness and respect for others these days. However, as long as someone has those qualities, that's good enough for me. However, I don't think every woman should be a carbon copy "Miss Manners" type of woman if that isn't who they...

    Show Us Your Purchases!

    I was watching the second pair! They are just gorgeous, but I totally forgot to bid. At least I know someone deserving got them!

    Powder room Finishing School

    My dad gave me my table manners and my social anxiety gave me my constant politeness! Although I appreciate polite, neat people, I don't think anyone (ladies especially, since we already have a tendency to do it) should sacrifice their own personality to achieve some ultimate level of "social...

    I got offered a new modelling contract!

    Congratulations, thats so exciting! I always wanted to model, but when I got my chance (modeling for an art photographer), it was really hard! It's very difficult not to space out when youre sitting or standing still for so long. Or maybe thats just my ADD! ;) Anyway, congrats!

    Waiting for Classic Style Magazine

    I got a subscription for my boyfriend as an early Christmas gift, but as far as I know, it hasn't arrived yet for him either. I'm super excited for it!

    Hair dye - vintage style

    It's not the same thing as hair dye, but my boyfriend has a pomade (not original, but is one of those brands that looks like it hasnt changed in decades) that is supposed to darken greying hair. It's clear, and one of the main ingredients is lead! I thought that was illegal now?! Yikes!

    Stockings and peep toe shoes?

    This is something I've been pondering for awhile now, so maybe some of you ladie's know the answer! Wearing stockings, or hose, with open toed or peep toe shoes is definitely a fashion faux pas nowadays, but what did ladies from the 40's do? Did they still wear their stockings with their peep...

    Keeping that lipstick ON your lips

    I just bought Mac Retro Matte lipstick in Ruby Woo, since I've heard it recommended often! I'm used to really glossy lipsticks though, so it's weird to adjust to. When I put it on it first, with a lip brush, it looked great! But by the time I got to work, it was disappearing in the center...

    Vintage Television restoration: SF Bay Area?

    Does anyone know of any in LA/Southern California? My boyfriend picked up a 1962 color television for $15 and we wanna get it working again!

    What do you look like?

    I don't think I've ever posted a picture of myself, so here they are! They are really bad quality (scans from contact sheets), but they are from a shoot I did last weekend with the photographer Ye Rin Mok (http://yerinmok.com). It was my first time ever getting my photo taken by a photographer...

    Comfortable Vintagey Shoes?

    I can't wear heels very easily either (flat feet!), but the "Capri" wedgies at http://remixvintageshoes.com/ are so comfortable it's ridiculous! I bet any of their other "wedgie" styles are just as comfy too. I wore them out to the vintage expo and was walking around for 3 hours and only had to...

    Ladies: Is your spouse/S.o. into vintage?

    My boyfriend is very much into vintage everything, but especially cars and housewares (he's starting to collect vintage radios and tvs, and now we're running out of room). He even shaves with a straight razor! His style of dress has gone from being more 1950's greaser to leaning more towards...

    Credo of the new Vintage Lady

    You should add on to that one that a New Vintage Lady must also know when to use her voice. Too many ladies hold back their opinions out of feeling the need to be "polite", whereas men's opinions are quite often respected. Women need to use their voice if they want respect -- at the very...

    Sanitary Belts

    Oops, I should've read your post all the way through before I posted mine! I don't use my cloth pads all the time either, so when I don't I try to use the brand "Natracare" pads. I'm not really a fan of tampons, but they make unbleached tampons as well. The pads are made from unbleached cotton...
