    Vintage Manicures

    Beautiful! I've been wanting to do my nails like that for awhile now, but since I'm an art major and always working with my hands, it's not really worth the effort. I remember once when I was little asking my grandma to paint my nails and she did it how she used to do it when she was young...

    Pick me up...

    Boy, do I need a pick me up today! I woke up in the middle of the night last night only to spend an hour and a half in front of the toilet throwing up everything I ate! And I've still got a final paper to write for my women's studies class. Yikes! Normally I would take a bath in these...

    Holiday Baking

    Chocolate-covered biscotti (or white chocolate & peppermint!) is a nice holiday gift and easy to bake. You could package them with hot chocolate or a holiday-themed tea and it would be really cute!

    What goodies are on sale!?

    That's why I love Stop Staring dresses, they fit me like a dream. When I'm wearing jeans and a blouse, most people don't think I'm curvy just because I'm small, but I definitely am! It is so nice to be able to wear a dress that hugs all the right places. Too often I find myself trying on modern...

    Why? Why? WHY?!!!!!!!!

    I'm exactly the same on the suits as well! I am pretty petite, and have very narrow shoulders, so its pretty much impossible for me to find ANY type of jacket, coat, cardigans even (!) that will fit me in the shoulders.

    People are just too afraid to have fun!

    I absolutely love to dance and sing, even though I can't do either at all. I especially love it if I have a few drinks in me, but that's not even necessary to get me dancing in the most embarrassing way ever. Luckily, almost all of my friends are like that too, so we throw some awesome dance...

    Why? Why? WHY?!!!!!!!!

    I'm a 26 inch waist, but I never find stuff my size! Would you mind letting me know which seller has this stuff? Pretty please? The problem with me is that I have a 33/34 inch bust (B cup), and most dresses I seem to find that fit my waist and hip measurements are too big in the bust. It...

    Deja Vu & Recurring Dreams!

    I very rarely have deja vu (I hope that's not a bad sign!), but recurring dreams are not uncommon for me. The 2 themes that show up the most in my dreams are usually scary stormy oceans (I'm usually on land, but on a bridge or on a beach with no easy way out) or someone is attacking me or my...

    Bullet bras and 50's dresses?

    Thank you for all the suggestions ladies! I've been meaning to get a bullet bra-esque bustier or merry widow for awhile now, so I might as well chance it and see if it works out! Well I had my friend take a look at it and she said it was constructed very oddly. I don't know anything about...

    True, I definitely have my grandma's figure going on! That's one of the reasons why I got interested in vintage clothing in the first place. It felt amazing to be in clothes that I didn't feel uncomfortable in! I still wear jeans everyday, but the pulling them over my hips every 5 minutes thing...

    They cups are very natural, its that kinda not pointy/not round shape, you know? Here's the URLs to photos of the inside and outside, lying flat (if you want bigger/better pictures, just let me know!) http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d74/pigeontoe/vintageclothes/12_2006022.jpg...

    I just recieved this cute little 1950's (maybe earlier) bustier/bra thing for $10 on ebay. It's gorgeous in real life (and fits!), the picture doesn't do it justice! When I tried it on though, it was the first time I had ever worn anything that cinched my waist but not my hips. It was scary...

    Stand up and be counted

    I'll start! I don't know how much info you want, but I lived in Long Island, New York until I was 8, then my family moved to the San Francisco Bay Area (Marin County to be exact). Now I live in Westwood, CA, which is part of Los Angeles. I live in LA, but I feel like im more from Northern...

    Bullet bras and 50's dresses?

    Okay, so I know this board doesn't focus on the 50's that much, but I imagine you girls might be able to help me out. I bought a gorgeous deadstock 1950's dress at the vintage expo, and didn't get to try it on all the way (there were buttons at the top I couldn't reach, and my boyfriend...

    Favourite Scents

    I used to wear Elizabeth Arden's Green Tea in the beginning of high school, and then L'Occitane's Rose perfume. Now I wear Calvin Klein Eternity Moment or Calvin Klein Obsession (I think?) Night. My boyfriend's mom got me a Calvin Klein perfume set for Christmas last year, and some of them...

    Dita von Teese

    I absolutely love Dita. I think she is gorgeous and honestly, she's my role model. I went to her book signing and she's so tiny and impeccable looking! Such amazing style, and she's undeniably sexy! One day, one day I tell you, I will be the next Dita Von Teese! ;)
