    Lets see your Balloon Tire Bikes

    Filth! Well, I've started cleaning my bike and, boy, is it filthy, the poor neglected thing. When I laid it on it's side to take the wheels off I discovered a piece of ancient shingle wedged underneath the seat. Two steel wool pads later I finished the first cleaning of the front wheel...

    My Vintage Radio Collection

    That is such a find dhermann1! I've never seen a radio with that look before--it's wonderful. Please be sure to post pics if you end up cleaning it up (after your run in Caine, of course!).

    Music to put you in the mood

    Good call! I love that song, and it's so vintage too with the verses about vests and powder and combs. (sigh).

    LADIES of the LOUNGE

    Fabulous pictures RedHotRidinHood! You look beautiful--and good job on the dress too--love the fabric. I'm also admiring the shoes, hat and bracelet--an overall great look!

    Elizabeth: The Golden Age

    I was planning to see Elizabeth the Golden Age Friday night but the friend I was going to go with had a conflict, so tonight it was. EGA reminded me of Moulin Rouge in it's operatic and very visual style. I adored Moulin Rouge but I know plenty of people who thought it was way over the...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Wow--nice hat but I really want a shot of your full outfit, it looks fabulous!

    Do you have a crush?

    I have college friends who still call me Ella because that period was the height of my Ella Fitzgerald obsession--I actually wore out a cassette tape of Ella in Rome. It's something she does regularly, but especially during the Rome concert; I get the biggest kick out of how she sings in...

    Show Us Your OVERCOATS

    ] I love all your coats but especially 1, 5 7 and 10--10 is actually pretty close to my platonic ideal of a vintage overcoat. Thanks for taking the time to do all those photographs--I've saved them all!

    Modes Royal pattern book

    These are superfantastic BeBopBaby! Can you imagine stepping out in some of those summer frocks in the first picture? I especially like the dress on the far right. Also, I want to be the lady in the green on the far right in the second picture, please--she's very Zaza Gabor. Love the...

    Let's Retire these Cliches

    (sheepishly raises her hand) for years that was me--it took me forever not to write "definately". I do believe I'm cured now though.

    The Golden Age of Couture: Paris and London 1947 - 1957

    Yes, please do take lots of pictures! I'll be buying the book but it's always so neat to see snaps from the actual exhibit. It's breaking my heart that I can't go to this one, the website is chock-full of eye candy. http://www.vam.ac.uk/vastatic/microsites/1486_couture/ They're also having...

    Is the Lounge getting a bit.... slooooooow?

    I had considerable issues last night (but I'm hoping that it was just a fluke).

    Do you have a crush?

    Oh, Ella! Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale... Great medley, loved the pianist.

    Do you have a crush?

    Amen. A clip of ASH in full Rocky Horror garb can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lilv4d9Z7o8 Not that I had it bookmarked or anything...

    What Are You Reading

    I've interrupted finishing up Rebecca (can't believe I haven't finished that one yet--I've been so busy lately I haven't had much reading time) to zip through I Am America (And So Can You)! which arrived from Amazon yesterday--I've gotten a laugh on nearly every page.

    Let's Retire these Cliches

    "Have a good one!" which often sounds like "Havagudun!" A good one...of what? I don't know why I hate that phrase so much but I do. One that used to drive me nuts but that seems to have died out (thankfully) is "He/She's all that" or "He/She's all that and a bag of chips" if someone...

    The ones that got away

    Thank you for your encouragement AllaboutEve! That's the good thing about the vintage world, there's always something wonderful around the corner.

    The ones that got away

    This would have fit me but it was way over what I wanted to pay (it went for $177.50). I had to sit on my hands to keep from bidding on it anyway--a dress with a matching cape? So kitchy!
