Great coat hotrod_elf! Love the color especially.
I'm copying these pajamas
and I found this fabric, which I think is a pretty good match
Hopefully, I should get the fabric next week.
I've been a regular assembly line over here lately with 4 dresses nearly done. I'll...
This reminded me of when I was working in a bakery when I was 16. I had a mother/daughter duo who spent litereally hours giving me the most elaborate wedding cake order and I was so glad to see them leave--until I realized I didn't get several pertinent pieces of information from them. I ended...
Guh! Heartbreak! Next time email me and I'll send you the $ so I can see them vicariously. ;) I'm SO in love with that band--the lead singer's voice is hypnotic for me.
I discovered Franz Ferdinand just before they broke in the US and found out they'd been at a very small venue in Boston...
Okay, both of these outfits recently sold on ebay. There is no way in the world I would ever fit into either of them which eases the pain slightly but, oh boy do they give me the "wants". Anybody here get either of them? I'd like to know they found good homes.
First up, a silk Lilli Ann...
Those prices! Aren't they just crazy!
The only piece that would have actually fit me was the playsuit, the rest were just things I liked that I had bookmarked so it isn't AS painful. Except for that honeybee dress--I love that thing!
I'm going to post some bee-you-tiful stuff in the...
There have been some interesting things on the 'bay lately; some interesting prices too. What think you, ladies?
Overalls $172
Large size playsuit; I considered bidding on this when it was still in the double digits but it went for $255
Silky rayon with novelty...
Lots of stores sell reproduction Fiestaware; I've had good luck with the sales at Macys (4 piece placesetting is now on sale for 24.99). They have coordinating table linens there too.

I heard Bette Midler say that when she started in show business she'd send a 20's head shot of Barbara LaMarr for auditions and shows instead of her own picture. I can see her doing something like that.
Yeah, I ran the specs for the MiniDigi by some knowlegable friends and they weren't overly impressed. An instance of style over function I fear.
I still want one though!
1937 McMurdo Silver Masterpiece VI with Clifton cabinet - In beautiful shape, this radio is apparently quite rare too. I love the chrome and the deco styling.
That, my friend, is a thing of beauty! Tsk, the goregeous things always seem to be the rarest too.
So sorry to hear you're in need of cheering BegintheBeguine; take care of yourself.
One of my great regrets is that I never saw Sarah Vaughn live--she died so relatively young, I thought I'd have time. I taped a tribute program after her death--a scratchy broadcast from some tiny radio...
There are a couple of subway singers in Boston I love--when they're good they can be very good, and when they're bad, well...
Still no Becoming Jane? Tsk, tsk. ;) If the Lounge had a Secret Santa I'd know what to get you, wouldn't I?
