    Someday I'll copy that suit (dress, skirt, blouse)...

    Isn't it pretty? I always picture it with a dark button on the white portion and on the bag though.

    If I had to pick one girl from the golden era

    Good choice! Judy's so beautiful in her early 1940's movies--especially the "But Not For Me" number in Girl Crazy and The Clock.

    Show Us Your Oldest Books

    I love this thread--old books are so beautiful. The oldest book I have is a small pocket bible carried by one of my ancestors in the Civil War and kept with him during his imprisonment at Andersonville. After the war he gave the book to his sister, who gave it to her sister all of which is...

    Great book Zaika, is this one illustrated by Boris Zvorykin by any chance?

    overalls in the 1940s and 50s?

    These are some of the cutest I've ever seen--look at that tie in the back!

    Shoe Addiction...or Something Else......

    I collect or have collected so many things--currently novelty print 1940's dresses are rather an obsession. I have a great silk scarf from the 1920's -- I'll try to post a picture. Other things I have collected/do collect include; Old movie magazines, postcards, music sheets, chintz china...

    That's adorable--what's the fabric like? Soft or scratchy?

    Someday I'll copy that suit (dress, skirt, blouse)...

    I'm pretty sure that leopard print coat has a hood too--my version would anyhow! A few more images. Looking through my "to be copied" folder I've realized I should change my moniker from "I'm Old Fashioned" to "I Like Bows". So many images of dresses with bows I've got...

    PBS "The War" Series

    I'm watching part 2 right now (missed part 1; will watch it later tonight). The interviews are really strong (that bomber pilot particularly). Very strange (but great) to see so much color footage from this era. Also, on a purely superficial note, I keep ogling all those gorgeous flight...

    Do you need cheering up..? (then watch this medley of Sinatra & Dino!)

    Love it! I'm climbing on my soapbox here for a moment, but who do we have like this anymore? Talent just seeps out of their pores, they're at the top of their game and most of all the joy they express--you can tell they're just having the best time. So few modern performers evidence that...

    2DaysinParis

    The visual with the Bastille Day balloons cracked me up--the boyfriend's disappointment that he wasn't the first. Several good one-liners too like "are these for children?!". It is a really hard film to try and explain isn't it? Completely different genre but I felt that way with Tristam...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I saw this about a month ago and forgot to post about it. This was one of those movies my friends wanted to see more than I did but I ended up really, really loving it. Nice to see Emma playing against type and Maggie Gyllenhaal is always good. Will Ferrell was a pleasant surprise too, wasn't...

    Great pictures, but I'm especially in love with your hat Brooksie!

    Vintage Knitting!

    Could you please post some of the books and video clips that were helpful when you taught yourself to knit?

    Vintage Knitting!

    I love them all but these are especially great. That first picture looks so vintage at first glance I thought it was modern posing as vintage. I don't knit but I've always wanted to learn. I inherited a huge amount of knitting equpiment from a friend (needles of every size, gauges, etc.)...

    That is cute with a capital C! Reminds me of those 1950's patterns except this is better--you don' t have to make it! Please post pictures of you in it when it arrives.

    Seconded--amazing outfit and great pictures!

    Do you have a crush?

    I've seen him speak--he's brilliant of course (and very geeky cute). I've seen Howard Zinn many times in Cambridge as well.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    One of my all time favorites too, practically every scene is a classic. She's a really minor character but I love Roger's secretary; "Here's a little something for your sweet tooth baby, and all your other sweet parts too" he dictates and she gives him this great look. I saw 2 Days in Paris...
