I'm the same way!
I've seen a doctor, a nutritionist, homeopath...you name it. I don't have a thyroid problem or anything, and my diet is fine (healthier than average, even). I'm just a healthy, skinny girl! None of my immediate family members ever had my metabolism, but I think a few...
I was feeling very Vivienne Westwood today at work. I wore this with my Edwardian jacket, of course.
Hat -- vintage, antique co-op.
Top -- a gift, from a German lingerie shop.
Bustle -- Andrea Odicini, Buffalo Exchange (!!!).
Capris -- belonged to my mother.
Shoes -- Kung Fu shop...
Yeah, I have a pretty difficult time figuring out what to do with my hair under hats. I actually managed to get my hair into a little bun that day, but I didn't notice that little hair tendril hanging out until later.
For me, it's not a matter of my ability to create interesting styles...
I look so silly in trousers! I recently sold one of my 40's pairs, but I kept a grey pair. They fit my butt, but my legs are too skinny to look cute in any widelegged pants, sadly.
Here's a silly photo of me in one of my favorite hats. I was obviously trying to fix a bad hair day, hehe!
And here's a recent one of my vintage Parisian hat!
I'm probably going to wear one of my cute, flowery ones to work today, so I'll try to snap a shot before I take off. :)
Me too! They may not be "period correct"...but my feet thank me for it, especially since I've been working out five days a week lately (school stress calls for it).
Eh, I've given up on finding vintage-friendly walking shoes. Sure, there are plenty of shoes that are comfortable for, say, walking to classes or work. But when you're walking for that long, you've got to choose the shoes with the best support.
Wow, I never really thought about how the average height difference back then influenced the modeling industry. Those are all heights with HEELS. That's so interesting!
Do you mind if I share these scans? I'll link back to the forum.
Sadly, my Pilates days are over for the time being. The class was only 8 weeks long, since it was a university credit. There's a Pilates studio right next to my work place, but there's no way I'm going to be able to fit their class hours into my schedule until school is over.
I did...
I'm not sure who I resemble, if anyone. I get a lot of modern comparisons (usually Maggie Gyllenhaal). I've also been told that I look like an Olsen twin! :eek:
