    Ladies prefer...

    I thought I'd chime in with the Gentlemen prefer thread as it seems an interesting one to discuss. What is it you ladies prefer in a man? Is it his hat wearing skills or perhaps his ability to dance? What do you look for? I personally am always attracted to a man with facial hair. I have...

    Dita Von Teese

    Me too! I think Helen Mirren's more my role model though :offtopic: In the case of Dita I have no interest really in celebrities. We'll never know what they're really like. We get edited snippets and contructed interpretations of them, which allow us to judge them and most of the time...

    Fish and chips and other balms for the soul

    I don't seem to have a problem finding beef dripping, I buy either the block stuff from the supermarkets, or the butchers sell tubs of the stuff. But I agree it is the best frying fat and perfect for making toad in the hole, one of my favourites :p My trick is I put capers in the batter, it...

    I've been watching Victorian Pharmacy lately and they used to grind up garden worms to put on bruises...didn't work apparently.

    WEIRD stuff from the golden era

    In England if you're pregnant you get free dental care because of the whole loose teeth thing. I've not known any pregnant women to have taken prenatal vitamins. I hope we're not all malnourished in England.

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    This is off topic, but on the news article on the Chap Olympiad, the woman news reporter at the end said something like "But these events are for men only so as a lady I'm going to sit here and drink." Thanks for making the games look sexist to the whole nation.

    Thanks for the lovely comments! A barrel curl is essentially the same as a pin curl, except it stands up from your head. It kinda looks like you have rollers in, but there aren't any involved. I can't think of any other way to explain it. Hope that helps a bit.

    *Blush* thanks, I do have a ton of make up on though. Jasmine I did a little diagram thingy on paint so I can explain it better. After setting it I brushed it out, but not overly so it retained a bit more curl. I hope the diagram is vaguely useful.

    I finally managed to buy a lead for my camera so I can upload photos now yay! Anyway here's a picture of my hair. I've been trying to emulate Rita Hayworth hair a lot and I think this is the closest I've got. It involved a mixture of pin curls, barrel curls and rollers. Rita's hair seems...

    Dating for Fedora Loungers?

    Having read through this thread again today, I feel so incredibly lucky. I actually met my current long-term boyfriend at a strip club where I was working as a stripper and he'd come in with his twin brother. It was their birthday and that's what his twin wanted to do. We began talking about...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I understand where you're coming from and I was just theorizing really because I fail to understand why anyone would be nasty to anyone for the sake of it, but that's just me being naive probably. I didn't mean to offend anyone by passing over responsibility to the recipient. It's not their...

    Dating for Fedora Loungers?

    I've only ever been out with one vintage lover, my current boyfriend, and we sort of developed into it together. He too did re-enactment and had long hair (yum), and I was already beginning to obsess over vintage lifetsyles when we first got together. We've always had the interest individually...

    Marilyn's Makeup in "How to Marry A Millionaire"

    Ooo I love that lipstick colour!

    Ladies, what scents do you like on your men?

    I think it might, my dads 58 and he wears it so their grandads are probably young/old enough to wear it. They're trying to bring Old Spice back into fashion though with the flashy adverts so maybe it will work. Always worth a try :)
