    Steampunk, Dieselpunk, etc.

    Ahh, I'm so happy about this thread! I was considering starting a conversation about steampunk, but I wasn't sure how many people are familiar with it. Brilliant! I'm mad about steampunk, especially the fashion movement behind it...but I don't have any accoutrements that fall into the...

    Credo of the new Vintage Lady

    Ooh, I completely agree with this! It's amazing how much eye contact and even a tiny smile will open people up to you. These points are so inspiring! I don't really have any more to add that haven't yet been said, but I'm currently making my own inventory of what I need to do more of, what...

    the rockabilly scene

    Bars and venues where rockabilly bands play (if there are rockabilly bands in your area, which is likely). Ask around, Google, and look up what bands are either local or coming to your town. A bar in Albuquerque has rockabilly night every Thursday. Car shows (greasers). Um...bowling...

    What is your expertise?

    Hmm... I have yet to meet anyone who can speak in a Pee-wee Herman voice as well as I. I'd also fancy myself an expert at pointing out carcinogenic chemicals in cosmetics. Give me anything out of your medicine cabinet, and I'll scare the pants off ya. Finally, I'm quite adept at...

    Strange Superstitions and The Superstitious Among Us

    Sometimes my car won't go into "park." My sister experienced the same problem, and we've had the car checked out, but whatever they did to fix it did not solve the problem. I have been late for work, exams, etc. due to sitting in my car wiggling the gear to make it park. I've tried slowly...

    The Art of Shaving

    I've been using a regular Venus razor for a few years now. I don't change the blade as often as they say to (who HAS that kind of money?!), but I don't notice a big difference. I loved how Skintimate shave gel works, but I recently stopped using their products because they're tested on...

    From blah to "oh my gosh... look at him/her!"

    Haha, that "progression" is pretty true. I wish the skinheads here were like that...ours are more like, shave your head and drink and fight and listen to Screwdriver (WP skinheads or not). I think the proper term for them is "boneheads." My personal story is that I've sort of always marched...

    Music videos displaying vintage fashion

    "The Killing Jar" by Siouxsie and the Banshees I'm sure there are many other videos that display her style better, but she always had the 20's thing going with her makeup. She's amazing! "Beautiful Girls" by Sean Kingston Not my kind of music, but it's a good mainstream example. I...
