    Pictures of Ladies with Hair Adornments

    I make all of my hair clips...it's just so much cheaper than buying them! I just use spare hair clips (sometimes even pincurl clips), a gluegun and a decoration from my local hobby store. My favorite decorations are meant for flower arrangements and such -- small fruits, and birds. Right now...

    What's on your keychain?

    Ahh, I need to declutter my keys. I use a carabeener (sp?!) to keep everything together. It's nifty for clipping onto my purse handles, belt loops, etc. when I don't have an extra hand or room in my bag. The ignition on my car was really screwed up a while back, but the locksmith at the car...

    Multicultural Musica

    I love 1950's-1960's Indian rock 'n roll. I'm obsessed with classic Bollywood sequences from movies like Gumnaam: http://youtube.com/watch?v=KoqWOOtlIbM :D

    I lost a friend today

    Oh, I am so sorry. Horses are absolutely amazing animals, and the connections you forge with them are forever. My condolences.

    Old fashioned guys

    Perhaps...but not completely, in my opinion. I was raised without any strong, positive male figures in my life to speak of, but I certainly appreciate the rare gentlemen I encounter. I believe that women who treat themselves and others with respect and kindness attract people of that nature.

    The Vintage Fur Thread

    Eh...I think a lot of the facts presented in that Fur is Dead site are pretty accurate; however, I've always been very skeptical about PETA's stuff. Please note that this is coming from a girl who has been a strict vegetarian for a decade, a vegan for part of that time, and a volunteer for...

    Apartment necessities

    I love Mrs. Meyers' products! Pretty high-end, but very good stuff. I wanted to get their lavender all-purpose cleaner, but ended up getting Method's. I'm currently raving over Method's wood polishing spray. I'm sure it's meant for furniture, but I've been using the entire bottle on my...

    Changing one's look.

    Okay, so this is a little embarrassing. :o Before (age 14-ish): I'm the one on the right, of course. The girl on the left is wearing my clothes, wig included. I still wear that coat. After!

    Apartment necessities

    Good to know...I've been smelling it on my clothes all day! I really try to avoid chemical-y fresheners like Glade and Febreze. I also can't stand the smell of Febreze, though I haven't tried it since it originally came out. I recall it smelling very Portapotty-like. :( The baking soda...

    Changing one's look.

    I started wearing the occasional vintage ensemble in early middle school, but my look didn't turn primarily vintage until my junior year of high school. Before that, I did everything. My hair has been long, short, completely shaved and every color of the rainbow. When I was a freshman in...

    vintage-inspired bed sheets

    UPDATE: Target prevails once again! I checked their website and didn't find anything I liked, but I stopped by their store, and oh my goodness...it was a bonanza of vintage-inspired prints. Target's "MODERN HOME" sub-brand had many sets that I liked. The bed sets are very reasonably...

    Apartment necessities

    Ooh, thank you all for the helpful responses! I got up early this morning to sign my papers, pick up my keys (!!) and begin the moving-in process. I mopped the hardwood floor, but it is very grimey and lacking in sheen. I picked up some Method wood cleaning supplies from Target today. I...

    Best doggie names ever

    When we first adopted my two dogs as puppies, their names were Sunrise and Sunset. We decided to change their names because they were so similar and might have made training difficult. We briefly considered calling them Rise and Set, but that had it's problems, too... "Sit, Rise!" "Come, Set!"

    Nutrition and exercise!

    Oof, I've been getting lazy with my normal swing-dancing schedule. I was just way too drained to go on tuesday! However...I'm getting back into the swing of Karate again, and boy, is it kicking my butt! I'm still sore from thursday's class, which was three hours long with no breaks. We...

    Apartment necessities

    This week, I will begin moving my belongings into my new 1930's downtown apartment. This will be my first time living alone, and I've been very occupied shopping for kitchen, bathroom and dining room supplies. I just purchased a beautiful vintage formica table from my favorite antique mall...
