    I don't like the Bette lips at all! They're so... shapeless... like Julia Roberts'.

    The Cleaning Clothes (vintage or other) Thread

    Oxyclean should be fine! I have one of those 50s bags with all the plastic beads glued to the outside and I soaked that in a mild bleach solution. It worked wonders. So Oxyclean overnight should be fine!

    Guns and shooting advice?

    I'm waiting to get my LTC in the mail!!! I took the NRA class through SAS a few weeks back, got everything I needed, got fingerprinted at police headquarters, went to the Boston Police Department firing range for my test.... if that test isn't enough to deter most folks from pursuing their...

    How to starch a petticoat ??

    One of the things most gals love about vintage petticoats is how soft and frothy they are. You might actually want to avoid starching it.

    Lace it up - The true Corset thread

    You will likely not find a ready-made overbust corset for your measurements. Custom is going to be your way to go.

    Um yeah....$20 for 2 catalin handled spoons? Riiiight. For that price those suckers better be able to wash themselves.

    The ones that got away

    That blouse is incredible! It reminds me of a few items in an old Vogue catalog in my mom's sewing room.

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    Oh hey now! That's not how I meant it at all and you know it! :-) They're just not what's right for me. I think they're great, though not horribly comfortable (the leather is too stiff, for one) and too tall for all day wear. I actually emailed Remix recently to ask if they've ever considered...

    The ones that got away

    this dress is just like THE dress that has its own thread here, only the wrap is in reverse! It's quite simple really... no pesky zippers! I love wrap around dresses - they always fit no matter how my weight fluctuates. They're just so forgiving!

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    Cherry Lips' are really lovely, but they're also a bit too plain for what I'm looking for. Unfortunately, I've also never found a cobbler that I would trust to do work of quality comparable to the price they'd charge me for custom shoes! I actually really love the architectural quality of the...

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    These aren't really vintagey per se, but mostly I'm looking for an opinion. My favorite pair of black heels have been dying a slow and painful death over the past few years, frequently revived by multiple trips to the cobbler. I've decided it might be worth it to shell out some dough for a...

    Short hair help, yet again

    Kami, I like hot rollers and I do use hot sticks, but they generally will not give me a curl that stays in more than a few hours, even with setting lotion. My hair has just never held curl well, unless I sleep in my rollers or leave them in for 6-8 hours, and if I do wet sets, my hair will never...

    Marie Galante Makeup Trunk

    Listings online say that "This beautiful, hand-made trunk is based on original designs from the late 19th century". They also say that it costs just under $3k.

    Short hair help, yet again

    Thanks for the input ladies. Right now, it's just past my shoulders and I really want inches taken off, in part because I have damaged hair that used to be bleached that I'm trying to clear off. I know I can take inches off and still be able to pull it up, but there's also that difference...

    Short hair help, yet again

    Looks great! I'd really love to do something new like this, but am worried about a few things... If I take length off my hair and still have layers, I can't just easily pull it up in a ponytail or a twist or a braid if I don't have time to do anything with it. Taking the time to set...
