    Guns and shooting advice?

    Thanks for the tip, Diamondback. I'm definitely going to look into classes, but need to wait to have the money first. One good option I do have is through SAS - our state coordinator is a certified instructor and will offer class discounts to her SAS gals. haaaahaha :-) i do imagine that the...

    Guns and shooting advice?

    Thanks, Skeet! Heading North is definitely not an issue. I drive to Haverhill pretty often to go rollerskating. It's really not that far :-) I've been to the range up in Manchester, NH and while I do like it, they don't have may rental guns available that are suitable for me. I've...

    Bettie Page Dress Retro Repro.

    I love it and I think it would fit me nicely, but there's no money in the budget for clothes at the moment :-(

    The Old Fashioned

    Note: The correct term is Old Fashioned. I love them, but will only order them from about 2 bartenders in town, and only when it's not busy. Want to really piss off a bartender? Order one of these on a busy night. In my mind, there's no tried and true recipe, and just like the martini...

    Favorite Lips and Nails shades for that Vintage look

    Sure, it's a lot of information, and chances are you won't read through it all. It does make it easier for everyone (including our bartenders!) if it's consolidated in one place though!

    Favorite Lips and Nails shades for that Vintage look

    You should take a look back through the Beauty forum. There are separate, HUGE threads for nail and lipstick colours.

    Vintage Blouses - 40s & Edwardian

    Will you accept offers? Love the 40s blouse but $36 is too steep.

    Making heels more comfortable

    Everyone has one foot that is bigger than the other. My right foot is bigger, so I'll always try on the right shoe first :-)

    Oh those darn bangs!

    The foam ones suck. There are better ones that a) match your hair better (if you can find someplace that carries different colors) b) grip your hair better and c) are easier to pin into. Used to use this type all the time as a kid for buns for ballet. They are made of nylon mesh, not foam, and...

    EBAY, Dresses, shirts and more

    It's Viva Las Vegas, a big rockabilly weekender that happens in Vegas every spring. Also note that it's the best time for vintage sellers on Ebay (and the worst time for buyers as far as prices are concerned), because everyone's looking to fill in holes in their wardrobes or pick up new stuff...

    Making heels more comfortable

    A lot of what gals have said here is right on - making sure you have shoes that fit in the first place, just not wearing styles or types of shoes that give you lots of problems, wearing stockings, using gel inserts/heel grips/etc.... Something else to consider though... at the end of the day...

    Ummm... hemming pants is ridiculously easy, and cheap if you can't do it yourself.

    Vintage Streetstyle Thread

    THAT'S what it is! I couldn't place my finger on it. Most of them look like the indie kids I see walking around that place together everything in such a way that it looks like the worst of the worst of the 80s.
