Here's another Dorset compact, similar in style to the one Irish Rin posted at the top of this page. It doesn't close properly, though, and I'm not sure what i can do to fix it. It's never been used. Here's a confetti lucite one I found this weekend on sale at a local antiques market... -
Advice Concerning Hair Correction and Change
I actually think the side-swept bangs look more flattering on your facial shape. I say give them a couple weeks to grow out. Bangs always seem to grow fast! -

OFFER: Vintage Records for crafting, etc
And clocks :-) Do you have an idea of shipping cost? There's a place here I can get damaged records for $1 each, but the selection isn't usually so great. I specify the types of music only because there are certain things that sell and certain things that won't. An old Sam Cooke record...- KittyT

Low Income and Staying Healthy?
Well keep in mind that there was no fast food back then and on average, everyone ate healthier because that's what was available. It's not hard to do these days either - fast food and foods processed with hydrogenated oils and high fructose corn syrup may be cheaper, but you can also buy healthy... -
Can you help me date this item??

How many do you have? I'd be happy to take some off your hands. Prefer old rock and roll records but will take swing/big band as well.- KittyT

Doesn't really matter what you use on your hair - it will not stand up to a sweaty skate helmet. -
Matchy-matchy?
Subtle matching, say for a cocktail party, is fine. Having a fella match his tie or pocket square to your dress color, for example, is a nice touch. Matching your entire outfits? WAY over the line.- KittyT

Vintage Manicures
I would suggest manicuring/pedicuring them yourself and then just having them painted at the salon. Most salons don't charge much at all for a simple polish, often less than $10. -
Girdles, Corsets, and Underpinnings
My current favorites are the nylon undies, especially the so-sexy sheer ones! They aren't always the healthiest thing to wear, but they feel wonderful and luxurious, and are quite lovely. Some can be a bit pricey, but they are worth it! I love the ones from Secrets in Lace - and while some of...- KittyT

Vintage Manicures
found great new red nail polish! I am always on the hunt for a fantastic blue-red polish that is very vibrant and doesn't look brown in certain lighting. OPI "all the berry best" is my favorite, but it's a discontinued line :-( Check out the China Glaze line from Sally Beauty. The color...
