Ruining vintage stuff :(
Do you have an item that you've ruined? Maybe a dress you ripped when you were out dancing? An item that shrunk or disintegrated when you washed it? Something that got a careless cigarette burn in it? Something you stained during that nice dinner? I just got to thinking about this - I soaked a...- KittyT

Oil Cleansing Method
You still need to moisturize afterward. You can use a little jojoba oil to moisturize your skin after doing OCM. -
What Was Your First Great Vintage Find?
I've owned vintage things as long as I can remember. My parents always dragged me to antique shows (which I hated back then), but I always ended up coming home with maybe a cute piece of jewelry, an old Nancy Drew book for my collection, or one of those little dolls of the world dolls...- KittyT

It is a program that submits your bid for you at the last minute. You put in your max bid and it submits it for you seconds before the auction end. You don't have to worry about clicking refresh a million times, continuing to enter higher and higher bids, or even being in front of your computer...- KittyT

This pair of Remix wedges only went for $13.25 - alas, they were in a size just slightly too large for me :(- KittyT

Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?
Lye soap is GREAT! I used to use it to clean the dirty, pomade-caked collars of my ex's undershirts and it's incredible, though a bit labor intensive. It definitely requires scrubbing. You can buy it at (surprise, surprise!!) the Vermont Country Store. There are gentle lye soaps that ladies...- KittyT

How do you do it?
I have managed to build a decently-sized vintage wardrobe in about 3 years thanks to Ebay and to local vintage and thrift stores. I realize that I'm lucky in that Boston has some of the best vintage stores in the US. The Lounge has also helped me pick up extra items and it helps to have a friend...- KittyT

Ebay seller asking for more $ after I paid
I'd make her eat it. It's part of her responsibility as a seller to correctly calculate and verify her shipping costs. I can't tell you how many times I lost money on shipping for items I sold. Never, ever have I considered asking for more money, as I always accepted that fact that it was MY...- KittyT

I did! They have a ton of hostess aprons right now. It was a whopping $6. Post a pic of you from the wedding this weekend! That dress and belt were super cute. Of course, you'll have to post a close up of those amazing rhinestone jelly shoes. Good lord are they ridiculous and amazing. I just...- KittyT
