    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    Modcloth has some absolutely gorgeous shoes (and boots). Most of them are beyond my budget, or sold out, which may be just as well....

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    "Call the Midwife". Pouring another teacup of wine and preparing for "Upstairs Downstairs".

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Just finished "The Cat's Meow", which I had seen before, but not from the beginning. It's a little slow and disjointed, but certainly a compelling story, and what aficionado of the 20s wouldn't enjoy the lush sets and constant background music?

    The best face powder in the world!

    You can still find the old cardboard Coty boxes on ebay, including some in off-the-shelf unopened condition.

    Can you help me find pretty, classic-fitting "Sweater Girl" sweaters?

    I just got home from the mall, which is far from my favorite place, but not too bad on a weekday morning. Managed to get a pair of nice sweaters from the Liz Clairborne dept. at Penney's, but in general, the things I saw were disappointing. The lame, all-over-the-place-but-suspiciously-80s...

    Can you help me find pretty, classic-fitting "Sweater Girl" sweaters?

    J Crew and Banana Republic always have some classically stye led apparel. Also JC Penney offers nice sweaters, particularly by Worthington and Liz Claiborne. (And now I'm in the mood to shop....)

    Finishing / Charm School.

    I think I only saw the British one, and just for a few episodes, as I also can't bear 'reality' shows. I mean, if they were truly real, they could be interesting; it's all the over the top added drama, that you just know has been taped and retaped for maximum effect, that puts me off. In fact...

    Finishing / Charm School.

    Done in Australia? But it's a British program, right? We watched it for a while; those girls were right slappers, weren't they? On the one hand, the whole idea of Miss So-and-So's finishing school to learn flower arranging and how to receive posh eligible bachelors at a dinner party seems so...

    Show us your home decor!

    Kitchen, with metal cupboards in dire need of repainting. Also, that electric range was an early 60s model, that has since been replaced with a smaller hand-me-down gas stove. Dresser and stuff. Before and after of my studio space (one of them, anyway).

    Show us your home decor!

    A cheap, veneered dresser I got for next to nothing. And one of my typewriters. British cupboard I got my husband for his birthday a few years ago.

    Round 3 Beauty Box Official Thread

    Did they expound on the particulars of "flat rate purposes"? 'Cos I'd love to know.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    ^^^ Netflix instant streaming rarely has the movie I'm looking for, but it's good for discovering random bizarrities. ;)

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    "The Baby", 1973. Unusual, bizarre, twisty. Great, if you like that sort of thing.

    I was happy to do my part. ;)

    Round 3 Beauty Box Official Thread

    I added two of the Flaunt palettes, one's larger, with eyes, lips, blush, and powder, plus fold out make up cards with tips for different looks. I think ThemThereEyes chose the smaller one, which may only have eye shadows. There's also a mirror attached to the flip-up lid. I found several...

    Round 3 Beauty Box Official Thread

    The box is on its way to Texas, should arrive in a day or two. The counter clerk hefted it onto the scales and before even looking at the weight said, "you're getting your money's worth out of this box." To which I replied, "you said it, sister."

    Show us what you've made!

    Super duper bathing costume, Flicka! And Grant Fan, I adore that dress (and the print, which reminds me of a charming vintage wall paper); it's one of my favorite styles, as it's so flattering and easy to wear. Gosh, this thread makes me wish a. my sewing machine worked, and b. that I could...

    I'm interested in these if you still have them on offer.

    Round 3 Beauty Box Official Thread

    My selections: [/IMG] Other 'easy' curling devices haven't worked for me, but after seeing talk of the spoolies on here, I was happy to find a bag of them to try. (Guess I'll put off a haircut for a little while.) Several foundations that I've been wanting to experiment with, eye...
