Hallo!
I go by Josephine on the net, and came here by way of The Long Hair Community and Vintage_Hair over on Live Journal. I had been lurking awhile, and finally decided to join.
In the 20th century (I also go to Renaissance Festivals) I like post flapper (I'm too curvy to wear the shifts they wore in the 20's) to the early 1950's, concentrating on the 1930's and 40's. I'm just starting in the vintage collecting, I have some of my great grandmother's and grandmother's things. Though now that I am getting active in the collecting I hope to put the word out to my other relatives and reap the benefits of them cleaning out their closets.
I do sew, and hate to spend money, so I think that reproductions are the way to go for me. I'd rather have 5 reproduction dresses (but not faddish reproductions, if that makes sense!) than one vintage dress. Thought it would be nice to have a few vintage ones... And hats! I love hats.
I have waist length hair that is proving to be a bit troublesome in getting into Victory rolls and the like, but I shall persevere! If only to wear cool hats.
Erm, I guess that's it!
