Hello Princess Margot and welcome! Um, Sunny can't send you a PM yet either. You need to have 15 posts under your belt before you can send or receive them.
So, happy posting!! ;)

Of course it will be months before I wear either but off season shopping has always served me well.

This just gobbles me up and swallows me whole. I am wondering if its worth tailoring. Its lined, has lovely pockets and belt loops....

I *love* vintage purchases!

Hubby surprised me with this vintage beauty for Chrsitmas (I know, very early). I wish the camera could capture the light bouncing off of it. It's so pretty.

And I just bought this lovely (eBay) jacket after spending an hour lugging boxes in the cold with nothing suitable to match my outfit. It was only $20!

Sorry :eek:fftopic:

You're very welcome.
Don't worry. A lot of gals jump right in. It isn't a problem. If you do want to introduce yourself though, there is one thread for it here in the Powder Room, (just for ladies) and another over in the Observation Bar. When you lurk for a while you do get to feel like you know people. I know I did. :D

And I'd guess Sunny will get your request, but it's going to be tricky for her to contact you without PMs. If you can do 2 posts a day, you'll be set in about a week. And again, welcome.:)

Build your own Wardrobe ©1943

This booklet is great! It focuses on the war time fashion conscious gal, and thunders the mantra of "If you dont have the money for a new pattern, alter one you already have!" It gives great tips on how to get more looks from one pattern and encourages alteration and experimentation! Its so cool! :)

I was totally watching that brochure! I hadn't seen it before.

I got this Vogue from 1936 today, with an article on the Queen Mary by Cecil Beaton. :D

And this little hat yesterday that will perfectly match a navy blue 40s dress I have with "V" for victory rhinestones attached at the collar. Maybe if it's warm enough I can wear them in remembrance of Pearl Harbor next month. (Thanks to Sunny for sending the hat to me!)

I have money leftover from the sekrit vacation, and darn it, I want some new clothes! But I hate spending money. It's like my Precious... what if I need it for something important and it's gone because I bought some stupid other thing I don't really need thats' just cluttering up the house?

Heck with it, I'm gonna buy something!

I just scored this beauty yesterday at Salvation Army for $6.99. I could not believe it still had the original box with it. I will also have this in the help me date this item thread.
