I can't really speak for every Pinup fan out there, and this might the sort of issue where if you ask 5 women what a Pinup Lifestyle blog should have you'd probably get 5 different answers :)

I do know that mom and motherhood blogs are really big right now, so one done from a Pinup lifestyle angle could definitely be huge I think :) I'd say the best thing that you could include content wise is maybe an explanation about why and how you first got into the pinup lifestyle (was it friends, was it something you read about etc...), what it has to offer women in general and what it's appeals are (a glamourous look with a caring and respectful community of like-minded women), why you've stuck with the style and how best to keep up with the style in a hectic world. Tips like how to do simple but good looking pinup hair and makeup could go really be popular, and maybe ideas for reasonably priced pinup clothes that with basic mix-and-matching and dressing up with accessories can give you a dozen or more different pinup outfit combinations.

I've had a few blog posts here on PUG Style since the summer but nothing quite in the league of what you have in mind I think. Please let us know how this is coming along and I'd love to follow your blog once you have it up and running. Best of luck! ;)

Thank you! That is right along the lines of what I was thinking. I think I have some incite to offer, because I am a stay at home mom and a full time student so I do everything (including my style) on a limited budget, but financially and time wise. I think I'll finally go for it, now that I'm not working full time too, I have a little bit of time to do it

I definitely think you should go for it, sounds like what you have to offer would be really helpful for all the members, lol. :)

I 2nd this! I do not have children (yet!), but I'm in my 30s and would absolutely read a blog on how to live frugally as a pinup mom. :)

I would definitely want to read another blog like that!! While there are already lots out there, the more the better because everyone is different!
