Greetings and salutations everyone,

As I prepare to buy my 1st piece of pinup clothing I would like to hear from some veterans about the do's and don'ts for the 1st time buyer. I am not sure what piece I want to my 1st piece and would love to hear some recommendations.

Here's my 2 cents. If you are going to a place that sells PUG, make sure to wear the right undergarments. Meaning your best bra, any shape wear have etc.  If you are going to be purchasing  online, figure out what you want to draw attention to and look at clothing that will do that. Personally, my problem area is my mid-section but my bust is awesome! So for me, so the Monica dress would make me very uncomfortable. (Click on the link to see the dress) But I have purchased the Birdie in the red flower because it's a fit and flare type. It shows my bust off in a way I like and flares out thru my midsection. I also wear a petticoat with it for even more of a flare.  I hope that helps you some. :) 

I'd recommend trying something off the Swap/Sell page first - that way you don't have to spend the $150 for free shipping and you get it for cheaper. Also, sign up for the newsletter - I generally only buy things during sales. CC9562? I think that's the code for free shipping over $150 in the US and 10% off. As far as what to get, keep in mind your lifestyle. I have a tendency to go overboard and get every other pretty dress I see, but I don't really have a whole lot of opportunities to wear them. Staples are a girl's best friend, like the Doris Tops/Skirts (I make the low cut on the Doris work with a lacy cami). A great first dress is the Heidi - soooo flattering. Just be sure to measure yourself accurately and check the size chart of each item before you purchase!

Thanks ladies I will try to keep this information in mind. And Bonnie Lynn Bozell the Heidi dress is absolutely gorgeous I think I might have to consider it.

I've gone makeup free (zit on the chin and all!) except my mascara to showcase how good it is - it makes even the stubbiest little lashes gigantic! It's "They're real" by Benefit. People often ask me…Continue
