The Fall and Winter Wardrobe Guide for Pinup, Retro and Vintage Mavens

I've seen a lot of posts on here about doing pinup in the winter, so I've decided to put together a comprehensive guide. I'll be staring, of course, with the undergarments and topping it off with accessories.  I've posted this here first but it will go live on my personal blog Friday.  Enjoy and let me know what you think or what else you'd add into this crazy list.

Bomb Girls - the TV show

Hi girls !

I recently discovered the TV show "Bomb Girls". I am sure some of you know that because it as been on the TV since 2013 BUT I didn't found any post on it so here I go !

It's the story of canadian womans working in a bomb manufactury starting 1941.

We follow them during their housewife life or love stories, everyday life, during their fights for more rights and we see a piece of what was life during the WWII.

I found the actors great, the story follows the…

Every Girl Wants to be a Mermaid

I'm not sure if I should be blaming Disney or Darryl Hannah in Splash, but for as long as I can remember, I wanted to be a mermaid. I would even put pool rings around my ankles to keep them together while swimming, and my mother would always check for gills behind my ears! Now as an adult, I still find myself entranced with mermaids and it has even translated over into my clothes a tiny…

makeup for lindy hopping

  Being a vintage gal is a pretty demanding kind of thing. Curling and styling your hair, the anything-but-natural makeup, hunting out rare vintage styles and sometimes wearing clothes that are 80 years old, not to mention the ordeals of garters, stockings, high heels, corsets, jewelery, hats – there’s a lot involved!

Now imagine, that on top of all that, you weren’t only going to style your hair, do your makeup, and wear uber-feminine vintage style clothing, but you were going to do…

Eyebrows - the picture frame to your face

  I am a self proclaimed Eyebrow Snob, and as told by many an Eyebrow Guru. 



 I took a moment out of my week to make a meme to represent how small and major changes can change a persons face drastically. Rather than giving Photoshop eyebrow make-overs to random girls, I felt it would be more appropriate to do so on many famous faces of OldHollywood. 



 So…
