In My Boudoir, With Nought But A Negligee To Cover My Modesty

You can't beat good vintage lingerie. Beautiful lace work, delicate embelishments, liquid silk, solid boning. I love the feminine charm and the extreme restrictions all together. Women of yesteryear did have amazing bodies anyway but the way this underwear made them look so pneumatic and hourglass shaped is perfection. What man could say no to a lady in these amazing creations?

Bangs

Finger curls, Big Bangs, Quiffs, Victory Rolls, Roller Waves. Aren't the oldest hairstyles always the best? I love 30's, 40's & 50's hairstyles. So feminine and perfect, plus a big hairdo makes for looking slimmer (good trick!) Lots of hairspray, mousse & setting is requires but it takes us girls back to the time when staying to wash yr hair meant a good few hours work. How can anybody resist the pin-up look anyway. Vargas, yr work wasn't in vain my friend x

Snoodgate

Can somebody please settle this for me? Me and my blogging buddy Saint Wire have been at loggerheads trying to decide which is the original snood. I am convinced it the on directly below. Crocheted, sometimes with beading, sometimes with glittery yarn but always good for a bad hair day. I reckon these babies have been around for ages and were at the height of their popularity during the 40's. They look totally amazing with finger curls and a couple of bobby pins. I have a navy blue version with gold yarn running through.....


......but my unsinkable friend thinks that this ugly version below is the original and best. I hate it. It looks like you've got a jumper stuck round yr head and will only make you look like a hobo if you cover up a bad hair day. Hmmmm, you decide.
