From the more conventional black, brown, blonde, all shades of reds, platinum etc to the more outrageous blue, bright red, pinks, tulip etc.</span></font></p><p style="margin: 0px; "><font face="Times"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></font></p><p style="margin: 0px; "><font face="Times"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I have been growing my hair now for about a year and have gone from a white blonde pixie crop to a jaw length black bob.

She is now remembered for her iconic hairstyle with her short fluffy fringe (bangs). <br />

In the vintage and rockabilly scene many girls rock the Bettie bangs! <br />
If you decide to go for the chop when you go to the hairdressers you need to ask for a short u shape fringe (bangs). <br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<br />
When styling this short fringe I use a curling tong to curl under the ends and then comb through.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Alternatively if you don't want to cut your hair but you'd still like to have this look sometimes you can try a "bumper bang" / faux bang style.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
This is where you take the front your hair and curl it under either with pin curls, rollers or curling tongs. Then back comb underneath and brush it into a forward roll. Now pin into place at the sides tucking the pins in at the sides.<br />
<br />
<br />
Here is a fantastic tutorial for the bumper bang hairstyle by the fabulous Jenn over at A Vintage Vanity!<br />

<br />
Today I filmed my first makeup haul/product review video. I have been buying some new makeup in the last few weeks and I'm really pleased with it all so I thought I would share my thoughts on these items with you all.<br />
<br />
First up is the new makeup range from Mabelline. It's called Fit Me and its a range of foundations, concealer's and powders. I'm very pleased with these, the coverage is lovely. You can build it up if you want to and it leaves my skin feeling light and not greasy. The colour match is also really good.<br />

I bought a new eye brow powder set from Nyx. I normally use Benefit Browzings in dark but I have changed my hair colour to black recently and the colour match between my hair and eyebrows wasn't great so I decided to shop around for a new one and found this. I love it!!! The colours great, it blends beautifully and looks great.<br />

My new eyeshadow palette is Fraulein 38 eyeshadow colour pallet. I must say I'm very pleased with this item too. The price was great. It cost me less than £10.00 and it has about 120 colours in!! Its fab, each little shadow isn't very big but there are so many that you should be able to create so many different looks to keep you going with this item for ages! <br />

Coastal Scents camo quad colour corrector. This is another item I'm really pleas does conceal with this product. The coverage is great and really does cover dark circles and red patches. use the yellow or lilac colour to hide dark circles under the eyes and the green or pale blue to cover red spots or red patches.<br />

This film is from 1935 and was a sequel to the original Frankenstein. Some people think that the sequel was better than the original Frankenstein but I love them both, what's your take on this?<br />
<br />
The Bride of Frankenstein s one of those classic 'Old Hollywood Monster Movies' and you can't really get more vintage than the original 1935 movie staring Boris Karloff, Elsa Lanchester and Colin Clive.<br />
<br />
You can look this movie u here -<br />
<br />
www.imdb.com<br />
<br />
To achieve this look I backcombed my hair leaving out two sections next to the ears. Then I pulled back in a beehive shape and loosely waved the side sections using a curling iron. Next I put talcum powder on the parts of the hair and pinned them up with the rest of hair. My hair s too short for this really so it looks a little bit messy but if your hair is longer then it should work really well. Of course the easy option is to buy a wig.<br />
<br />
here's the list of products I used to achieve this look -<br />
Maxfactor pan stick in fair<br />
StarGazer foundation in white,<br />
StarGazer pressed powder in white<br />
Marks and Spencer eye and cheek bronzing stick in russet<br />
Solait bronzing puff in golden glow<br />
Benefit browzings in dark<br />
Benefit big beautiful eyes eye contour kit<br />
white eye shaddow<br />
Black liquid eye liner<br />
black mascara<br />
false eye lashes<br />
collection 2000 lip definer in damson<br />
Famous by Sue Moxley lipstick in shade 2<br />
<br />
Here are the pictures I used as inspiration -<br />

<br />
I hope you're all having a great Friday and looking forward to a great weekend? <br />
<br />
It's my Birthday at the end of October and when asked by my recently by my lovely husband how I would like to spend the day I told him how I would love to have a day trip to London and visit the Vivien of Holloway shop. I have shopped online with them before bug have never been in store! I can not wait to get in there and try on all the lovely 1940s and 1950s inspired clothing. <br />
What I'm after most is a new dress for my Christmas party with all my friends. There are two dresses I have seen online but can't decide between the two! I will pop pictures below and you can tell me what you think. <br />
<br />
Has anyone been into this shop before? Is it as lovely as I imagine it to be? <br />
<br />
I have bought a pair of 1940s swing jeans on the online shop and they are great. I will link to my Youtube outfit of the day video for these too. <br />
<br />
So let me know which dress you prefer in the comments box and I will come back with a blog post telling you all which dress I went for,<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading,<br />
<br />
Love Doris xxxx<br />

<br />
After the recent unpleasantness in the press of the duchess of Cambridge and those topless photos I thought I would write a short post to show her my support. <br />
<br />
This is just my personal opinion but I really don't think that if she chooses to sunbathe with her top on or off when she's sunbathing on private property is anyone's business. I feel the royal family deserves some privacy and private space of there own as much as anyone. <br />
<br />
So I view of this it got me thinking of other princesses past and thought I would share some of my favourite pictures of the duchess of Cambridge. Princess Diana, princess Margaret, Queen Elizabeth ii when she was still a Princess and Princess Grace of Monaco. <br />
<br />
So that's my little rant over,<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading, <br />

<br />
Today I'm going to be looking at the classic pillbox hat. This style of hat is a classic style of vintage hat and can still be found today in a more modern version of the original. <br />
<br />
The pillbox hat was made famous during the 1960s by jackie Kennedy who liked to the style with classic channel style suits. One of the most famous of her outfits with this style hat is that pink and black channel suit. <br />
<br />
During my pillbox hat research I have found vintage sewing and knitting patterns going back to the 1940s. This style of hat is relatively simple to make at home depending on how fancy you want to get. <br />
Here are a couple of links to pillbox DIY tips - http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/pill-box-hat<br />
http://www.thedapperbun.com/2011/10/diy-style-how-to-make-1963-pan-am.html<br />
<br />
Another type of pillbox hat is that of the air stewardess of the 1960s as seen recently in the popular tv program Pan Am. <br />
<br />
Heres a few examples of pill box hats. <br />
<br />

Today I want to have a look at one of my favourite hairstyles of the 1960s - the Beehive.<br />
<br />
The Beehive first found fame in 1960 when it was first created by Margaret Vinci Heldt<span style="font-size: large;">. </span><span style="font-size: small;">Margaret created the style when asked to create a new really different style. She took inspiration from a black fez style hat with black beads on that looked like bees.</span><br />
<br />
The style was worn by many famous faces of the times, such as girl group The Ronettes, Bridgette Bardot, Audrey Hepburn, Dusty Springfield and many more.<br />
<br />
Since then the style has become world famous and is still popular today with many stars. Amy Winehouse remade the style a popular choice again when she first rose to fame. <br />
<br />
Some other recent satrs to rock a beehive are Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez and Christina Hendricks.<br />

I Love the beehive, it paved the way for all big hairstyles to come. All You need is a ratail comb, some hairspray and bobby pins to get this look. I have a short bob and can still mannage a small beehive. Why not give this iconic style a go, I'd love to know how you get on!<br />

Thanks for reading.<br />

<br />
Today I'm going to share some photos of vintage swimwear ranging from the 1920s through to the early 1960s. <br />
I'm off on my summer holiday next week. We're going to southern Spain so I thought I'd get in the mood by sharing some vintage summer fun! <br />
<br />
Are you off on your travels this summer? Let me know what your up to. <br />
<br />
I love the surfer girl photos. When I'm in warmer climes it's the surf style I love with its laid back styles. I love tropical prints and a flower in my hair. <br />
<br />
So I'll be back with more vintage fun after my summer jaunt in sunny Spain!<br />
<br />
Much love and thanks for reading. <br />
<br />
Doris xxxxx<br />

<br />
Today I am going to share with you my new favourite vintage and Retro style dress maker. She is the lovely Sally SweetLove. I came across her work through a friend on Facebook and went over to her page to take a look at what she does. Well what I found were beautiful handmade vintage style clothes made from 40s and 50s patterns. I was so taken with her work that I asked her to make me a dress for a wedding that I had coming up. All I can say is the dress is so perfect! It's exactly what I wanted, a one of a kind and it was cheaper than many of the big name new vintage retailers. <br />
<br />
I'm going to attach links to her test shop and Facebook page so that you can go and see her lovely work for yourselves. I asked the lovely Sally if she would mind me writing a blog post about her work but she was so happy about it that she wrote me a little piece about her life for me to share with you. <br />
<br />
So here it is -<br />
<br />
I have been sewing since I was at primary school , the first thing I ever made was a red corduroy bib and brace skirt , that I wore until it was bald and far too short . At school my sister and I made all our own clothes, basically knocking off any Goth style we saw on TV or in magazines, I copied a dress David Vanians wife had, and a couple of nifty Siouxsie Sioux numbers as well . At university got into the retro scene and copied whatever I could from old films teaching myself to tailor and making lots of cute 40s suits. I also made ball dresses and bridesmaid dresses for other people, it was the early 90s, with a lot of taffeta and boning lol. I kept going when I started my career as a fashion buyer , making suits for work as there was nothing 40s around . Sadly then my career took over and I only did little projects . I gave up my career two years ago and started swing again. Starting with tea dresses , then Teresa from Peggie Sues saw one of my blouses and persuaded me to make her one, then it's just snowballed from there. Now I have an International business selling to the USA , Australia and Finland to name but a few! I love that the clothes I make are unique, but most of all wearable. I don't think frocks are for special occasion, I think that femininity is a sign of strength and shows that we can really be ourselves and not follow the crowd. I hope my frocks make people happy, I have had some lovely comments back . <br />

Looking back at the fab fashions that HRH Queen Elizabeth ii wore in her youth and especially in the 50s. I'm also looking at some of the late Princess Margaret's clothes too as she was also a style icon. <br />
Now I'm not a historian or royal expert but just a loyal subject wanting to celebrate 60 years of wonderful reign from our monarch! <br />
In her younger days the queen was at the top of the fashion stakes, even today she is always polished and dressed beautifully. <br />
My personal favourite era of hers in the style stakes was the during 1950s as this was the decade that she came to the throne, here's some pictures for you to see what I'm talking about. <br />
And also some pictures of her equally stylish sister, princess Margaret. <br />
<br />
I hope her majesty has a great diamond jubilee and has many more years as our Queen! <br />

Often worn by teenage girls the poodle skirt designed by <a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Juli_Lynne_Charlot&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Juli Lynne Charlot (page does not exist)">Juli Lynne Charlot</a> became a fun fashion item that many could make easily and cheaply at home. Largely made in felt and heavy fabrics with an applique pattern of a coiffured poodle but later the applique designs moved on to flowers, other animals and birds etc. <br />
<br />
Today the poodle skirt is largely associated with retro costumes. But I think it is classic, fun and a quick and easy way to replicate 1950s fashion and glamour. Also they are very easy to make. Once you have made one you can go on to change colours and applique patterns to go with any outfit or occasion.<br />
<br />
I have made my own poodle skirt and plan to make allot more! I have attached many pictures of original skirts and patterns to give you some inspiration. Also a you tube video of my own homemade skirt.<br />

I hope youve all had a great weekend? We have and at last the sun came out to see us, it seems to have been raining for so long!<br />
<br />
Well today Im going to be looking back at the swinging 60's! As I live in Essex just outside of London I have always been interested in the London scene during the 60's. My Dad was around and 'on the scene' during this time as he was a young thing living near the city he remembers the era well. <br />
<br />
My favourite look of the 60's is the MOD look, with haircuts by the now late great Vidal Sassoon, clothing from the likes of Mary Quant and Biba. Some of the bright young things of the day were Twiggy, Jean Shrimpton, Cilla Black, Lulu, David Bailey and Peggy Moffit.<br />
<br />
First of all I want to show you some pictures of Vidal Sassoon and his iconic haircuts. His influence is still felt today within hairstyling e.g Victoria Beckhams recent 'pob' haircut were she had an asymmetric bob cut is very similar to some Sassoon 60's bobs. Also the 'pixie cut' comes from his hair cut on Mia Farrow on the film Rosemary's baby. <br />

The fashion of the 60's was really different to that of the 40's and 50's but in some ways similar, e.g still glam and still holing on to some of the 50' look. But my best look from the 60's comes from Mary Quant - <br />

I have been inspired to do a Twiggy makeup look after researching for this blog post! So here is my version of the twiggy look. Next I plan to do Peggy Moffit!<br />

I hope I'm finding you all well? I'm afraid I haven't posted in a few days as my household have all had a really nasty bug that's doing the rounds and Ive been dealing with three sick little girls and a poorly Husband!<br />
<br />
But all are back to health now so here I am able to come and speak to you all!<br />
<br />
Today I'm going to be sharing with you one of my favourite jewellery makes. This brand of jewellery is all made by the Lovely Peggie Sue jewellery based in my very own Essex. I came across her through a friend on face book and then bumped into her a local vintage fair. That's where I bought my lovely lady face Jubilee special broach. I have since bought a matching pair of earrings and am very fond of the set. <br />

I'm featuring Peggie Sue today and will link to her web page at the bottom of my blog. Please pop along and pay her a visit (and be sure to tell her I sent you!).<br />
<br />
She makes the Jewellery out of a lovely material called fimo. I think it looks lovely. All items are made from her own designs. All of her jewellery is beautifully made and extremely reasonably priced.<br />
Here are some pictures of my personal favourite pieces - <br />

<br />
Today I'm going to be looking at 1940's fashion. My sister and I are getting together a little group of friends to go to a very exciting event! On 5th May in Shoreditch London is The Blitz Party. It's an evening of 1940's fun, fashion, music and cocktails. <br />The dress code is strict 40's gear civvie or uniform. They have live swing bands, singer and dancers. And you can have a 40's cocktail to drink to boot.<br />
<br />
I cant wait for this fab event, if you fancy popping along then take a look at the photos below for some outfit ideas.<br />

<br />
If you are looking for a 40's style outfit a good place to start is with a tea dress of bellow the knee skirt suit or a straight skirt with a nice little blouse with a cardigan. <br />
Also another option is to hire a WWII uniform and go for that option. <br />
<br />
When we've been to this amazing event I will of course post the pictures.<br />
Here is the link to the Blitz Party website. If you manage to go I'd love to see youre photos! You can upload them to my facebook page <a href="http://www.facebook.com/vintagedoris">www.facebook.com/vintagedoris</a> <br />

It was kicked off on Saturday with a hen party at Hooga bar in Chelmsford. The lovely ladies were given a Vintage hair and makeup lesson by my good self, starting with pin curling followed by an afternoon tea while their hair dried and set. Then we moved on to final styling and pinup style makeup. They had a lovely time and were all 'set' for the evening out that followed!<br />
<br />
The afternoon was provided by Calamitea Jane's Vintage Tea partie's @ <a href="http://www.calamiteajanesteaparties.co.uk/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.calamiteajanesteaparties.co.uk</a><br />

Mine was very busy and productive. <br />
<br />
After a lovely quiet Good Friday with family I had a photo shoot for my Vintage hair and makeup venture Bombshell Boutique Makeovers. This photo shoot was such great fun , I styled the look of the shoot with the help of my sister. Our lovely photographer Mick Parkins helped to put all the girls at ease and feel relaxed in front of the camera as they are not professional models but our friends. We went for a vintage glamour look with the slight feel of pinup. Here are some of the photo's.<br />

<br />
Well I have been busy this week! I had a fabulous photo shoot for my local vintage shop on Monday, Top to Toe Vintage in Essex. I will pop a link to the website at the bottom.<br />
The Photo shoot was at Diesel Punk Studios in Essex with Michael Lake as the Photographer. We were modelling clothes, hats, gloves and bags from the shop.<br />
<br />
It was such fun and I did the hair and make up for my Vintage hair and makeup sideline, Bombshell Boutique Makeovers. <br />
<br />
Take a look at the pictures and check out the site links I put at the bottom. xxx<br />

<br />
Well Ive had a very busy weekend, two vintage fairs and an ill Husband.<br />
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
The first Vintage fair I went to was yesterday (31st March) and it was in Chelmsford, The Vintage and Makers Market in Shire Hall. It was the first of a few they have running through the summer. I have a vintage hair and makeup stall at one on 26th May but more about that another time. </div>
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
Anyway there were lots of lovely vendors there a yummy tea room and some handmade items. I bought a lovely 1950's crop blouse (doubles up a great little jacket) from the love Truly Madly Vintage and also a pair of apple earrings. The people running fair and all the Vendors were lovely and friendly and I highly recommend it. I will list the dates at the bottom of this post.</div>

Then today (Sunday 1st April) I went off to the South Essex Vintage and Retro fair in South Benfleet. Once again lovely people, great music playing in the background with a lovely mix of jewellery and clothing. Now today I bought 3 broaches. One was a lovely sparkly cherry it goes with loads of my clothes (I love red!). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Next was a lucky Ptarmigan Claw, this is lovely and came in its original box with original tag. It looks like new and has been looked after very well. I love it! The Ptarmigan foot broaches and Grouse foot broaches are collect able pieces of Scottish Jewellery and were originally worn on Kilts, shawls and cloaks. This style of jewellery became fashionable the Victorian era and was worn on hunting trips for good luck. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
My next Lovely find was a handmade broach of a woman's face with a Union Jack hat on. Although not Vintage it is beautifully made and so stylish and lovely. This little gem is made by Peggie Sue Jewellery and she has some really lovely stuff available. I will pop a link to her Face book page at the bottom. Why not go and take a look and tell her I sent you!</div>
