I've been into all the rockabilly stuff for awhile so it's cute to see you guys get all excited about this

All the girls in the scene pretty much dress up like living dolls 24/7.

Here's some old pictures!

And here's a recent one: (excuse the crappy qual, it's a phone picture)

As you can see, I'm getting better at it, lol.

Very 1930's! I wish you could find a cloche hat to wear with your outfit!

[PomPoko]

I had a go

Everyone looks so beautiful!

This is my first go at a challenge, I had fun. but it was actually a lot harder to do this kinda makeup than I thought it would be! oh and I had a couple of eyeliner related incidents which were annoying!

please excuse the messy hand in this one. and the lips look washed out

Then my dog wanted to join in:

He then took offence at my flower, and attacked my head!

what is that you are wearing on your lips?

Here's some pics from a recent photoshoot I did...(I was the MA but the photog asked me to join in for a few frames). I know, I know we look very pink/tan! I think that was the editor's fault.

Models: Shannon Marie and Nikki Horror
Photographer: Larry (Darkman) Clark
Pin Up Shoot #2

P.S.! If you girls are looking for retro gear, check out stopstaringclothing.com, daddyos.com, babygirlboutique.com and pinupgirlclothing.com. Those are the best sites to find dresses and accessories.

in the first two pics I am only wearing lipliner

(estee lauder apple cordial, I think was the name of it) cos i couldnt find any other reds...it made my lips dry super fast though, as you can imagine. Then I remembered I own venetian lip glass, so I rubbed off the original lipliner, re lined in the traditional way and applied venetian liberally on my lips. so in the third pic its lipliner and venetian.

All these pics are absolutely stunning gals. I might just have a crack at this when I unpack my make-up, lol.

 

[Dreamergirl3]

xJudyx, what lipstick are you wearing? It looks amazing!

 

[MelodyKat]
