New Year Revamping (plus a pinup quiz)!

Nukke

Hey ladies (and gents!)

It's only a month away until the new year, and I thought this board needed a facelift. 

Last year we tried out a few new things--some worked for awhile, while others fell flat right away.  You may remember...

retro/vintage hair and makeup challenges
design a new badge contest
retro/vintage planning bio list

I was wondering if any of you wanted me to get any of these three thing going again, or if you have any other fun suggestions for games, polls, challenges, etc.  Any other suggestions? 

If you post nothing else about suggestions, at least post your quiz results for this quiz:

Which famous Pin up girl are you?

Which famous Pin up girl are you?

My Results:




Ava Gardner

You're like Ava Gardner.  Ava was a "country girl at heart".  She seemed to have a very laid back personality and was confident and comfortable in her own skin.  Besides her photos and movies, Ava was also famous for carrying on an affair with Frank Sinatra.  It's always been said that she left men in awe but no one would ever say she wasn't a lady.

haha! Yikes!
Which famous Pin up girl are you?Lana TurnerYou're like Lana Turner. Your personality and style may be a bit darker than most. You come off as mysterious and subtle. Like Lana, you may not have had an easy life. Ms. Turner had divorced eight times, had a problem with alcohol, and also had a lover who was murdered by her own daughter.www.youthink.com/quiz_images/full_219381943.jpg" alt="" />

This was fun! I got Olive Thomas

You're like Olive Thomas. Popular in the 1910s, Olive didn't lead a very smooth, positive life. The eloping with men, and the problem with alcohol probably were the leading cause of her becoming the black sheep of her family. You're the type of person who tends to keep to themselves and live out their life the way they want to. Like Olive, you're quite content with yourself and don't care much of what others think.

As for suggestions, I think that it might be helpful to make a sticky where we can post advice/links/pics about different decades. A lot of girls come here to find out about 50s dresses or 40s flowers etc. It might be nice to have a place where we can post advice so that we dont have to repeat all the time.

I like the idea of having some weekly things!

I'm Jane Russell. I wouldn't mind doing retro/vintage beauty weekly/monthly posts. My mom was a hairdresser during these times and I've been a makeup nut for years.

Those are all great ideas!  I like the weekly challenges too.  I think we should definitely start that in the new year.
