Vintage Life Books

My favorite one I've discovered so far is "The Bombshell Manual of Style" by Lauren Stoval!

Thanks for mentioning it here too. :) I've read it THREE times and will definately read it again, I haven't found any book as great as this. Have a lovely day. :); ▶ Reply to This

It states everything that makes a Bombshell a Bombshell, from what she wears, the perfumes she loves, to how she amuses a man. The artwork is so lovely and the text a pleasure to read. I was so delighted to find out what I am - a Bombshell. I've always known I was different, but not knowing what I was. Perhaps you can find it used at Amazon, I buy a lot of used books and have never been dissappointed.; ▶ Reply to This

My absolute favourite is 'What every woman should know - Lifestyle lessons from the 1930's'. It's a gorgeous hardback book filled with genuine newspaper clippings from a British newspaper (Daily Mail) in the 30's. It contains lots of beautiful photographs and wonderful tips on fashion, make-up, housework, cooking, exercises etc. I treasure this book!; ▶ Reply to This
