<span lang=""><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It's been half a year since I have blogged. 6 flippin' months. Such a long time that the changes here on blogger are totally alien to me. Help! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In these 6 months so much has happened and I wasn't ready to share. I have a tendency of playing austrich during a depression. But I suppose it's time to get my head out of the sand. 2012 should have been a great year and it started great but soon after my life had come crashing down on me. So many times I had wanted to share on here and wrote mental novels but in the end I never did. And now I don't <em>want</em> to write a novel about it and take apart every single bit of emotion. So just the very short version - Mr. Bossy had cancelled our wedding. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The important thing is - we've made it through and we are still together albeit not married. I don't think we've yet come out the other end but we're on our way there. We've caused my family a lot of hurt and financial trouble and inconvenience with the cancellation and we were both truly sorry for this. But it was something he had to do and I have come to understand why and I also think in the longer run it was for the better.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span lang=""><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Another thing that had been depressing me for the past 6 months is a flippin' chronic allergic eye infection and eczema and/or psoriasis. For half a year now I've been wearing full time glasses. Granted they are fantastic glasses from <a href="http://www.deadmensspex.com/">Dead Men's Spex</a> but no make-up. Or hardly ever. And if I wore make-up I'd regret it soon because it drives me frickin' crazy. After many appointments at the GPs and a long wait for a referral I finally have an appointment with the eye clinic in hospital in about a weeks time. Yay! Am still waiting for a referral for allergy testing and the dermatologists....</span></div>

<span lang=""><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It is so very boring not to wear make-up. Hair spray is also a no no for me these days. Hence my decision to cut a fringe so I can leave my hair down just like that and still look how I like to look. It also covers up the alopecia caused by the eczema/psoriasis. I now feel like Rachel Berry off Glee - with my pretty mostly polka dotted dresses, alice bands and long straight hair and a fringe (bangs). Certainly got a nose to match hers!</span> </div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Ok enough moaning done. I do hope my superficial vain problems will be sorted soon - the Twinwoods event is happening in the very near future and this year I've entered the beauty pageant. Purely to pick my moany old vain self up. So girlies - I'd be really grateful if you'd vote for me. You have to like the Twinwoods <a href="http://www.facebook.com/piamariameyer#!/twinwoodevents">Event</a> page first (that's a condition so votes count) and then like <a href="http://www.facebook.com/piamariameyer#!/photo.php?fbid=10150819656347657&set=a.10150806863957657.393202.30797112656&type=3&theater">my pic</a>.

And my ears get cold!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So during the very cold days I am very happy to ditch the hair styling and just plonk a beret on my head.

The young Bossy will start proper school which means I will actually brave full time work life again and I also hope that we can add to the family with a baby Bossy. And in terms of vanity I have 4 photoshoots coming up in the first half of the year - plus an engagement and a wedding shoot.

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> You've heard about Sarah before - she's also the owner of 4th time round curiosity shop (blogged about <a href="http://littlemissbossysadventures.blogspot.com/2011/06/home-is-where-vintage-heart-is-4th-time.html">HERE</a>) and you've seen her amazing work in my <a href="http://littlemissbossysadventures.blogspot.com/2011/10/home-is-where-vintage-heart-is-jez.html">previous post</a>. Sarah is my personal vintage guru in Bedford. If you want something, need something, like something - she will know or probably possess it. She's one colourful and great lady!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Her newest venture is a vintage hairstyling business - Sarah's Doo-Wop-Do's. Specialising in the 40s, 50s and 60s she can also cover all other eras and has great experience with psychobilly style and synthetic dreads.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> One of the most squee-worthy events in Bedford recently was the start of a vintage Shop - Rose-tined Vintage has opened it's doors (blog post to follow) and Sarah has her own little hairstyling booth in the shop. It looks so pretty and like so much fun you want to move into the little booth!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Being hooked on all things American already as a child - like comics and Happy Days (I am not getting the theme song out of my head now!) he fell in love with the 50s very early on.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">In his youth he was heavily involved in the psychobilly scene (one of my regrets - something I never knew of and would have loved in my youth) and up to this day he is a huge supporter of rockabilly music and organises quite a few music events in Bedford. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">He is also a selftaught pin-up photographer who created the world of "Reckless Girls" - they are his take on a pin-up and vintage loving community in Bedford. And the community is thriving!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">For the upcoming year he'll bring out a Reckless Girls calendar!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">Recently I also had the pleasure to work with Jez - it was really good fun with a very pretty outcome - will share very soon.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Have a look at his photography - <a href="http://www.facebook.com/jezbrownphotography">Jez Brown Photography</a> and <a href="http://www.facebook.com/recklessgirls?ref=ts">Reckless Girls</a>.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">If you would like to book a session prices start as litte as £25 per hour and negotiable editing rates. If you'd like to have a stylist, he can organise Sarah's Doo-Wop-Do's who did all the styling and hair on the pictures shown. I will blog about her and her prices very shortly. Hair accessories are by Lil' Mischief - and again, I am repeating myself, will blog about it soon.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Still can only upload them one by one.... </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">But with my boy's birthday last week I had been very busy anyway - hope to be back again now from my short hiatus. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I'd been selling my old clothes on Ebay again recently and things went fairly well - so I was able to stock up on some vintage! A few more outfit-posts are to come! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Go and buy gorgeous handmade gifts, great vintage clothing, retro homewares & books and then browse the handmade section of the market too! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Extra special this upcoming Saturday: besides her "4th time Around Curiosity Shop" stall Sarah will also have a vintage styling salon at the market for the day - so if you are in need of a vintage make-over - this is the place to be for you! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Badly.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This loverrrrly dress I found months ago at the <a href="http://littlemissbossysadventures.blogspot.com/2011/06/home-is-where-vintage-heart-is-vintage.html">Flitwick Originate Fayre</a> in February - it cost a mere £3! I loved it straight away, obviously. It's an interesting dress - it has an (I think) expensive looking top with two golden sailor themed buttons at the back and a fairly long skirt but with a drawstring. I think it's very typically 80s does retro. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Months ago I have blogged <a href="http://littlemissbossysadventures.blogspot.com/2011/01/granny-chic-on-budget.html">HERE</a> about this darling little swim dress from Bon Marche which costs an affordable £20. Well affordable for the average person - not so much for me. So I went - as usual - on an ebay hunt and tracked one down for less and it's as good as new! It is a size too big but never mind. I am such a sucker for navy and white polka dots I just had to have it!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I had a good look around and really all shops have some kind of wrap-around retro style on offer, a few stores do swim dresses.

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I washed my hair, used setting lotion and attempted a wet set with a plain elastic alice band. Indeed the set itself was done in a jiffy - but I had troubles at the back and because my hair is so fine and slippery it just kept coming out again. Instead of the suggested 70s flick at the front I opted for an elevated pin curl with my fringe rolled under. I then had the head band across my forehead which gave me a headache within a minute. I kept on moving it and settled for having it very near my roots - now that was a bad mistake because when I woke up the next day I had the band deeply - really deeply - imprinted in my skin. And bloody hell was that sore. So in the morning I moved it behind the pin curl - like on the picture below. I wish I'd done that straight away because the imprint lasted for 2 days! And it's still a little sore to the touch. I may have very sensitive skin (or head) or my band was just to tight - but I won't be doing it like that again. But on the plus side - it was really comfy to sleep on, much more so than pin curls. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBVd9f-kk_Q5gjNklXKyhyphenhyphenedPkmA9JsTx5-90rLCKzmQeOABkAar9mN0agli03-gS397aFMcRB2FkbgI9OnWmA-R9tE80cHgmdvmmLSDG5x6YbaY51kZuBe9AP0LVEmIKp6yZfbBwNqaQ/s1600/ge_01.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" i$="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBVd9f-kk_Q5gjNklXKyhyphenhyphenedPkmA9JsTx5-90rLCKzmQeOABkAar9mN0agli03-gS397aFMcRB2FkbgI9OnWmA-R9tE80cHgmdvmmLSDG5x6YbaY51kZuBe9AP0LVEmIKp6yZfbBwNqaQ/s400/ge_01.jpg" width="308" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">The outcome wasn't bad but certainly not groundbreakingly good. It curled a bit more at the sides but the back was only wavy at the most. I suppose it would be ok for a Veronica Lake peeka-boo look - but for some odd reason I could not brush the curls/waves over my hand - they liked staying very separated. I have to mention that my formerly blue Lottabody setting lotion turned purple in the sun. Maybe it has lost it's magic? Has that ever happened to anyone before?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">I also didn't quite like that the ends seemed to be very - strawy. With pin curling you tuck them in and they get curled aswell and I suppose with this method they just get stuffed into the band without actually bending them around. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I didn't trust this set so I decided to do a little Vivian Leigh and pin it back at the front - and I was quite right it only lasted a few hours.

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">And on a different note - maybe it's the summer (well the 3 days of sunshine we had here recently) or maybe I have just watched to much Ugly Betty - I am really into yellow at the moment. I never disliked yellow but I was always quite indifferent to it. I'd never buy anything yellow nor choose a yellow thing. This skirt I only bought 3 summers ago because I just had a baby, could only fit into skirts and it was reduced to a £1 in Primark. And now 3 years later I wear it all the time! I suddenly love yellow! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Maybe it's just my constant sunny disposition!

<div style="text-align: center;">Sarah herself is quite a dazzling character and certainly one to look out for in the vintage scene in Bedford. She lives the vintage lifestyle , her home is full of retro furniture and her wardrobe is fit to bursting with vintage clothing! In her own words: "I really love the look of the 1940’s so prim & proper but so very, very glamorous. I’m always running around in a ‘nice dress’ and love to find one off’s in charity shops, although I generally customise all my clothes. I love local places like Bletchley Park & Shuttleworth and the Twinwoods Festival as I get a chance to really dress up and meet like minded vintage loving people!"</div><br />

And there's a new exciting thing going on - in many of the Sure Start Centres across central Bedfordshire they are doing so-called Baby Brasseries - friendly drop-in groups where mummy can sit, chat and eat cake, baby or toddler can play, mummy can breastfeed without inhibition and there is always a trained peer supporter to help onsite. Have a look at your local Sure Start Centre for your weekly Baby Brasserie!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Apart from the odd gem here and there you find a lot of frumpy looking grandma stuff from the 80s - but said items have huge potential. Shortening hems and sleeves, nipping the waist in or just a different use than intended - all great ways to give granny chic a new lease of life.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">When my Dad came to visit the other week he brought me an old blouse which once belonged to my late Nan. My family thought I would like it because it looked "vintagey" - and quite right they were!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPim9vuvwa9a0PoIORMteG8rCFlwkieb1q7UBcT_RBPLxPheX9Op6XFRnwMdBvllrhGm22e0JwV40ffLDOMM7L_ZrNVEKJ7D2Ybi2I0AzVXn-FXMIcW16KUa5j9s8_R-YMebZm7IV2lL0/s1600/Pe_05.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" i$="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPim9vuvwa9a0PoIORMteG8rCFlwkieb1q7UBcT_RBPLxPheX9Op6XFRnwMdBvllrhGm22e0JwV40ffLDOMM7L_ZrNVEKJ7D2Ybi2I0AzVXn-FXMIcW16KUa5j9s8_R-YMebZm7IV2lL0/s400/Pe_05.jpg" width="308" /></a></div><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">This blouse is very typically 80s - crinkly rayon, baggy cut, no collar, long wide sleeves and no shape at all - but indeed a very 40s-esque print! At first I wanted to give it to charity because it was just wrong on me (or anyone else for that matter) but I couldn't do it because it was my Nan's. </div><div style="text-align: center;">And this morning I tried to tie it at waistlevel - a style I always thought I'd look absolutely hideous with. Well I don't think I did - not with high waisted trousers anyway. Granted those are not ideal but I am on the hunt for white ones at the moment - black ones would be better than my grey ones aswell of course.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The Twinwood Festival is a huge 1940s and 1950s music and dance event dedicated to Glenn Miller! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">And this year is a very special one because it's the 10th anniversary! I've been living in this area for a while now but I have never made it there, can you believe it? Last year I had visitors, the previous years I'd been to Austria or just plainly out of money. But this year I am more than determined to go! Come what may!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The festival is from the 27th of August until the 29th of August and takes place in Clapham, which is a village very near Bedford. It is also the home of the Glenn Miller museum, Glenn Millers history with Bedford and Clapham is so very intriguing - read <a href="http://www.twinwoodevents.com/museums.html">HERE</a> more about the background. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The festival will provide non-stop live music throughout the days and nights with various dancefloors to hop around to swing, jazz, jive and rock'n'roll from our favourite eras the 40s and 50s!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">And of course countless stalls with vintage clothing and accessories, make-up and hairstyling, etc. I am also very excited about the fashion shows, air displays, re-enactors and all the living history around!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Another great excitement for this year is the attempt to break the Guinness World Record at the world largest swing dance! This will happen on Sunday the 28th at approx. 7.30 pm in the main arena. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Come and hop along!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Please have a look at the website for the brilliant line-up, more information about ticket prices and the campsite and don't forget to check out the photo gallery! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Now that actually calls for a bad pun...</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Following fashion trends has never been my thing no matter what era or what style I prefered over the years. And jumpsuits are certainly a trend that EVERYONE seems to follow - young girls, teenagers, women, bloody everyone is wearing them. The natural thing for me would be to totally dismiss it but I have to admit I rather like them. There are so many out there it's hard to decide. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I chose one via Littlewoods - obviously because of the polkadots!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSHdbJXAOZSQ0R3ISkxc1AVXngDX6DFCUAg-yvsERuhE8fZT3-MSB2BtU-yhOrA_uoU1wQlzmn0Hz3JDyeBEfaDJUlGoTBQ0iyCguOKLKXgGWa4FtxUru6ifDaPeaamG1uCmJASAnwhgQ/s1600/03.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSHdbJXAOZSQ0R3ISkxc1AVXngDX6DFCUAg-yvsERuhE8fZT3-MSB2BtU-yhOrA_uoU1wQlzmn0Hz3JDyeBEfaDJUlGoTBQ0iyCguOKLKXgGWa4FtxUru6ifDaPeaamG1uCmJASAnwhgQ/s400/03.jpg" t8="true" width="177" /></a></div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Even though a short one would be much more 40s I went for a long legged one. I wear skirts nearly all the time - frankly I 'm quite sick of them. Even though the suit is so not authentic vintage looking I think with the right hair and accessories (yes to my vintage brooch, not so much my very modern Hello Kitty watch) it has quite a nostalgic feel to it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Suit is from Littlewoods (came with a yellow belt), so are the red wedges, I paired an old H&M t-shirt underneath and I hardly ever go out without my trusted red Primark cardigan. </td></tr>

<div style="text-align: center;">The suit doesn't only look like a giant pyjama it also feels like one. It is so super comfy I don't ever want to get out of it. The downside - it is so not flattering and makes me rather look humongous around my mid area. But what the heck if I look like a whale, at least I look like a cute one!</div><br />
