Future Jump Into Vintage posts will be once a week or less, instead of daily.  I just can't keep up with a daily schedule!

Hair Report: I'm still struggling with carving out time to wash and set my hair.  I'm rather uncomfortable sleeping on my rollers, but I can't seem to get it done on a day off where I could wear them all day instead.  I set my hair early in the week, but it was too late in the evening so the crown curls weren't dry by the time I had to work the next day.  They, of course, didn't stay and I had to reset them after work. But, I got them tighter than the bottom curls so my hair was slightly wonky and not as lovely as week one.

I used mousse these first two weeks, but my setting lotion just arrived so I'm trying that out this week to see if there's a significant difference.

I think this will be my new last day of set hairstyle. It hides the fact that my curls are drooping and my hair needs a wash. It looks weird from this angle, and I didn't manage a face up pic! The front....

I was going for something like a poodle updo, but less curly, so I left out some bangs and pulled the rest into a high ponytail.  The side...

You can still see my bobby pins, but I'll work on hiding those when I get better at making the curls.  The other side...

I took pieces of the ponytail and rolled them into barrel pin curls.  The back...

Wardrobe update:  I picked up another vintage looking dress, which I'll debut sometime in June. I also caught a cute hummingbird brooch for $1.00 at the thrift store. The head is gold with crystals, while the wings, body, and tail are blue, purple, green, and red enamel.
