A living model gives the piece so much more personality and you can better see how the clothing drapes and moves. For a long time the only model I had for my shop was, well, me. At a size 12/14, however, I can only ever model size large to extra large. Even if I get better at laying off the chocolate and doing pilates as often as I probably should there is still not much of a chance I'll be under a size 10. I'm just a big girl. Luckily for me, my dear old friend Tina isn't. She is the new face of Curious Knopf in the size range small to extra small.

Last night I got some tips on vintage make-up from <a href="http://www.superkawaiimama.com.au/">Super Kawaii Mama</a>. You can see the results in the photographs above. I'm wearing a fair amount of make-up in both, but it still looks natural and not too made up but also not too underdone. The two videos I watched are below. I like how down to earth she is and pleasant to listen to which is good because she has a lot of other great videos to watch.<br /><br />xo xo Rebeccah<br /><br /><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/YHTC4bo495I" allowfullscreen="" width="420" frameborder="0" height="315"></iframe><br /><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/e6-_-Q28uNw" allowfullscreen="" width="420" frameborder="0" height="315"></iframe><br /><br /></span></span></span>Curious Knopfhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18315370176150428410noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210467121207720717.post-9104675216149819732012-01-01T01:12:00.000-08:002012-01-01T01:18:59.087-08:00Happy New Year!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo8MjYJmp5uwGbIpRsO1e8__uqhgyI8RA2uM7eAV35MTDrD-LjLm1jIP94crXRjGYI1-16caE3rtFew_HzfHVxY99TqI7ge9lHloLoUEXjCFFCZMPDgzE0XCxw3RRrBPayUkY4wLE7y3oF/s1600/il_fullxfull.299145413.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 395px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo8MjYJmp5uwGbIpRsO1e8__uqhgyI8RA2uM7eAV35MTDrD-LjLm1jIP94crXRjGYI1-16caE3rtFew_HzfHVxY99TqI7ge9lHloLoUEXjCFFCZMPDgzE0XCxw3RRrBPayUkY4wLE7y3oF/s400/il_fullxfull.299145413.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5692589464929265522" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);"><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">2012 is finally here and it's the year of the dragon nonetheless!

And it all cost me way less than a 100 Euros which is even better.

Actually, when I see one worn in full apron Bavarian glory I almost get offended. ;) They are both sweet and sassy, both innocently girly and super sexy. They fit well. If you have a boyish figure they make you look more curvy. If you have a curvy figure, they hide the spots that are maybe just a little bit too curvy.</span></span></span>

If you don't know what heartsy is, it's a platform where you can buy vouchers for store credit an various online shops. My voucher costs $22 and will give you $55 in credit. You can use it to buy any of the fabulous vintage European clothing and dirndls I sell as well as my handmade jewelry. There are also special perks if you get a friend to buy, so spread the word!<br /><br /></span></span></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnVaz5jcfbo7ipdBlUCIoemNI0c2nN-h295R0dx1UAHIqVJXcTYwc3UUb3y3Sm5zasyDkvkDMKXWZzLMq8SfYMKXJ53tmYdlueDcBfYMaffsrX_tDzvhr4WJSmPQ2VCvfo1wKLCJuM0-Zn/s1600/il_fullxfull.217222908.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnVaz5jcfbo7ipdBlUCIoemNI0c2nN-h295R0dx1UAHIqVJXcTYwc3UUb3y3Sm5zasyDkvkDMKXWZzLMq8SfYMKXJ53tmYdlueDcBfYMaffsrX_tDzvhr4WJSmPQ2VCvfo1wKLCJuM0-Zn/s400/il_fullxfull.217222908.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5615381966890530626" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);"><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"></span></span></span><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);"></span></span><span style="font-family: times new roman;"><span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);"><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">The vouchers are also valid for 3 months, so if you'd like to buy one now and shop later that's also no problem. But you better act fast. The offer is only for a few days and only 100 vouchers are available, so once they're gone, they're gone.
