Fifties Dive

This is a cool whiskey animated pillow for those who love the 1950s! The small comfy square has an alcohol bottle and has a nice brand name on it. It is covered in colors of black, beige, and orange. This pillow is small and has been a limited edition since 1943. The shading of this glass looks realistic and would go well with a farm or modern design living room. My friend has a couch pillow that is similar to this, but she has a wine one. Seeing this reminds me of her house parties she has all the time and how invites her book club friends as well. She is a popular person.

 Thoughts on 50's Hairstyles Hairstyles back in this era were mostly shown of women with short curly hair.  They had big curls that made the volume in their hair rise and looked so shiny as well.  The women put curlers in their hair the night before while it was wet so once they took them out they would have lushish waves on the top of their heads. What is not talked about is that they did have long hair in this era.  Those who did produced the commercials and photoshoots just did not include these types of women/hairstyles as much. All of these women had lots of volume and head full of hair as well, I am quite jealous.  Those who had longer hair in the 1950's styled their hair with bigger curlers the night before as well.  I would have to say I love the look of both hairstyles and I found them so intriguing!  Women's Hairstyles in the 1950s Many of the women in this time period went for the short hair with curls as a way to look fancy and presentable....

This cat clock is a nostalgic but cool gift for those who love the 50’s! The item has a longhand and shorthand that blends in well with the background color. The overall colors for this clock are white and black. This cat has a white outstanding bow and has a smile on it’s face. The eyes move and so does the tail that sways back and forth. My grandfather used to have a clock like this, and it used to freak me out as a kid. It brings back lots of good memories from my childhood. I loved it but hated it at the same time.

These glasses are so unique looking for those who love the golden age! This box consists of a couple glasses and they are all small. They can fit a nice enough alcohol and you can see through it as well. These whiskey glasses come in a big cardboard box and has a nice print on it. The box is recyclable, which is good for the environment and you can enjoy a nice glass with some friends. My friend has some of these glasses and she loves to host parties consisting with them. It reminds me of the time she invited her boyfriend over and he fell twice. I felt bad for him.

My aunt has a cup that is this similar and it reminds me of when she gets her morning coffee. She bought one for my grandpa, but he does not use it much. Anyway, she loves her coffee all black without any creamer which is quite strange.

This is a stunning Marilyn mask for those who love the 1950’s! The mask has a quote directly from when this famous actress was alive and has her signature red lip.

You can see the name brand called, “Coca Cola” on the front and they can hold lots of both these spices. They resemble the older soda shapes and look well put together. My cousin has these salt and pepper shakers that are similar to these two and she uses them a lot. She got these from her friend, and it turns out her friend bought the same ones too!

The clock has a circle in the middle but lack of numbers on it. The minute and hour hand are in a black color and have different designs. My cousin has this same clock in her house, and it reminds me of my grandfathers as well. He used to have one in his bedroom and used to tell me about how he made it in his workshop. He ended up not selling this clock in a garage sale but instead kept it.

What Were Women's Jeans Were Like? Women's jeans in this era were fitted at the top but were loose at the bottom. I have noticed that a lot of the women in this decade rolled up the end of the jeans so it sits above the ankles. I do have to say that the jeans women wore in the 50's look so comfortable and somewhat fashionable but not all of them as some are questionable.  Some look a bit funny with the jeans just covering the knees and you can see their caves and ankles.  Others have good stylish prints that disguise the jeans and some look like men kaki's but could be used for job interview's. From the photo's I have found I love the jeans with a matching dark belt, and some chains hanging off from the side of the belt. It looks like pants from those K-pop Idols clothing.  Jeans Within Old Photos These jeans or pants for woman are not mentioned much upon searching within the 1950's category and I can see why as these do not resemble the image of society bac...

It has long dark green leaves and other different flowers that have a fluffy white top. The overall cup is tall and looks like it can hold lots of coffee in it.

My grandma used to have a small teacup just like this one and I remember she used to tell me stories about how she met my grandpa while holding it. They met while my grandpa flew in from the military and settled within Arizona.

 In this video, this woman starts explaining firm rollers are more for if you want lots of waves and the curls are tight.  The pin curls are more for those who want lose curls and smoother on top and lots of rolls at the bottom. To have the hairstyles just like women in the 50's, you will need lots of bobby pins or a pin curling hair clip and the more you have of these the better.  You will also need a comb, a spray bottle of water, and a hairbrush.  It is recommended you wash your hair and let it dry somewhat so it will hold longer in your hair until the next time you choose to wash it.  Next, you take a small strand of hair and you turn it inwards so it makes a circle. You continue this until the circle bunch of hair is to your scalp and pin it in this position.  Once you are doing the curls throughout your head make sure the curls are facing the front, which is towards your head and not away from your head.  One thing that is crucial is that you do ...

These are beautiful posters gift for those who love the 1950’s! The picture boards have four different deserts that are for sale. There is strawberry, root beer float, hot fudge, and vanilla shake. All of them have whipped cream and are of affordable prices. They all seem to have a rough but straight to the point font and all of them look super yummy.

She loves to wear her dresses to 50’s style diners.

Women in the 1950's usually woke up with robes or a see through dress in the mornings, I think the type of clothing depended on how old the ladies were.  Once they were up and around they took off their robe or dress and were left in their bra's and high-waisted panties.  These women would begin to put on a bit of a longer skirt with hooks hanging to fasten some tights that would come with a zipper.  This item of clothing was supposed to accentuate the hips and make them look wider. After this the ladies would put on their stockings, which they made sure to wear everyday and attach them to the hooks.  The next step would be to put a thinner skirt over the first skirt mentioned and this one extended along to the knee.  After this would come the dress that you have chosen to wear and this would cover up the two skirts and some of the tights.  What surprised me is that these dresses did not look like a thick material at all but of a thin material.  Since ...
