I love the 30's. I agree that the packaging was amazing and so classy. A fly on the wall when high end was truly high end.

Interesting that you mention Richard Hudnut. He was the father in law of Rudolph Valentino. His stepdaughter, Natascha Rambova (real name Winifred Shaughnessy) married Valentino in the early 1920s.

Such a loss...Field's was great. I hated the Macy-cization of every department store in the US around the early 2000s. They tried to buy us loyal customers off by continuing Frango mints, but we weren't having it.

Marshall Fields was bought by Dayton Hudson corporation who was then bought out by Macy's. infact the signature Marshall Fields store in downtown is now branded as a Macy's

Laura I can't wait to join your channel finally! You're one of the first YT channels I subscribed to❤ There are still 11 Sears still operating in the US and 1 in Puerto Rico. Sadly, the one I shopped in last year just closed in April. It was a surreal experience, rather abandoned already yet filled with all the familiar features I always remembered. And there still stands right where I live an old Sears building containing new businesses but retaining its original structure. Rocking on.

My mom who was from UK, grew up in the late 30's & 40's. She had this old lipstick (I don't know what company made it) but all I do remember about it was on the side of the tube it came in was these little pieces (like a tiny metal lever) that you would push up on the sides to open the lipstick and push down to close. Do you know anything about this lipstick? I saw it in the 1960's when I was growing up and she had kept it, put away in an old sewing box. I don't know if it was a lipstick she had bought in UK or bought somewhere when she moved to USA.

@Laurajaneatelier Ай бұрын

Yes I have a few of those. That was before the twist up mechanism was invented

@patriciasalem3606 Ай бұрын

I remember being a kid in the '60s when that Sear's catalogue would come for the holidays. You would make that thing last all year thumbing through the pages. We had a lot of nicer department stores in the Boston area too, like Filene's and Jordan Marsh. Then there were the more luxurious stores like Neiman Marcus (which came later, I believe), Lord & Taylor, and Bonwit Teller. It seems like they all folded around the time Macy's took over everything. ☹ Same with Marshall Field's in the Midwest and Wanamaker's in Philly, both of which were bought out by Macy's, if I recall correctly.

I remember buying a heavy tube of HR mascara that didn’t have any bristles at the end of the wand. It was just metal with notches or something, but it felt luxurious to me. I couldn’t wait to save my babysitting money and buy one. 😂

Thank you for all of the info you share. I am curious though...why did they call some creams; "vanishing" creams--was that to claim it made wrinkles vanish? I just never heard why that word was used.

Yes, just a handful now open . Was watching a KZfaq video on them just a few days ago. They're pretty sad, bare, and outdated looking now, but when I was a kid in the 60's and '70's it was great to shop there. Always candy stop with my own little bag on the way out that was in the front of the store. 😊

Hii Laura 🥰 i enjoyed watching this video so much! i have a question is it true that women back then in the beginning of the 1900 and in the 1930s had a glowier skin and their skin was better and less problamatic than now? I also heard that all creams were mineral oil based? Thank you ❤❤
