A Glamour Girl's Wish List Part 2

Part 2 of the wish list compiles the November entries from our Facebook fan page.

Between now and December we'll be posting the items we think any glamour girl or pin up would covet for her wish list! Stay tuned because you never know what will show up in your news feed or when!

#7 Hey, we may not be able to really look like Petty Girls in real life (mostly because Petty painted his models with longer legs and smaller heads than normal human beings actually have), but you can sure try! Petty aficianados know that 95% of his pin ups are shown chatting on the phone.

Real vintage phones are getting hard to come by without spending a few hundred bucks, but fear not! There are reproduction versions available for less - both corded and cordless - and some are even available in modern color choices.

Pottery Barn and Pottery Barn Teen offer these two cordless options:

Grand Cordless Phone - office model

Grand Cordless phone - bedroom model

They are $129 and $99 respectively. The choice is bigger and less expensive if you want to go with the more authentic corded variety.

The Crosley desk phone comes in a variety of colors including pink and turquoise for around $45:

Crosley Corded desk phone.

You really can't imagine the sensation this little number caused when Bell Telephone introduced it in the late 50's. Oval? Colors? What are they thinking? It's the classic Princess style (wish someone would do this in a cordless). This one can also be found in the $45 range:

If you really want to go authentic there's this awesome speciman from www.vintagephone.com. It's an Automatic Electric 1940's wall phone for $275:

Yes, the picture is the right way around!

If you're one of those little Generation Z (for zygote I suspect ;-)) young 'uns who just think a landline is too L7 there's always this retro-styled headset for your cell phone for $45:

#9 Normally when it comes to the holidays I'm a traditionalist; live tree, turkey dinner with all the trimmings, waiting until Christmas morning to open your presents. I could be sorely tempted to make an exception for this:

I can't even begin to imagine the retro glamour this could bring to my living room! I would probably pass out from the overwhelming gorgeousness and the myriad decorating possibilities!
