Perfect Pom Pom Confections - Vintage Ski Style
http://vintageskistyle.com/clothing-kit/pom-pom
The Small Print…. 19 January, 2014. Perfect Pom Pom Confections. A pom pom just has to be the perfect topping for the jauntiest woolly ski headwear, vintage or modern. It’s the cherry on the cake, the walnut on a chocolate whip (Rowntrees c.1970s, of course…) and, er, all Maltesers. It is, in fact, the knitted equivalent of a sparkler or those big, splendid Allium flower heads. It is, in short, a happy thing. The Scandinavians know a thing or two about woolly winter wear. This is a pom pom that, like...

The Small Print…. 16 October, 2013. Sewing your 1930s and 40s Ski Style. For anyone handy with a sewing machine – and sadly I didn’t inherit my Mum’s skills with scissors and sewing threads – it is possible to create your very own vintage ski style. I’ve featured vintage sewing patterns before ( here. But, as they are rarely thrown away, they keep popping up on my radar – otherwise known as Ebay. This sophisticated Simplicity pattern from the 1940s offers a warm, snug fit with its neatly adjustable buckl...

Vintage Ski Sounds - Vintage Ski Style
http://vintageskistyle.com/vintage-ski-sounds
The Small Print…. Top pop sounds and vintage skiing are a rare treat. I remember watching the Beatles fooling around in the snow in their 1965 film ‘Help’ while ‘Ticket to Ride’ provided the soundtrack. I can’t track down a clip but here’s John Lennon on skis with Cynthia in St. Moritz. There’s no music, no sound even, but it’s an adorable bit of film…. If you know any more cool pop videos showcasing sun and snow, let me know and I’ll add them here with pleasure. Share the Vintage Ski love.

http://vintageskistyle.com/bookshelf/rupert-bear
The Small Print…. 17 June, 2014. Vintage skiing with the creator of Rupert Bear. It may come as something of a surprise to learn that the artist who produced the divine illustration of the sand skier. In my previous post is none other than the artist who also drew Rupert Bear. Alfred Bestall took over the popular little cartoon strip in 1935 and. A travel poster from the early 1930s.

http://vintageskistyle.com/bookshelf/stop-press-french-revere-englishman
The Small Print…. 22 June, 2013. Stop Press: French monument to an Englishman! It makes an interesting and entertaining read, even for non-climbers like myself – and you can check it out for free, courtesy of Google books. But here is a taster of Whymper’s very direct style. Forced to take refuge on the Col du Lauteret, close to what is now the ski resort of Serre Chevalier and a classic Tour de France climb, he complains about the. 8216;wretched little hospice’. And the workmen with their ‘. This wasn&#...

Summer Sand Skiing - Vintage Ski Style
http://vintageskistyle.com/summer/sand-skiing
The Small Print…. 10 June, 2014. Impatient for snow in the summer months, fans of falling down mountains thought sand hills may supply similar thrills. Sand, of course, has the added advantage of permanence whereas the white stuff is rather annoyingly prone to icing over or simply disappearing altogether. And with the thermometer hovering well above freezing, long toned limbs can be flaunted in sporty shorts and skimpy tops. A fag spouting from pouting red lips is. My thanks to Florida Memory.
