I wore an older dress from eShakti with this unique hat from the 1940s and a delicate brooch at the neck to create a bit of a keyhole look. I am so honoured that Magdalena invited me to experience her show.
Meet me for coffee at Adlerhof The Glambassador 2025-09-16 | I wonder if I’ll ever be able to experience all of the amazing cafes in Vienna during my time here. It’s a good thing I have friends who like to meet up for coffee, breakfast or brunch so we can enjoy these stunning cafes. It’s cooler today with a bit of rain this morning, so the sweetheart blouse from The House of Foxy was the perfect top to pair with trousers from Halara. I wasn’t sure if this color combination worked, but you know what?? I love it!#1940sStyle ##vintagestyle #plussizevintage #vintagehair #viennacafe

How Home Economics Tried to Free Women’s Time (and What Happened Next) The Glambassador 2025-08-17 | How Home Economics Tried to Free Women’s Time (and What Happened Next)Was Home Economics ever really about apple pies and aprons?Or was it something much more radical?In this video, I take a deeper look at the surprising feminist origins of Home Economics—how it began as a science-based movement to improve women’s lives, and how it slowly became dismissed as outdated or oppressive. Spoiler: the history is more complex than it looks.From time-saving kitchen innovations and public health education to career training and scientific research, Home Ec once aimed to free up women’s time so they could access more choices—not fewer.But after WWII, that mission shifted. So… what happened?What you'll learn in this video:- The real roots of Home Economics in feminism, science, and public policy- How it was used to open doors for women in higher education and work- Post-war shifts that changed how we view domestic work today- My personal reflections on homemaking, feminism, and intention vs. impact- Where Home Ec stands today—and why people still want these skillsChapters: 00:00 Introduction01:59 The Stereotype vs. The Reality05:54 Empowerment...With Strings Attached08:01 The Post-War Shift13:35 The Modern Connection19:37 Can We Make A Feminist Case for Home Economics?

Where should we retire in France? The Glambassador 2025-07-06 | We’re not moving just yet — but we’ve started the search!My husband, Mildred and I recently took a two-week road trip through the French countryside, visiting towns around Poitiers, Angoulême, and the Loire Valley to see if any of them could be “the one.”My latest YouTube video is the start of a slower, more intentional journey to find a place where we can one day settle down. Think charming villages, market days, riverside walks, and a lot of beautiful scenery.Watch the full video on my channel now. Do you have a favorite French region we should visit next? Let me know in the comments!
Where Should We Retire In France? The Glambassador 2025-07-06 | Where Should we Retire in France? That’s the big question my husband and I are starting to explore — and in this video, we take our very first scouting trip to find out.We spent two weeks road-tripping through central and western France, visiting the areas around Poitiers, Angoulême, and Tours to see if any of these regions could be the right fit for our future retirement. We stayed in a quiet countryside gîte, visited charming villages and market towns, and evaluated each place based on what matters most to us: access to healthcare, proximity to Paris, local markets, mild weather, community life, and architectural charm.This isn’t a “we’re moving” vlog — we’re still years away from retiring. But this is the beginning of a slower, more intentional journey to find a place where we can one day settle down and build a new chapter of our life in France.Towns we visited include:Poitiers · Chauvigny · Ruffec · La Rochefoucauld · Jarnac · Angoulême · Loudun · Chinon · Azay-le-Rideau · AmboiseIf you’re also dreaming of retiring in France, curious about small-town life, or just love slow travel through the French countryside, I hope you enjoy coming along for the ride.Chapters00:00 Introduction02:01 Why We’re Scouting France04:34 Retirement Checklist10:43 Where We Stayed11:35 Poitiers & Surrounding Areas13:10 Angoulême & Surrounding Areas15:05 Tours & The Loire Valley17:35 Where to Next?Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE, LIKE AND COMMENT!*****************************************************************Find more information here: https://linktr.ee/TheGlambassadorInterested in supporting my journey?Check out my Patreon for behind-the-scenes content, monthly meet-ups, and a wonderful community of vintage lovers!http://www.patreon.com/theglambassadorJoin my Facebook Groups for more fun and inspiration: Vintage Fashion Group - facebook.com/groups/fashionstyleartofaccessorizing1930s & 1940s Authentic Hairstyling Group - facebook.com/groups/30sand40sHairstylingforLadies*****************************************************************Music by Epidemic Sounds epidemicsound.com/referral/z281cband Storyblocks storyblocks.com//DISCLAIMER: Links included in this description might be affiliate links.

1930s Night Out The Glambassador 2025-07-02 | Last weekend a friend and I went to @thedarlingdelilahs Summer Soirée. I’ve wanted an excuse to finally wear this custom 1930s dress from @yearsgonebyboutique I had it made just before we left for Vienna and I absolutely love it.We didn’t end up staying too long at the soirée because it was just too bloody hot in that room. But we saw a few performances, including the stunning @luisevonpuderluder After we left Hades…we skipped over to the gorgeous bar at the @diejosefinewien . Apparently it’s billed as an “American Bar”. Not really sure what that means, but they had AC and a ginormous drink list. So we sat and chatted and had a grand ole time. Thanks @miss_uta for braving the heat to try and have some fun. #vintagenightout #vintageVienna #1930sStyle #vintagestyle #plussizevintage #vintagehair #vintagehairstyle #curvyvintage

I’ve Been on YouTube for 5 Years - Here’s How Much Ive Made as a Small Creator The Glambassador 2025-06-08 | I’ve been on YouTube for 5 years – Here’s how much I've made as a small creatorWondering how much small YouTubers actually make? In this video, I’m pulling back the curtain on my income after five years on YouTube, four of which I’ve been monetized. I’m sharing what YouTube has paid me through AdSense, how the monetization system works, and why I’ve chosen not to chase trends or go viral at any cost.I’ll also talk about the emotional ups and downs of being a vintage content creator, my honest thoughts on the “1950s housewife for a day” trend, and how I stay true to my values even if it means growing more slowly. Plus, I’ll give you a peek into my filming setup, my other income streams (like Patreon and Vintage Style Sessions), and what I’ve learned after years of creating thoughtful, slower content in a fast-paced digital world.Whether you’re thinking of starting a YouTube channel, curious about what goes on behind the scenes, or just want a realistic look at small creator income—this one’s for you.Chapters:00:00 Intro01:30 How YouTube Monetization Works07:19 My YouTube Income Breakdown12:49 My Filming Setup13:45 The Emotional Side of Content Creation16:51 Why I Don’t Do Viral Trend Content19:47 Other Income Streams23:14 Final Thoughts & EncouragementInterested in supporting my journey?Check out my Patreon for behind-the-scenes content, monthly meet-ups, and a wonderful community of vintage lovers!http://www.patreon.com/theglambassadorSchedule a Vintage Style & Beauty Session with mechronicallyoverdressed.com/style-sessions#smallcreatorincome #howmuchyoutubepaidme #youtubepartnerprogram #vintagecontentcreator #patreoncreator #youtubetruth #creatorlife #vintagestyle #youtubeincome2025 #youtubeadrevDon't forget to SUBSCRIBE, LIKE AND COMMENT!*****************************************************************Find more information here: https://linktr.ee/TheGlambassadorJoin my Facebook Groups for more fun and inspiration: Vintage Fashion Group - facebook.com/groups/fashionstyleartofaccessorizing1930s & 1940s Authentic Hairstyling Group - facebook.com/groups/30sand40sHairstylingforLadies*****************************************************************Music by Epidemic Sounds epidemicsound.com/referral/z281cb//DISCLAIMER: Links included in this description might be affiliate links.

Vintage Hairnet Hairstyle #vintage #vintagehair #vintagehairtutorial The Glambassador 2025-02-22 | Here’s my weekly vintage wet set brush out and hairstyle using a hairnet. I’ve been using jojoba oil on my hair (mostly the ends) lately to give it a bit more moisture and shine. We picked up this tube of Pento hair cream the last time we were in France. It’s basically Brylcreme, which I normally use, and it works very well. It has just enough hold for a bouncy brushout. #vintagehairstyle #vintagehair #vintagebrushout #vintagewetset
