Honey I am a mother of 5 children. Trust me I know how hard it is to come up wtih pinup attire on a budget & being a momma. Check out thrift stores, yard sales, estates sales, etc. Sometimes you can find somes steals on ebay but then you have to pay shipping and the fees. So I am debating their worth. There is also a post on here somewhere with some websites that you can get pinup attire.

One of my head that offers layaway and is affordable is www.sydneysvintageclothing.com She is a sweetheart and prices things great. Also check out Etsy. Look up Tiddlywink. She is on PL as well and a absolute doll. I hope this helps you out some hon.

I make post of my period/goth clothes. I'm a big girl and plus vintage is hard to find and often not attractive. 

I've gotten pretty good at it and I can usually futz around and come up with a respectable version of something I see. 

 

I also think that pinup isn't about spending the most money.  A man's dress shirt, a bathrobe, knee socks, a satin sheet, a bath towel, an apron...be creative. Most classic pinup looks can be replicated with things you already have around the house. 

 

Please don't be discouraged

^ What Eden said! There's tons of ways to do pinup on a shoestring budget. Perhaps do a shoot in a bathtub where fron the neck down you're covered up with bubbles? Then the only thing you'll have to worry about is having good hair and makeup : D.

 

 Once your name is out there again, I'm sure companies will go out of their way to collaborate with you. Best of luck with everything. You have a good look and I'm sure your new work will be great.

totally agree!  i have a 4 y/o as well.  my money goes on her most of the time.  and i know a lot of sites require constant new submissions.  but don't stress yourself.  i'm in definite need of a new shoot!  but we're great moms and almost anything can be used for a shoot.  implied nudity can work great.  like, Goldmine mentioned bubbles. sit down with some paper and jot down fun ideas and themes.

While I have retro styled clothing, I don't really have hot, sultry, pinup pieces. I'm on the lookout now but what I plan to do is what I do when I shop at thrift stores. What helps me is to write down 3 things I wanna focus on while out at thrift stores - otherwise I get a little overwhelmed! One day it might be a polka top blouse, faux pearl necklace, and a pair of gloves. Another day it might be a simple black pencil skirt, nylons, and a Bakelite jewelry item. You may find all three items, you might find just one! You just gotta get a little creative like Eden said and most importantly, have fun :)
Im in a hurry but I read all the comments so far and I thank all of you. I go to thrift stores all the time but making a list of certain items I need I have not done. Usally its a mile long list I think narrowing it down will help a lot..I will also consider checking the websites you all have listed thank you so much..
