THE F – WORD | THE LINDY CHARM SCHOOL FOR GIRLS
Can you tell us a bit about The Lindy Charm School for Girls and how you got started?
The Lindy Charm School For Girls started with a passion, a dolly peg, some wise advise from an elderly lady in a Nursing home I was dancing at and a class full of swing dance students wanting to know how to dress and do their hair and makeup in the style in which they were dancing to…the 1930’s & 1940’s Big Band Era.
With a new love (now my husband), new home, 3 kids, full time work, building a dance school and then the birth of The Lindy Charm School for Girls… Life sure was busy. A roller-coaster of highs and some lows, pitfalls, mistakes and successes.
For a few years it was really about 1 step forward and 2 steps backwards. I look back and wonder just how we managed it all.
Back then (I’m talking around 1996) there was no internet, no YouTube, no online tutorials, blogs etc etc… if you wanted to learn how to style in a particular era it had to be done “old school”.
