- Hello Darlings! In this weeks video I take you guys along with me as I live like a 1950's Housewife for a day! This was meant to be an average Saturday, so not too much housework was done and more outings and leisure was had instead! I know you have all been waiting for this style of video, so I hope you enjoy it! See you next Sunday!
Lots of love,
Sage Xx

I wish opening you curtains to let neighbors know they can come over and talk was still a thing today
Well in my country we call them .My mom never drinks her cofee alone.Either she goes to a neighbor where she meets with other ladies or they all come to our hause.Every day.Is basically comunity building😂
Not for me
@@Lica_the_Pui Then they’d never leave you alone haha
There was no social media. People needed each other more and in person interaction.
Well, I guess it depends on the neighbors & frequency. I f i n a l l y have the neighbors of my dreams (so far). At least half of my previous neighbors all my life have been nuts!
I love that James made a appearance looking like a 50’ s husband. Great job!!
He’s so cute
I knew someone would say that, haha
Me too!!
Yesss
He looks so cute with the moustache
In the 50's my Mum had 5 children aged 5 and under. Her life was one mad rush from 6am to late at night. No time to have a swim, moisturise etc. She made all our clothes, both sewn and knitted except for underwear. Overalls and jackets were made from her parents cast off coats and woolen trousers and jackets.
She was a wonderful Mum, told us wonderful stories while she was breastfeeding the youngest baby and we always had a bedtime story. We had a bath every night. Washing was done once a week by boiling up the copper. It was wonderful when she got an electric wringer washing machine. Dad left for work at 6.30a and got home at 5.30p. Dinner was on the table bang on 6pm.
She was amazing!
So should she have not shown swimming and swiping a quick dab of olay on her face?
You didn't have a Mom, Lynda, you had a super hero! She sounds like such an amazing person. The 50s was definitely a lot harder on people than is some times portrayed. My own grandmother had her first two children in the 50s and would to on to raise nine more throughout her life! Their strength is unmatched.
My mother also was a superhero! She had the first 5 of her children during the fifties. Since we moved to a different state and my father was getting started in his own business, my mother worked full time outside the house for about a year. My grandmother watched us.
@@jclancy8246 I did not even remotely suggest that in my comment. What a strange reply to my recollections of my mother in the 50's!
Well it is so true. Any of these "50's housewife" videos that don't include children are complete fantasies. This would have been your day for maybe a year after your wedding...
Ever since your, " Living the life of 50's Housewife " first came out...I fell secretly in love all over again. What a classic time of so many changes of beautiful....My heart still lives there❤
Same, I love the 1950s aesthetic, my heart will always love that style 🤍
Absolutely. ❤️❤️
So I found these videos yesterday and apparently it was just the thing to kick-start my executive function! Since then I’ve showered, done two loads of laundry, kept the dishes clean, and even made eggs! I have ADHD, so basic household chores are really hard for me, so this has been super helpful! Sometimes you just gotta dress up and pretend you’re a 1950’s housewife to get stuff done :)
LOL wait i know this is 2 years later but I also have ADHD and had literally the same exact experience (more so w the week of 1950s housewife video) 😂 I think it’s because it made cleaning feel like a game almost and tricked my brain into wanting to do it
@@lizzypolishan9915 Ditto here! I also love watching the old black and white PSA from the 40s, 50s on personal care, family, etc. I think deep inside we all long for what we believe to be simpler rimes. Carry on fellow ADD/ADHDers!!
I know I'm a few years behind, but same here! I feel like I've been more productive in the few months since I found Sage's channel than I have been in years! It's almost like it's helped rewire my ADHD brain and I love it!
I am amazed at how much of a housewife’s day is consumed by food prep. That is a big breakfast, had tea, then she went grocery shopping, then made lunch, then made lunch, then had tea and a cookie, then made dinner, dishes etc. it’s the entire day!
I'm a home maker and i try telling people who don't cook at all this and they think I'm joking
@@terrisserose please tell me how you don’t cook. I would really like to do less if it. I like cooking but I am doing it and eating all day. Today I have made my kids scrambled eggs, bagels, Raman noodles and a hot dog just for lunch. Nothing is hard it’s just time consuming to make all these individual things all the time.
@@fourleaf8055 i cook 3 sometimes 4 meals a day!
My kids just keep insisting on eating, it’s such a drag. 😂
@@fourleaf8055 you either have the time to prep/cook or you have the money to eat out /order to go. Unfortunately there's not a third option! 😅
Funny story. You inspired me to try Ponds Cold Cream. It has been around for so long, so I assumed it must be good. And it IS! I look forward to it every evening. One time my dad saw it on my bathroom counter and said "Hey, my mom and grandma used this." So I talked to my grandma about it and she said even HER grandma used it. It was so fun learning about this simply from a cream inspired from your channel! Love your videos!!
Aw that is so amazing that your grandma and her grandma even used it!! Thank you so much for sharing! 💕❤️🥰
Me too! The Ponds cream makes my skin look like it’s had a mini facial and it’s soo economical. Love your videos 🎞📺✨
My mother has always used Pond’s.
I’m 57 and was sooo excited when I found some on Amazon
I bought 4 big jars incase they run out😂🇬🇧
I used to adore using Ponds Cold Cream. It made me feel so vintage. :)
Every time I watch these videos, they’re super comforting and always remind me how simple and beautiful life could be, it’s like a breath of fresh air. 🥰
Hi💐life use to be this way!! I read your comment 🎀
Yes indeed. I am born and raised in New York city- everyone here is always in such a rush to do everything.
I wish everyone, myself included, would just slow down a bit.
How life could be is right. Most women started having babies within the first year of marriage and that changed everything. The honeymoon was over when the woman became a mother, maybe even before then. Her routine changed drastically. Women who had only 1,2, or 3 children had the most likely change of having a 'breath of fresh air' married life. Any more than that, and it's all over, sweetie. No matter how much you love your offspring, they are a LOT of work.
@@conniewojahn6445 yes it is over!!
Life was like that. Now ppl are scared masked up 🐑
I’m so glad I stumbled upon your channel. So much of this I could imagine my mum doing in her early twenties. She was a simple homemaker who kept an immaculate house for her farmer husband and five daughters, a simple cook of beautiful, tasty food and she was always well dressed. I grew up smelling her Oil of Olay (originally Ulan) moisturiser and this is what I use today, age 57. I remember Ponds cold cream (we moisturised our sunburn shoulders with it). Never a day went by without made beds, laundry was done in a single day, once a week and dishes washed after every meal, never left until the morning! I can remember mum sighing with relief when she took off her girdle, much like me whipping off my bras when I get home now 😂
Your food looks delicious and true to the times. I just love this! ☺️
Thank you for sharing your beautiful experience!
I’ve been a stay at home mom/housewife for 18 years, and your Mother is exactly the type of woman I’ve tried to model myself, and lifestyle after!
I never made a good working/corporate mom/wife…. My ADHD lets me be EXCELLENT and consistent at what I enjoy, but if I don’t enjoy it, I’m trash at it. 😂
That said, homemaking, cooking, taking care of the babies/people I love, decorating our home, working the finances/investments, chores, all those types of things are truly what I enjoy… and when I couldn’t be solely focused on them, my heart and longed to.
Props to my husband and best, best friend, for being an exceptional provider, who also believes in (and desired) this lifestyle….
We catch flack here and there, for God knows what reason (it’s “old fashioned”, I guess), but in my opinion, if it’s successful, and everyone is happy, it’s the PERFECT dynamic for you….
I mean, I’m 38 and my home will be paid off this year! I would have never had the focus in the corporate world to pay off a home, let alone save up and buy vehicles, toys, etc cash….. we’ve not been wealthy by any means, but we pinched and scraped to be sure we were out of debt fast. Hubby is always very concerned about making sure we are set up in such a way that if he wasn’t here, I could easily make ends meet. Obviously life insurance is a great modern benefit, but even without, we have almost no bills (besides utilities and food and such), after we make the last few house payments this year…..
I hope (in my lifetime) to see the media/public influencers encourage couples (who want to) to fix what’s broke, instead of throwing it away….. in the long run, the value and outcome are absolutely priceless.
Society has progressed in many ways over time, but I believe we’ve also regressed in many ways…
I LOVE your videos. I put them on sometimes while I'm washing the dishes. I'm a stay at home mom right now and I feel weirdly seen when I watch your videos, like someone knows my life and the importance of my work.
You're awesome, keep it up!
And now we need to do the same things and WORK. Omg life is so exhausting. I feel a little bit scammed by society, we all need shorter working hours (men & women) to enjoy our house and family... is not a bad thing! It is true life.
I agree ..this hit the nail on the head
Alicia, I agree with you. Watching these videos shows us how a simpler, slower life really can be enjoyable (without all the things we think we need today). I had to smile when she got out the carpet sweeper as I use this too & prefer it to a noisy vacuum cleaner. I also do dishwashing by hand & actually like a sinkfull of hot sudsy water & letting everything dry in the dish rack. Our dishwasher broke last year & we never bothered to replace it!
I agree. Personally, I think in many ways feminism (2nd wave and on) is to blame for this. Feminism didn’t “free” women from homemaking, childcare, the kitchen etc, it just put one extra burden on us; working. So now instead of being a “slave” to our husbands/family, we’re “slaves” to our families still AND a corporation and our bosses who couldn’t care less about us. I would much rather be a “slave” to the man whom is in love with me and our little ones. I think the choice to do either is awesome as not every woman has that desire. But the way society and the economy is set up today, most women are forced to work whether they want to or not.
@@lyssadobbins7209 I understand your frustration Lyssa but we need feminist to defend our rights. I feel more scammed by work life balance and the salary women have, because we are not appreciated as men in workforce. I don't think that there are nothing bad in new wave of feminism, I just want to work less or to be appreciated as a housewife like in the past. Now is all work work production...money. it's jus t not human for anybody.
Exactly!! My sister works full time and has three children to take care of after work. She has no time to herself. :(
I remember my Grandma always setting the table like this for every meal. When I stayed with them in my 20s we would prepare all our meals and set the table with linens and all the condiments. Every day we had afternoon coffee and a biscuit.
Hello dear
How are you doing today?
Yay my faves!!!that pink nightgown is sooo pretty! Would love a “day in the life of a 50’s housewife” video once a month!
I agree! I can't get enough! More please!
Yes!
Thank you for taking the time to make such beautifully assembled, dynamic and polished videos. ❤️
You have encouraged me to start looking back at the past generations with a new degree of appreciation! Your short films are an inspiration, and I have started to cook more from scratch, implement a routine and, so far, I am loving this new season of my young adult life. You embody so much grace, dignity and joy it's infectious!
Aw that means so much, thank you! 🥰💕💫
I truly live my life this way each and everyday, except I have two boys. There is a sense of freedom when you live this way and not have social media. I have no regrets. Love all your video's you post!
It’s truly a blessing that you can afford not to work
That's excellent! I love there are people like you, and we need more. We're all turning into zombies (says the girl staring at YT.... Better get going😂)✌
You saw this on RUclips?
@@bobbymenon4057 I was thinking the same thing!
@@zgreen8652 or you can just cut back on expenses. You only need one income if you're wise about where and how you live
Showed your videos to my mom (who was a 70's housewife) and she was delighted, since this was a routine she was very familiar with, passed down from her own mother to her. She only had me, but my grandmother did all this with 4 kids...wow.
Sage I have to say everyone enjoyed your vintage housewife video so much that we want to see mostly vintage videos from you like Cooking, clothes, etc.... we are hungry for that stuff since we are modern day housewives and need enjoyment on RUclips and you provide it darling ❤️❤️ give us that please! You provide what we housewives strife to be daily for our husband and children. It’s not a joke.
i’m with you
Aww Sage you are adorable. My husband and I had to laugh when you dialed the phone without first picking up the receiver that made our day. lol
LOL me too!
I've also noticed that!! My parents still have one of those in the backyard kitchen, serves as an extension.
Same here! ♡
Lol. She would not have got through to anyone but the dialling tone lol. X
Exactly. Being a 70s baby, I was chuckling. You’re not calling ANYONE without first picking up the receiver. 😂
She did not need to go the extra mile with the authentic decor and background music but she did and that is why I love her so much ✨
Also can we please make memes of that Lucy bit? The potential is limitless
I noticed your username was really familiar and then realized I'm following your pinterest 😂
@@MidCentury43 I love your Googietastic board
@@lambgaming1347 Youre @shreksolitaire, right?
@@MidCentury43 yes lol
I love watching these types of time warp videos to help motivate myself to function on a higher level.
Edit: James dresses like my dad, and shares his name lol.
This is so sweet. Being born in the 60s, I saw some of this. I remember helping my mom hang wash out on the line. We only had a washing machine (an automatic, thank heavens) and no dryer. We had to hang wash in the basement in the winter. Chicago winters freeze the damp wash before it dries. My friends and I used to run through the hung up sheets, in the yard or in the basement and scream and laugh.
My mom also had a jar of Ponds Cold Cream on her dresser. It had a pink top with three women with their heads together, a brunette, a red head and a blonde. My husband and I have a "Vintage Medicine cabinet" with glass over it in our downstairs bathroom. It has things you would have found in an old time bathroom and I even found an empty jar of Pond's Cold Cream with the three women's faces on the lid! It was a great find. (We did this before EBay, too.)
Thank you, Sage. I'm enjoying your videos and your sunny personality so much!
I never met my great grandmother, these videos make me feel like I'm getting a glimpse into what life may have been like for her.
Awww 🥰. I met mine. She died when I was 12. She was born in 1898. I heard a lot of stories about Indians, amd her one room schoolhouse.
I met one of my great grandmothers, but she died when I was a baby (she was 83) so I don’t remember her. These videos are quite interesting and are a reminder of how different life was back then.
This video was so cozy and wholesome. I tell my husband all the time I wish we lived in the 50s 🥰
Very comforting and love the clothes, I love anything back in the days or vintage, just love it!!!!
This makes me think I might need a carpet sweeper 😂 also your "it's winter so it's cold before I go in the outdoor pool" scene was so funny! Outdoor pools here are drained and not touched from September through May, at the earliest 🥲
I don’t understand people who give thumbs down to light hearted and fun entertainment like this.
It's the average life for a white woman in the 50s 🙃 what's there to like? The privilege?
@@jadopotato64 hahahahahahahaha.
They're bitter Debbie downers
@@jadopotato64 Oh, Jade... so sorry that you are so sad and bitter. I hope life gets a little better for you.
@@jadopotato64 It wasn't just white women who lived this way!!
I started using Cold Cream because of you, and it’s been amazing for my skin! No one in my family that I’ve known used it when I was growing up, and it’s honestly the first cleanser I’ve used that didn’t make my skin red.
I thought I was the only woman that danced while doing dishes! Yay!!!
Am I the only one who expected Sage to do fortnite dances
I absolutely love this, I love the 40s and 50s, the class and beauty but also the pride one had in appearance and home! Husband doesn’t quite understand my obsession haha. Love from a woman across the way in NZ
This is actually my life as a 2021 housewife lol. Loved the video ☺️
Same, except I have chickens to tend to 😆
Same, plus 4 kids ❤️
Yesssss
I’m a SAHM but just get constant criticism from my working boyfriend and it’s ruined what I know could have been a few lovely years 🥲.
@@mutoidliz2320 sorry to hear that your mate doesn't understand his role as 'provider'.
You bring back so many happy memories of a simpler time. I can still smell the cold cream my grandmother used everyday. I thought that you two would sit down to TV dinners. My mother cooked all the time, so eating out or splurging on a TV dinner was special. Love your vintage bathing suit and hat, pj’s and cosmetics collection! You two are cute, cute, cute! 🥰👡🕶👛💕
16 minutes of pure joy. I can't stop thinking about that sandwich (yum!)
I loved this so much!!! Sage, you are an Angel! Please do more videos like this! I don’t know why it’s so relaxing to have the vintage music playing while you make meals, vacuum, and go grocery shopping but I love seeing these “DITL” videos! I’m just amazed at the extra length you go to, like the magazines, the rotary phone, etc. I adored seeing you in the headscarf! And your dance moves make me want to clean my house in high spirits while listening to Benny Goodman!
James looks so dashing, you’d better watch out! 😅
I just love this video. And love that old rotary phone. The last time I had one was when I was a teenager in the 1980s.
I love the old phone. Did you notice she dialed it before picking up the receiver? 😄
I was so excited to see a rotary telephone that I didn’t notice that Sage dialed the phone, then picked up the receiver. I watched that part again.
@@karin0963 yes! I was just about to comment - "learn how to use a rotary phone!" - that's ok. my kids don't know either.
I am in my mid 20’s, I keep a landline telephone from our province’s 1st telephone company, which still supports pulse dialling. So when I call people I like to tell them I called them on a phone that is 50+ years old. Can’t understand how a phone that old works. Lol.
Cannot miss when someone calls my house. Have 2 pulse and 1 touch tone desk phones with the bell ringers. Lol
I'm old enough to have used one of those rotary dial phones and I have to tell you that they didn't work unless you picked up the receiver before dialling LOL. Obviously just a prop though in this video! Beautifully made, Sage!
I was looking for this comment 😂
Because of your smile, you make life more beautiful. I just wanted to say... ⚘THANK YOU!😊
You are the cutest couple on the internet.
I would have loved to have been a housewife in the 50's. I love your videos!!! My sister is in her 50's and still uses Oil of Olay and her skin looks amazing. I use the Pond's moisturizer. I love how the Pond's products feel on my skin. It's summer here in the States, but as soon as it starts getting cooler in the fall, roast dinners are going to be back in full swing here. Gravy is the best! Your meals look delicious! Thank you for sharing! I love your channel!!!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Sage, for recreating this beautiful time in history. I dream of living in the 1950s, when woman were true ladies, families were fully intact, and morals stood strong. Godbless you for honoring the wonderful women of yesteryear.❤️
Oh and what is wrong with true ladies of 2021 joleen :)
Amen
Ha, enjoyed that. Very Betty from Mad Men
i love your channel
@@melodykuromibebbies2138 Me, too!
Your channel rocks! Who’s the one that says “That’s all” at the end of the videos?
Love your house. It’s the epitome of 1959s nostalgia
So many comments banging on about the phone mistake - does no one else read others' comments before posting? I thought your video was wonderful, Sage. Enjoyed every minute 🤗
Not all of them. There are too many.
I love routines inspired by decades past ❤️ Thank you girl 👌😗
Thank you for reminding me how beautiful and simple life can be.🧡 I’m going to be trying your face routine.☺️
I hate wearing hair curlers
ahhh ❤️ just made my day! Seriously the sweetest most cheerful videos to watch 😌
Aw thank you!! 💕🥰
Girlie you need to sharpen your knives! Making me so nervous! Love the content, you’re so cute and I wish more people took such care with their daily care of themselves, their home, and their family
What a peaceful life! Can we bring this lifestyle back??
No
Yes. I think a lot are trying to live a simpler lifestyle.
It was not this peaceful for many.
@@meganf7087 how do you know that?
@@user-vg8ez9cu6u Segregation, the massive increase of housewives going on anti depressants because the didn’t feel fulfilled with their lives, etc.
This is a wonderful video to show the real side of a 50’s housewife. Thank you for this. And please keep them coming I love it
Simplicity, beauty, and joy! Well done!
Oh Sage,
I'm old and remember when we used those old phones. You have to pick up the handset Before you dial the number, lol. You are so funny and sweet. I love your show.
I love these videos, but when she did that, I felt SO OLD. 😂 ⚰️
It did make me realize something else though… if you go further back to the candlestick type phone, it would probably make more sense to a young person because you just picked it up and asked the operator to connect you. It’s like we have come full circle but instead of operator, we call her Siri, Alexa etc.
@@mags9024
Giiiirl, that's nothing, I came across a horrible comment by a young person that said "This song sounds like from the 1900s" I felt so ooooold. 😠
@@mags9024 pretty sure she did it with the handle on bc it is easier to film that way, as you can see from the cut & angle change 🙃
Ponds Cold Cream is the BEST. I use it every day and I've not found any other product that works as well!
Me too! My daughter uses it as well.
Yes! Also it makes a great moisturizing mask when my dry skin is extra dry.
i used to use it for a year then I stopped and switched to Lush but Lush is so expensive and I was thinking about going back to Ponds, but are the ingredients truly safe in it?
@@dahlia700 They are.
Everything about you, your life is so comforting, beautiful and warm! Thank you so much for sharing it Sage. ❤️❤️❤️
I feel as if this is the most authentic 1950s housewife RUclips video there is. Your house still looks like a house would back then. Plus James looks like a 1950s husband.
I just came to this video after watching a scary/freaky one about the paranormal, in hopes of making me happy & forget about how scared I was 😰 lol and it worked, your energy & vibes made me feel so much better. Your whole personality is just too adorable! 😄 love your videos! 💖
Dang, you got some beautiful markets there! I haven’t seen a real butcher since I was a kid! You’re very fortunate to have stores like that to shop from! Love your videos and it brings back a lot of memories for me from the 50s!👍
Cute video!
Gotta take the reciever off the phone before dialing😁 Absolutely love the pool shot. Beautiful outdoor heated pool! In your wintertime no less!
This is the most precious channel I have ever come randomly come across and she is an absolute peach. So glad I found this, all of her videos are absolutely so soothing and just a pleasure to watch!
There is something so calming about your voice and videos that even if I’m stressed out at work like today I feel like you calm me right down and I thank you for it :)
I have said for years that I was born in the wrong decade. I should have been and adult housewife of the 1950’s. It is totally up my alley and my love! Seeing your videos is a breath of fresh air. I love that you dance around to the music-I do that as well and I adore music from the 50’s. I am even ordering a new 1950’s swing dress to wear to an upcoming wedding.
I remember them black phones had to take handle off before you dialed.
I just asked my mom who was born in 1959, cuz I was like I don't think that's right!
I was gonna say lol
I was born in the 70’s and we had a roll a dial phone and I remember that you have to pick up the phone before dialling 🙂
Yes. At least here in the United States you have to pick up the phone receiver before you dial on a rotary phone. Could be different in Australia.
90s kid u had to pick up the phone then dial
"it's winter here in Australia, so it's absolutely freezing" as she dances around in a bathing suit...
**Laughs in New England**
*laughs with you in Midwestern*
@@samanthab3292 The struggle is real!
Your videos are so refreshing !
Watching from France 🇫🇷
Dialing the phone before picking up the receiver gave me a chuckle and put a smile on my face. My mom still had our old, yellow rotary phone on her kitchen wall until the day she passed, 12 years ago.
I’ve never clicked so fast in my life. Been waiting for one fo these 😊
My favorite part is when you watched “I love Lucy”! It’s my favorite show!!
Keep making the great videos!
It's so lovely 💕💕 ididn't want it to end
I’ve been waiting for this for ages
So excited to see this pop up in my notifications. I love these type of videos. When you walk into the kitchen, I thought how tall the door looked next to you, then realized how high the door knob is placed. 😅 Thank you!
Hi Sage!
That was just lovely and so naturally...
I love it. 🥰 And You, like always, look so beautiful!😊
Lots of love Sweetie ❣ I can't wait for the next video...😁
Sage,I love a bed jacket. And I actually have my late mother's, it's way too small for me,but I've kept it as a momento of course . Its baby pink satin. I love that your husband was willing to play along,too cute. That was alot of fun seeing you out and about shopping. Great video . Thank you so much sweetie ❤💞❤👗
When I watch your enjoyable videos, I always have to make a list of things I need to learn about the era where my soul dwells so I can live the life in which I feel most at peace. Thank you for this channel! Very lovely and inspiring! 🦋🌹
Lovely video. That outdoor pool swim in the winter is the dream!
Im 14 and one of my favourite era’s is the 40’s and 50’s would give anything to turn back time to a more simple time
I absolutely love your videos! The style, the music, everything! Thank you!💕💕
Hello Nicole
How are you doing today?
Wow this is exactly my day minus the pool 😵💫 people always wonder how am I busy all day if I don’t work lol
Loved this video. Love the simplicity of this time and I strive to incorporate more of that in my life.
Recently discovered your channel and I've been so obsessed 😊! Absolutely love these routines. Such peaceful living
Aw thank you so much! ☺️💞
Absolutely love this! So pure and wholesome ❤️ Thank you for taking the time to include such details. Everyone, I'm pretty sure this lady knows how to use a phone! She probably didn't want to accidentally call someone by lifting receiver first x
It had been a stressful day, and I loved watching your videos. It’s so good to find you.
I love all your videos. I love to remember all the stories my grandmother told me about the 50s. I still save your first video. I love it ❤💕
My favorite episode of I love Lucy! I love your channel. I use cold cream too, my grandma taught me this. This reminds me of her, my mother also had a swim cap like that, I remember the distinctive smell of it. I was so little, but I still remember the smell. I roll my hair sometime just like this, such a classy, neat look. I’m 51 and I so appreciate your channel.
I had this video in my queue waiting for my daughter's nap to watch it 🤣❤ I could seriously watch you do these weekly if I could!! 💕
I just have to say that red lipstick really suits you!
Oh how I loved this!! I think your housecoat and nightgown are simply adorable. I love that it was a leisurely day. Sometimes those are the best. James is looking very dapper in this video as well. The out takes at the end are simply the best tho. So charming and always bring out a giggle and smile in me! In a lot of ways I feel like I live the life of a 50's housewife, without the clothes. lol. I chose to stay home after my daughter was born...and she's now quite older so I don't have much of an excuse, but I love staying home and taking care of our beautiful house and so while my husband and I can afford it we're going for it. I do say I loved hearing of how my grandma spent her days when she was raising her children through the 50's, and it just inspired me to want to be like her. To me she was the most intelligent, sweet, wonderful woman around and tho she's been gone a while I miss her every day. Thank you Sage, for reminding me of an era of good ol days. :)
I haven't ironed a piece of of clothing in years...
I’ve never ironed anything, even though my vintage apartment has an ironing board.
Our iron has been broken for three years...can't afford a new one and I don't miss ironing at all
I iron my husband’s shirts every week and even iron some of my tops. Such a lovely ritual.
Nor have I, not since I worked at a supermarket in high school that required a very strict dress code. Now I am allowed to wear jeans and a company polo to work. Can’t say I miss the restrictive khakis and white blouse too much.
I do
Every single day
How do u manage then!
I love your videos!
It’s summer here in the U.S and I am missing fall and winter so much!
My grandma always had ponds cold cream and Olay pink on her sink❤ great memories I can almost smell it!
Omg I have that exact same weet-bix tin that my mum gave to me! I absolutely adore it :D
I adore you Sage! These 'Day in the Life' videos are my favourite content from you. Looking forward to your next video - they bring me so much joy 😊❤️🌻
I love your videos & how enthusiastic you are!! It makes me feel like I've stepped back in time & I picture my grandma doing some of these thing's! T.y 🥰❤
I feel so happy that I finally get to watch an Aussie creator who makes videos about vintage stuff! Thank you for making these videos :D
I love your videos! Thank you for taking time to make them authentic! Makes me long for simpler times or a time machine.
I don't know if it's different in Australia but where I'm from, we used to have to pick up the receiver before dialing the phone number
I grew up in the 50s in the USA and we had to pick the receiver up before dialing the number. Those phones lasted Forever! 😊
In Australia here we also had to pick up the hand piece first before dialing.
Pretty sure she did it that way so she could show the phone dialing without actually phoning anyone lol.
Could also be a remake of an old phone, not an original. So it may not operate 💯 like the original
Maybe Sage never had a landline phone.
Yay, I am so happy. This was perfect to wake up to for a Sunday morning. I love, love these videos! You do such an amazing job. 😁
The outtakes at the end were priceless 😂 brings you back to 2021.
4:38 this makes me sigh ☺️ it's sweet how he supports the way she perpares breakfast and old fashioned ways of living, for instance simply sitting down together and having breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Noone seems to do that anymore, some teens eat in their rooms, parents eat on the couch these days. But this is lovely 😍
I'm in LOVE with James' mustache!!! Good man 🙂
These videos are beautiful I clean everyday along side your '50s week' video it's the perfect accompaniment and inspiration. Im very envious of your grocery stores, I wish we had some in walking distance, I find I can't do fresh shopping each day here as it takes up too much of my day, but I should love to be able to. I also adore my carpet sweeper so it made me very happy to see yours. Thank you so much for making me feel as though I have a vintage neighbour. My own little 1940s bubble is very small ❤️
Yaayy finally a video like this again i love the everyday life videos
Wonderful video, I just love how you managed to keep all the little details on par with the 1950s as well. So beautifully done. Much love from South Africa.
dialling before picking up the receiver was defo the best bit :-)
