Vivienne Westwood buys

So the Monday just gone was my 23rd Birthday. Me and Mike went to Selfridges the Saturday before to make the most of the 20% off offer which they were doing. We went straight over to the Vivienne Westwood section where I picked up a beautiful clasp bag perfect for dinner dates and special occasions. I had wanted this bag for quite a while so it was the perfect opportunity to buy it, plus we had a gift card as well so it turned out to be quite the bargain.
After Selfridges we headed over to the Vivienne Westwood store on Conduit Street and I picked up this black t-shirt. It's very simple but is one of those pieces where I can pair up with anything. The placing of the orb in the centre is perfect as well. It's a great piece and fits perfectly.
Did anyone else make the most of the 10% and 20% off in Selfridges?

Boot sale and charity shop haul

It's been a while since I've done a boot sale/charity shop haul post, so I present to you a couple of items from one of my latest hauls. And yes, I am attempting to go to boot sales over winter, although I don't really to expect to find much. And unfortunately for Mike he won't be getting any lie-ins just yet.

This nightie dress was originally down to almost my ankles. I got it shortened and it is now one of my favourite dresses. I feel like a doll whenever I wear it. It cost me £1.50.

This nightie was also almost down to my ankles, got it shortened and voilà. It cost me around £2 or so from a charity shop.

Another dress which I got shortened (Are you seeing a pattern here?). It has a sailor/tennis girl theme to it which is quite contrasting. I love the collar though. It cost £1.50 from a boot sale.

And finally, I bought this crazy jumper from an indoor boot sale for £3.00. I think it was an impulse buy as I was drawn in by the sleeves. Haven't had a chance to wear it yet so I'm not sure if it's a keeper yet lol.

Anyone else going to attempt to go to any winter boot sales?

Monica's Vintage Fair- 10th November 2012

So last Saturday me and Julia sold at Monica's Vintage Fair. We've already sold at this event before, but this time round it was held in a much bigger venue which was great. The turnover was amazing as well. We can't wait till the next event! For those who are interested here is a link to our stalls page (just click on the photo below). We sell at various fairs around the country so if there is a vintage fair in your area please let us know as we'd love to sell at new places!

Monica's Vintage Fair

Me and Julia (Sunday's Girl) will be making a return to Monica's Vintage Fair this coming Saturday in Gravesend in Kent. We're super excited and have been busy bee's preparing everything for it!

Here is the flyer for it, spread the word and hope to see some of you there :)

Pumpkin

I'd like you all to meet the new member of the family...Pumpkin the tiny pomeranian.

Longchamp at a boot sale

Yup, you read that right. I got a genuine Longchamp bag at a boot sale. The girl wanted £5 but I managed to get it for £4. Amazing price, and the weird thing is that I was thinking about purchasing a Longchamp bag recently as I received a giftcard for Selfridges. Very strange. Anyway, this bag is a really great size, plenty of room for all my stuff and great for when you are in a rush and need to quickly stuff all your possessions in a bag and go! Also, a big THANK YOU to all those who have congratulated me :) It really means alot.

Our wedding

Sorry for the long break inbetween posts. I've been so busy changing my surname and settling into being a 'Mrs'. Here are some photos from the day both taken on digital and film. Our wedding theme was pastel and shabby chic by the beach. We got married in a beautiful old house in Whitstable overlooking the beach. We were extremely lucky that day as the weather was lovely and no rain which is a huge plus as we got married on the outside porch of the house. We decorated the house in handmade bunting, milk bottles with pastel hydrangeas, pom poms, little windmills, and seaside themed items. For the food we did an afternoon tea style theme with old cups and saucers and pretty vintage plates which we collected from various boot sales. We made handmade signs which we also painted ourselves and added ribbon. We stayed the night in Whitstable and during the evening we got some chips and sat on the beach and watched the sunset which was beautiful. I had such a wonderful time :) I can't believe that after 7 and a half years of being with Mike (I met him when I was 15 and he was 17) that we are finally married!
