Home and a Give Away

Hello!

 I have had the loveliest of holidays and have accidentally acquired a rather deep tan...but more about that in the next post!

Today I have a lovely little giveaway for you. I'm afraid this really only applies to readers in the London area or those willing to travel to London. I promise, when (and if) I finally reach the 1,000 follower mark I will hold a giveaway that readers from every far flung corner of the earth can enter!

This giveaway is not just for one lucky reader....no. Nor is it for two lucky readers. It is for four, yes FOUR lucky readers (actually eight if you want to get technical).  I have four pairs of tickets to the fab Vintage Fashion Fair London on Saturday 8th July to give away.

There were 5 pairs of tickets, but I am going to be greedy and keep a pair for myself, so if you do win you must come and say hello to me!

Here is a little bit about the fair so you know what's in store...

How gorgeous is she??!!


The next Vintage Fashion Fair London will take place at Cecil Sharp House, Primrose Hill on 8th July.
As we move into summer, it is the perfect time to refresh your wardrobe with some vintage clothes. Vintage is perfect for those who want something a little different from the clothing available on the high street and can be worn with other vintage pieces or mixed and matched with modern fashions for a unique take on current trends.
As usual the fair will be packed with a selection of clothing, accessories and textiles from a variety of decades including plenty of affordable pieces and some really special designer finds. As we have finally reached summer, there is likely to be a large selection of vintage summer dresses of all types and including quite a few swimsuits from the 40′s onwards.
The Vintage Fashion Fair on 8th July is definitely going to be packed with amazing vintage summer fashions.  Look out for little patterned dresses from the 70′s, all very reasonably priced.  Brightly coloured 60′s shift dresses and 50′s prom dresses with lacy underskirts are always great for summer parties.  Shorts are the thing this summer so put these together with an interesting vintage top or jacket.
You will also find gorgeous vintage fabrics and has a huge range of haberdashery finds.   Buttons, beads, flowers, feathers can be sourced, the list is endless to add something eclectic and unusual to any garment.
If you have a summer wedding to attend the fair is a perfect place to find your outfit.  You will be guaranteed something very special and different. Look out also for lovely vintage hats and fascinators. 
After all that shopping you need to take a break.  Not far to go to the Nice Green Cafe which is just downstairs.  A pretty little vintage eaterie serving a range of delicious snacks and light lunches all with natural ingredients.


If you would like to win a pair of tickets, all I ask of you is to leave a comment below. That's it. Nothing tricky. I will pull the names out of a hat on the 30th June.

Good luck lovelies!
