After a gargantuan eight-hour chazzing adventure with my gorgeous friend Cheryl, I'm well and truly exhausted.
1970's Vintage Wrap (£1.25 Salvation Army), Guardian (£1, Co-operative) |
With nothing on the box this evening it's the night for catching up with my blogging pals and reading the Guardian from cover to cover.
Ooops, nearly forgot to mention that my little hobby has gone and made it to the Top 10 UK Vintage Clothing Blogs! I'm highly honoured to share chart success with some of my very favourite bloggers. Thanks, Cision.
YAY for Vix!! Well done you :)
ReplyDeleteEight hours?! That's mental! When I'm up in Cov, I'll try for the same sort of time. Which charity shops do you mainly shop in? Your local ones?

That vintage wrap looks so intriguing.
ReplyDeleteWhat an EPIC Charity shop spree, can't wait to hear about what you found.
I keep meaning to ask you about a coat I have acquired, I am very unsure what era it is from and what it would be classed as. I may well post it on my blog this week so you can see. You are my ultimate vintage source after all :)xxx
Ooooh, how exciting! Look at you, steaming up the charts! Hooray, so very pleased. :)
ReplyDeleteThe blouse is a UK size 22, by the way. You were VERY far off! xx
Hmmmm, the Guardian cost nearly as much as the vintage wrap. I know which will last lomnger.
ReplyDeleteThe colours on the wrap look lovely, soft and gentle and intriguing.
Well done you!!! that's so deserved.
ReplyDeleteLove your lounging gear.
xx
How very cool!!! Congratulations! :)
ReplyDeletefantastic! your blog is so good and you live but a stone's throw from where I grew up! Love the fact you got the Guardian from the Co-op - respect! Bxxxx
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on making the top 10 Vix! That's amazing - well done. xx

Congratulations Vix, although in fairness I'd have been surprised if you hadn't been on there. Not long now until the vintage car thing... we'll only go on the Sunday as the Saturday bit isn't usually that good. I'll drop you my email addy closer to the time so we can arrange to meet up if you are still coming. x
