Hi my dear-oh I'm in love with your mink brooch and your 70s maxi skirt, how totally gorgeous!! Just read we made the top ten blogs below, you're no surprise at all, but am amazed I'm in considering I don't blog that often anymore. Very well done to you, thoroughly deserved xx
ReplyDeleteI may have just let out an audible "ooooh" at the sight of that skirt. It's gorgeous! They knew how to make interesting prints back then didn't they?
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely brooch. Envy your finds always!!! :)
ReplyDeleteSame here with that skirt; its WOW! Love love love it!

That hat is awesome! And it looks fabulous on you. I've been on a quest for the perfect black floppy hat.
ReplyDeleteWow...amazing finds as always...love the skirt x
ReplyDeleteFabulous finds...all of them but I think I feel a particular pull towards the brooch and the purse. Lovely, Vix!

Stunning maxi dress! Such bargains you found too! As I always say - nothing where I live is so cheap! Charity shops are almost like boutiques, it's stupid!

I love hats and am so lookingforward to getting my winter ones out in the next few weeks. The brooch is so quirky and the bag is obviously gorgeous x
ReplyDeleteI love it all! My mum had one of those brooches. Those patterns are great! xxx
ReplyDeleteThat skirt is beautiful! I went for a trawl in some trendy "vintage" shops in London the other day and nothing I saw came close to the amazing you've managed to pull out of charity shops for a small fraction of the prices they were asking.
ReplyDeletethe flounce on that skirt hits just right. i am loving the annie hall hat! over the top. you have a laser eye for amazing finds. i want to go shopping with you. i would be buying the 60's jackie dresses. lets go.

Oooh look at that skirt!! Its a beauty.
ReplyDeleteDear Vix,
ReplyDeleteI love the maxi dress the print looks amazing.
The skirt is totally divine and a whopper of a bargain at a mere quid; I'll be looking forward to that being incorporated in a future outfit.
I like to snap up vintage dressmaking patterns too but I am too lazy to actually use them...I just look at the pictures...shockingly lame I know!
As for the hat, it's perfect and as far as I am concerned a chick can never have too many hats!
...xXx
Not that I get out much--but I've never seen a mink brooch before. It is quite stunning! The print on the wrap skirt is so exotic...and the hat is great on you. (I'm going up to my closet to check to see if I don't have a very similar hat - just in a bone/beige color....)
ReplyDeleteWhat fab finds love the patterns xx
ReplyDeleteGlad you and your friend had a great day of chazzing. Gorgeous maxi. Fabulous finds. My gran gave me a brooch kinda like that, I wonder what ever happened to it. x
ReplyDeleteOhh!! The skirt is beautiful, and the lady doesn't look unlike you!!

Nice finds. The mink brooch is fantastic, have never seen one before.
ReplyDeleteSome beautiful buys, that Kelly bag is amazing. Of course! ;)
ReplyDeleteLove the mink brooch, and that hat looks fab on.

i am jealous of such incredible sh finds! and i am in love with your hat... <3 awesome!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite is that skirt - what an incredible print!
ReplyDeleteOh. My. God. Your finds are utterly gorgeous - I'm salivating!! Maybe I'm going through no-shopping withdrawls? You've put your bits and pieces together in stunning fashion as usual!
ReplyDeleteI adore that skirt! So gorgeous! The whole look is super boho, lovely, Vix! XX!
ReplyDeleteI love your waistcoat, such an interesting choice. I love the coloured detailing.
ReplyDeleteI am so excited to see some of your finds from your spree…
The mink brooch and dressmaking patterns are my favourites.
I always keep meaning to lookout for dressmaking patterns on my travels, I would just love to have one on display or maybe incorporate them into my scrapbooks. God forbid actually trying to make a dress xxx
The brooch, hat and skirt are my favourite items in this icture-perfect post, but I must confess that the waistcoat is very fetching indeed. To conclude, you look in very good form. XOXO
ReplyDeleteDear Vix, that's a wonderful print and the mink brooch and Kelly bag are fantastic! xx
ReplyDeleteI love that skirt soooo much !!!
ReplyDeleteHow gorgeous :)
I love this outfit ... and the skirt you bought is beautiful .. can't wait to see you wearing it!
ReplyDeleteSal xXx
Love that hat. Those dress making patterns look fab, I always see loads of them in the charity shops, but have no idea where to start with them!
ReplyDeleteThat's one very modern looking hat. xx
ReplyDeletethat skirt with the faces is incredible!!
