A vintage affair

Feeling super thrifty this month even high street clothing is a little out of price range this weekend I went in search of a bargin or two. I love a bit second hand especially as now its known as vintage. First stop was Portebella a complete mix if different stalls, from new designers to carboot still stalls the best plan is to head to the ones who dont know waht their selling. I ended up uming and arring over a chanel scarfs that I got  for £4, two tops for a fiver each. Meanwhile my best mate got two amzing tunictops for £2!

Next stop was Brick lane one of the most exciting places to shop, my favourite discovery of the day was the Vintage emporium cafe and shop l;ovely hot cholocate and fab vintage although on the pricey side. The indoor market is a great place to grab a bargin £6 for an octopus necklace. While shopping you will never guess who I saw only the artist Victoria Sin who is an amazing illustrator known for her oout their designs and her street art just sat a stall selling her new range of clothing Victory.

Who needs high street you only end up with badly cut, poor quailty items and end up looking like everyone else...so everyone embrace the beauty that is granny chic!





Vintage Emporium loved the spaniels on her apron
