Sous Le Soleil

January 13, 2012 by igetakickoutofyou

I’ve been thinking about doing an “Inspired Buys” post each week. Whether I can keep up with that and the monthly vintage recreation remains to be seen, but I’ll certainly give it a go: Today it is all about the sun – how often do we Londoners get to say that? What a glorious winter day…. Take your pick from lemon zest and rich yoke, spring has hit the shops: Clockwise from right: Shoes £60 Topshop, Harris Tweed Brooch £9 […]

“Bernice bobs her hair” – The Watermelon Flapper Dress

November 24, 2011 by igetakickoutofyou

What a wonderful experience vintage fairs are – in fact I am convinced they are good for the soul. I always get that childish anticipation that I’m going to find a real hidden treasure – although typically the price tag is too high! So at the London Fashion & Textile Fair I unearthed this sorbet flavoured flapper dress from Velvet Atelier and they let me take a few shots of it. The detail on the edging is exquisite – the […]
