Vintage Favourites - July 2020

Writer's picture: EmmaEmma

Well I must begin by apologising for the absence of June favourites. Between heatwaves, thunderstorms and the shop re-opening it was a strange and busy month that just flew away with me! But that does mean that my vintage favourites for July are even better! We have added some absolutely amazing items to the website recently and have more gems to photograph and list all the time, so remember to keep checking our socials for more arrivals as the month goes on.


For now I have a veritable banquet of original vintage fashion and accessories for you to feast your eyes on, so let's get started with our first category...


VINTAGE SHOES

I simply had to start with these INCREDIBLE original seventies platforms. I think these could well be the best vintage shoes we have ever had, I absolutely adore them! Perfect to wear with an original vintage dress, vintage flares or to inject retro flavour to a modern outfit. Click the image for more information.
