Vintage Outfit post: Around Borough Market

Hope your all having a fabulous weekend? We have spent the weekend visiting family in Essex and enjoying the much needed sunshine. These photos were taken last weekend around the back of Borough Market, you can see more photos of the actual market here from a previous post.

Since these photos I have changed my hair colour... I will share this with you soon! We also have lots of Vintage clothes ending auctions on Ebay tonight so be sure to check our site to join in the bidding fun!

Vintage outfit post: Dressed in velvet

One of my favourite new vintage dresses I kept back for myself from our recent buying trip. Love the shape, the colour, the fabric, the swing in the skirt and the ruched sleeves...this dress makes me feel good:) What dresses in your wardrobe appeal to you the most at the moment?

Happy valentines! Ross made me a delicious breakfast this morning and now were off out for some more fun. Enjoy today what ever your plans may be x

Ps: We have over 60 auctions up form £4.95 on The Attic People ebay ending this sunday and more new stock added to The Attic People Vintage plus 25% off everything!!

Vintage sent across the globe...

Selling vintage clothes can be hard at times right? Having to decide what to sell and what not to sell can be difficult sometimes. When sifting through new stock I tend to make a "keep myself" pile which gradually gets way too high so I will usually have to whittle it down! 

This lovely dress above was sold along with another to the lovely Marisa of Shades of Monet. Im so glad this vintage dress ended up across the globe into such a stylish wardrobe. I love the way Marisa has styled this dress with daring pops of red and that sweet daisy broach. It's very rewarding being able to see how our customers choose to style and wear our vintage :) Be sure to check out Marisa's blog for lots more amazing outfit posts!

Vintage outfit post: Borough Market

London has so many wonderful places and things to explore. Since we settled here in May me and Ross  made a pact between us to try something new each weekend. So far we have pretty much achieved this, even if it is a small thing like trying a new restaurant, or walking through a different park or market. Last Saturday afternoon was spent browsing around bustling Borough market, we drank warm spiced cider and filled our bellies with yummy pulled pork baguettes. I can imagine this place will be very magical nearer to christmas!

Last week was pretty quiet here as I was freelancing for Coast in their head office off of Old Street. I was working on artworks for their S/S 2012 Collection which looks like it's going to be very beautiful. This week should be back to normal with more frequent posts. Hope you enjoy the pictures... I am also looking forward to catching up on your posts too :)

Vintage outfit post: Autumn change

The past few weeks have been so busy! We have had wedding's and parties to attend, lots of freelance deadlines to complete, as well as shooting all of our new vintage stock that should hit The Attic People Vintage online within the next couple of weeks. It feels more like Autumn here now after that beautiful freak October heat-wave the weather now feels as it should for this time of year. Lat weekend I pulled out a new vintage dress and mac coat I have been waiting patiently to wear and that day was the perfect temperature. Ross also pulled out one of his hats for the first time in ages which was nice.

I love this time of year, so many amazing colours everywhere from the bark of the trees to the pretty leaves on the floor. Since these photos were taken I have had a change in hair style which I will share with you soon, As you can see my roots were in need of some colour and by bleach blonde locks were sadly unhealthy. Hope your all having a good week so far :)

Vintage Mens Clothing : Outfit Post

These photos were taken last night before ross went to out to meet his friend. I snapped him in a bit of a hurry but I really wanted to capture this outfit. I love it when Ross mixes vintage with new making good use of his accessories. I like the clashing prints and colours for this smart casual look. I may have inspired Ross to be bolder with his choice of prints and colours but in my eyes he can pull this off well! Ross is quite open to experiment with his clothes I adore this about him :) Have you managed to influence your boyfriend/husband/friends with what they wear?

Vintage outfit post: Walthamstow Art Deco Town Hall

Me and ross took a little time out this week to explore Walthamstow, It could be a potential next move for us here in London. Whilst looking around the green part of the area we stumbled across this incredible grand Art Deco building which is the town hall. We walked around so much that day but stopping to have a rest here definitely made our aching feet worth while!

One of my favorite textile designers William Morris was also born here too. I was totally unaware of this until researching the area a little more... this adds even more charm to the area for me.

Have a great weekend all :)
