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: The streets of London

Weekends have been super relaxed for us lately, I hope to continue this vibe over the couple of days...even weeks before the winter celebrations start! Last sunday was spent strolling around East London's brick lane and Spitalfields market (where we have had previous vintage outfit post's). The weather was warm and the sun was shining, we ate pad thai, took in the stunning East London architecture, and browsed through the markets.

Today we're going to explore Borough Market which is a wholesale and retail food market in Southwark, London. It has lots of different types of food there like fish, meats, vegetables, ciders, cheeses, breads, coffees, cakes and patisseries. Loads of yummy food and drink to sample! Always good to explore a new place. Have a great weekend everyone!

This weekend was so relaxed I loved it. We have done a fare amount of traveling around the country over the summer so it felt so nice to be at home and enjoy London in a super relaxed way. 

We started off the weekend with a nice lie in followed by freshly baked berry and cinnamon muffins for breakfast baked by myself, they turned out very yummy I must say. Me and Ross went our separate ways in the afternoon to spend some time with friends. I headed down to broadway market with my dear friend Neil, we browsed through the stalls, went for lunch and stopped of at some lovely East London cafes for lattes. Ross headed into central London to the film musem with his long time friend Tim.

Sunday was spent indoors just lazing around for a change! How was your weekend?

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?

Ross wearing: Vintage Jacket from our Vintage Mens Clothing, Charity shop vintage tie and shoes I picked up for Ross, Vintage belt fromVintage Mens Clothing, Trousers and shirt from Topman.
