Interview with…Voodoo Vixen HQ
Some of my most lusted-after items at the moment are from Voodoo Vixen (including - but not limited to - the Ella dress and Madelyn skirt).

Festive frocks: Mrs Claus chic
Christmas cards are (mostly) written, wrapping is...well, nowhere near done, but I've bought the wrapping paper, so I'm already ahead of where I was this time last year.

It doesn't have to be, of course, but for me, wearing something vintage-inspired underneath my dresses makes my outfits feel a little bit more special. In the run up to our… Continue reading U is for Under Garments: the A-Z of a Vintage Girl in a Modern World
T is for Twinwood Festival: the A-Z of a Vintage Girl in a Modern World
Ah, T - stands for Toblerone, tolerance, tenacity - lots of awesome words. But perhaps my most favourite of all, Twinwood Festival!
