A vintage fashion and style blog
First things first, dear readers - there are only a couple of weeks left in the Miss Vintage UK 2016 public vote, and, having entered, I would dearly love to get in front of the judges.

To help me get through to the… Continue reading A is for Audrey (and others) – the A-Z of a vintage girl in a modern world
