As some of you may know, as well as my blog I also write for She Might Be, an online community full of plus size fashion, beauty and a whole host of other fabulous things. One of my recent posts was all about my love of vintage hats, and as I've added a few more… Continue reading Hats, glorious (vintage) hats!

Z is for zzz: sleeping in pin curls
It's the very last week of my A-Z of a vintage girl in a modern world, how did that happen? Let's celebrate with my first ever hair tutorial! This post is all about wet sets, which is what I usually do on a Friday night (I know, so rock & roll), as it means my… Continue reading Z is for zzz: sleeping in pin curls

W is for Wedding: the A-Z of a Vintage Girl in a Modern World
Ok, I admit it - this week's blog is basically just a reason for me to talk about our wedding again, because I loved it quite a lot. New readers - this blog started out as a wedding countdown, so if you fancy reading the ramblings of a relatively stressed out bride (with what I… Continue reading W is for Wedding: 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! A long-standing date in many a vintage-lover's calendar, I've been going to for the last eight years. Long-time readers will remember me talking about Twinwood Festival in the past (if you're new to the… Continue reading T is for Twinwood Festival: the A-Z of a Vintage Girl in a Modern World
S is for Stories: the A-Z of a Vintage Girl in a Modern World
An avid people watcher (and I mean, really avid – I do it while we’re walking around the supermarket, it drives The Boy mad), I love making up stories about people I see going about their day-to-day lives. They’re probably doing something pretty mundane (especially if they’re in the supermarket), but in my head, they’re… Continue reading S is for Stories: the A-Z of a Vintage Girl in a Modern World
K is for Keeping it Classy: the A-Z of a Vintage Girl in a Modern World
I'm writing this the day after The Boy has left for a work trip, which makes me sad (partly because I promised to sort out the spare room while he was away, and I'm three hours in and still only about halfway through). I'm also writing this in the same room as what I believe… Continue reading K is for Keeping it Classy: the A-Z of a Vintage Girl in a Modern World
J is for Jewellery: the A-Z of a Vintage Girl in a Modern World
Happy Sunday, one and all! I'd like to start with two very, very exciting pieces of news. The first is that my second guest post, a condensed version of this very A-Z, is now live on the fabulous Pin Up Persuasion blog. I'm so, so grateful to Jessica for the opportunity, and once you've read… Continue reading J is for Jewellery: the A-Z of a Vintage Girl in a Modern World
H is for Hair Flowers & Happy Times: The A-Z of a Vintage Girl in a Modern World
I am properly obsessed with hair flowers. I love them - they're a mega-easy way to accessorise an outfit, and can even bring a bit of summer sunshine to a dreary, drizzly November morning. Such is my obsession that when I went for my first job interview at where I now work, a friend whose… Continue reading H is for Hair Flowers & Happy Times: The A-Z of a Vintage Girl in a Modern World
F is for Friends: A-Z of a vintage girl in a modern world
I would like to start this post with a heartfelt apology. I work with lots of lovely people, who are wonderfully supportive of this blog, and the things I do in my spare time. One of them even helpfully brainstormed potential topics for the letter 'E' last week, including elegance. While it wasn't my intention,… Continue reading F is for Friends: A-Z of a vintage girl in a modern world
