I am starting to realise that life isn't just about the things you fill it with. But that doesn't mean I don't still love these beautiful things. I am very lucky to have learnt the things I know about Vintage so if you want to know anything about any decade of Vintage Attire and Homeware please just ask. I specialise in 1920's through to the 1990's. Fashion is everchanging but grounded in the basic principle that we use it to express our individuality and personality.

New Treasures
Yesterday I had a lovely trip to Chesterfield Market... It was my lovely new (old) Clarks Orginals Heels first outing and they were surprisingly comfortable, especially considering how high the heel is! I stumbled upon a fantastic retro homeware stall that belongs to C Charles Antiques... here is there facebook link! http://www.facebook.com/pages/Vintage-at-C-Charles-Antiques/117500521667611
I bought two lovely sets of 1960's shot glasses and my best friend Paula nabbed herself a beautiful cake plate!
Then we found some 1950's dress patterns, a very successful shopping trip.

Busy Day's
Hey,
I have had a couple of busy days of buying, planning and making. Chesterfield Car Boot was the place to be today... I picked up some beautiful 1950's Champagne glasses, perfect for me and Saz (my little sister) to sip Prosecco from in the garden! I also found some 1960's red port glasses and a lovely 1950's dressing table set. On top of these goodies I bagged myself a beige leather suitcase, perfect for short journeys (maybe to Paris). Now we are planning lots of goodies to make for vintage markets.... If anyone has any ideas of things they would like to buy please let me know and we will try to make them....
I will post some photo's of my treasures later
Lots of Love xx

Vintage Updates
Hey there...
I am really interested in collaborating with local artists and purveyors of handmade delights to create a magnificent market of wonderment in Chesterfield. This town needs a touch of glamour and I am determined to inject it! So please anyone reading my blog that would enjoy being part of something innovative to the area then email me at lucy.willis197@live.co.uk
