Vintage London in December

Hello dearies, I hope this dark, moody weather isn't affecting your internal sunshine!
I'm making plans, looking forward to Christmas already, and am trying to pull together a London trip for the first weekend in December.  So far, this is my itinerary:

Friday 2nd December
Probably shopping for underwear

Saturday 3rd December
Probably eating cake

Sunday 4th December
  • Afternoon workshop at What Katie Did.
  • Vintage furniture flea, Bethnal Green.
Does anyone know of any other vintagey events that are happening that weekend?  I was disappointed there isn't a Candlelight Club running, no Ric Rac club, or likewise.  Do let me know if there's something exciting happening!!

I leave you with this still from Brief Encounter - I got to see this yesterday for the first time, and loved it!

Vintage Events This Weekend in Wales!

No plans for the weekend?  Need an update to your vintage Autumn wardrobe?  Then head to one, or both of the following events!

Saturday 22nd October - Cardiff
Big Girl's Blouse, vintage and retro clothing and accessories specialist is moving from the courtyard off Wellfield Road in Roath to brand spanking new larger premises on Crwys Road, Cathays.  The new shop will be just over the bridge, next to the antiques shop.  From midday tomorrow, the new store will be launched with a live band, tea and cake, and the chance to peruse their offerings.  I had a rummage today and they have lots of great vintage dresses from the 1940s and 1950s, plus vintage slips and girdles, bags, shoes, What Katie Did lingerie, Outer Limitz clothing, and a selection of corsets.  I am saddened by the fact I shall be in work and will miss this event.

Sunday 23rd October - Swansea
Blind Lemon Vintage offers another opportunity for South Wales folk to attend a vintage fair.  Being held on  Sunday from 10.00am to 4.00pm at George Hall, Brangwyn Hall, The Guildhall, Guildhall Rd South, Swansea.  Get your tickets on the door for £4, or save yourself £2 by booking in advance online at http://www.blindlemonvintage.com/

Have fun whatever you end up doing,
