Vintage Knitting Patterns


Thanks to the awesome Vixen Vintage I discovered the amazingness that is 
the V&A collection of 1940's Patterns To Knit.






All these Patterns and more available FREE to download here.
I love the Turbans and the last Cardigan pattern. I am still working my way through the Cannot Fail To Please jumper, but I'm getting there, almost done with the back and so am getting itchy feet, looking around for my next project!! 
Hope you all are having a lovely week so far!!

Mary Blair


I can't believe I have just come across Mary Blair's beautiful illustrations till now!!
I have a real thing about art inspired by folk tales and Mary is the Queen of that, her beautiful colour styling used by Disney on Alice in wonderland, Cinderella and Peter Pan.









This last one is my favourite, would love a print of it for my wall!!
Hope you all are having lovely weekend.

Vintage Blogs



I'm sure you all know my love of vintage. 
Its a funny thing really when you think about it, how its become a bit of a buzz word, everything has to be VINTAGE. 
Which is fine, really, but for me that's not what its about. 
I love the clothes, how they fit and make me feel.
I love the music, the dancing.
I love how it was a simpler time, which some days I really crave.

There are some Bloggers who really fit how I feel about the whole thing, so here's my post to them.
 My fashion inspiration:)

Whoever loves a good cape as much as I do is a winner:)

This lady manages to dress vintage and still look like she belongs in 2013, such pretty hats too!!

Katie has the most beautiful photos, and styles her clothes beautifully. Plus her pictures of her and her mans road trip around America have fuelled ideas for my next trip:)


Johanna is just awesome, I want her wardrobe and vast collection of scarves and hats, does this girl know how to dress it up! 

I hope you all have marvellous weekends planned!! 
Happy Friday

The Beauty of Calogero Cammalleri







Found this beautiful photographer today, his portraits are just gorgeous.
I often wonder how they do it. . . .take a photo and seem to capture someone's soul.

Happy Saturday everyone!!!
Hope you are all having a great one.

In God We Trust









Its June. . . . .. Supposedly summer.
England hasn't quite cottoned onto the fact yet.  
But when the sun finally decides to show up I fancy swanning around in something simple and cute.
Cue this cute collection out of New York.
I love the clean lines and that sunglasses print is awesome.

Musical Sunday - Roo Panes


So yesterday, nursing an annoying head cold, I dragged myself down to Shepherds bush with some friends for Bushstock, a cute little new music festival.
It was fun and I got to see Willy Mason and Bears Den live, 2 of my favs, and also got experience this BEAUTIFUL man, Roo Panes.
Nothing I love more than a beautiful man singing me love songs:)




I hope everyone is having a lovely Sunday!!!
