Summer essentials....

Laugh if you will but my summer essentials

are a basket full of Jelly Shoes 

to be worn with absolutely everything 

I'm going to have a rainbow of colours of them

as they are the most comfortable and versatile 

sandals on the planet.

They have taken over from my winter Fly London boots.

And if you are thinking  

"oh they won't look good on me, my feet are to big"

well you've no need to worry there as I take a UK size 8.

They don't get much bigger than that.

Think I might wear my yellow ones next

You can pick them up in most stores I think but mine came from 

www.sunjellies.co.uk

Before you go, I just want to show you this fabulous stitched/painted picture

that friend Ruth Zanoni Roskell made from the photograph

she spotted of us Vintage Gals at Stockport Vintage Market.

Isn't it fabulous

VISIBLE MONDAY

Vintage girls do it with style

 On Sunday the vintage girls were out in force doing what we do best -

encouraging one another. 

Here we all are perusing our friend Vix's gorgeous stock

www.vintagevixon.blogspot.co.uk

 

The wandering welder joined us as well. 

Frocks and tops were bought

This little 70's day dress came from Vix.

Handsome people were admired

Earrings and handkerchiefs came home with us

from Silly Gilly Vintage and Essentially Eagle Vintage

and beautiful crockery for our kitchen dresser

from friends Pat & Matthew of a Vintage Affair

The day was rounded off with a tea party for this lovely lady 

who is now 90 but was 16 when this picture was taken

Its always a fabulous day at Stockport Vintage Village

and we get to do it all again next month

Yesterday was a perfect day for the monthly Stockport Vintage Village event

The sun shone, the scooter clubs came along and the music was fantastic.

We met up with many Instagram friends including Ericka and Phil

who travelled over from Sheffield

I found some fabulous knitwear. 

This Scotch Wool Shop shetland wool cardigan

and this super gorgeous handknitted waistcoat was

£5 from Make Do & Mend

Garbo Vintage & Antiques had this floral cotton smock.

Just my thing at the moment and I've styled it

with a charity shop find top and the mad tights

friend Vix gave me last year

The red and green polyester dresses came from  The Queens Drawers 

who I get a lot of my clobber off and they are teamed up with 

£1.50 cardigans of Todmorden secondhand market.

Look at Mr Dapper Chap in his new overcoat

off Mick at Garbo Vintage & Antiques

 He hardly looks like the wandering welder in this lot.

 The little hair clips on Lollipop Vintages stall reminded 

me of being a little girl and mum putting them in my hair

We couldn't come home without a pile of 

cakes off Stuart Thornley Cake Designs, it 

would have been rude to leave them behind.

My favourite find of the fair was this 50's Barkcloth

skirt off Jane Hamilton and right next to Jane I picked up from Sheila's Store

this handknitted top which goes perfectly with the skirt

MASHing different patterns, era's, styles,textures and colours together 

is my favourite pastime right now.  The more MASHed the better.

Even though I look like I've blown the budget you will be pleased to know

that I came home £16 in pocket and with the red and green dress for free.

You see I had taken a pile of clobber with me to sell on.

I do love vintage shopping with the added advantage of knowing I am doing my 

bit for the enviroment by recycling over and over the same clothes. Yay !
