Just a few detail shots from the vintage fair that I mentioned in my last post. It was quite a small affair but I really enjoyed it. A few people asked me if I blogged when they saw my camera and I discovered that quite a lot of the vendors themselves were online. We vintage-lovers sure love our blogs.
I ended up coming home with this incredible suede skirt (which is in need of a good clean) and a pair of kitchy 1970s sunglasses that remind me ever so slightly of some of the Prada styles that have been around lately with their huge frames and wavy arms. Had funds allowed, I could have bought a lot more!
Wow, that skirt is absolutely amazing. I am loving it’s scalloped edging! And it’s a lovely colour.

I absolutely love that scalloped hem on the suede skirt! & you are so right about vintage lovers & our blogs. When I read that I actually thought “are there different kinds of blogs?”

That skirt is brilliant, the texture looks so unique.
Hannah your pictures are always so lovely and inspiring. Great finds! I hope you don’t mind, I used some of your pictures for an inspiration post for my next visual merchandising theme at work. I have linked you and spread the Foxtail and Fern love. xx
wow, there was a lot of pretty stuff there! oh and I love the skirt : )

Wow, that looks wonderful! Great finds, I especially love the scalloped-edge skirt.
AMAZING! There are never Vintage fairs like that around my town… shame. :/
Oh, well. I suppose I must live vicariously through other bloggers/vintage addicts. :)
P.S. Enter my giveaway, if you’d like. :)
The scalloped skirt looks gorgeous, absolutely love the colour and the buttons – it’s just a shame it looks a little stained (although I hope it’ll look better after a good wash!). It’s not unlike things that have been cropping up in Topshop, so well done on finding it! The vintage fair looked great… all that crockery and vintage photography looked a treat. Model the skirt in the next post? xxx
Lovely photos! Especially the first one x
Absolutely ADORE the scalloped edge suede skirt. I absolutely love suede skirts and yours is particularly yum. Hope you’re enjoying post-uni freedom xx
Looks like a treasure trove to me! Great finds :)
I’m drooling over the pictures of the vintage fair. Really makes me wish I could go down to a few of my favorite antique stores and browse right now!
That skirt is gorgeous!

Lovely stuff! I am hankering after that Penguin edition of Sherlock Holmes so hard right now.
I could spend all day wandering through antique fairs. I am such a sucker for old dresses and books (especially children’s books). All of the lovely items in your pictures look like little goodies I could want to take home! xx
that skirt is amazing! and i see so many great things in the other photos! gosh!!
what beautiful pictures – it looks like the perfect vintage fair!
Haha I am not surprised at all that vintage-lovers are also bloggers. The fair looks pretty awesome and I am really digging the scalloped edge of the suede skirt.
What a wonderful fair – your finds are lovely (as always!). x
Hi!
My header is actually a photograph I took from Ernest Hemingway’s home in Havana, Cuba. He and his wife Mary had amazing taste. I’m totally drawn to the aesthetic of his place though. Taxidermied animal heads, an enviable book and record collection, animal parts in jars, and a Picasso.
love your photographs by the way, I definitely plan on coming back to your blog!
We vintage bloggers sure love to blog…and I absolutely adore yours. That suede, scalloped hemmed mini is just divine. What a wonderful find! Jaharn xo.

Such great finds!
I love the first photo of the old photographs – seeing things like that at vintage fairs always makes me a little sad. Is that what my photographs are destined for?

Thanks Hannah! You’re officially the first person to comment on my new blog. I really appreciate it:)
I’m glad I’m not the only NT geek out there. I just like being able to wallow in history for an afternoon. I would love to get my hands on that box of vintage photos also I’m feeling kind of sad for selling a similar suede skirt i found last year. It wasn’t quite as good as that lovely number though.
Fabulous finds! And the scalloped hem is really quite beautiful let alone on that skirt. Good decisions. Lovely blog!
that skirt is so lovely! I nearly bought a similar one from topshop but I think I’ll wait and see if I can find a vintage one xxx
Those are great finds! That looks like a really cool time, exactly the sort of thing I enjoy
So much gold! I never seem to find anything this good.
Beautiful photos and I love those glasses. I’m really glad you enjoyed the fair (I’m the organiser), and we’re hoping to hold another near to Christmas. Amy (Blighty Boutique) x
I love seeing glimpses of flea markets & antique fairs, especially ones in other countries. The box of vintage snapshots is tempting, I would have definitely grabbed a few for my collection.
You came away with some treasures too, can’t wait to see how you style the wonderful scalloped skirt!
this is a fantastic post, thanks for sharing :) i must say, i wish my local op shop sold chickens. or had a pen with chickens that i could gush over. i guess that would be okay too.
Hi Hannah,
You bought the sunglasses from me! I love your photographs of the fair at Hatton & subsequent stroll in the ‘country’…was certainly a beautiful day for it. I have a few questions for you & have tried to contact you through the hello link but for some reason it’s just not happening. Could you email me at angelawendydarling@gmail.com & we’ll have a chat.
Love your blog!
Oh, it looks like my ultimate happy place (:
That skirt is sooo lovely. It’s photograph is to be found everywhere throughout the tumblr world. I love it’s scalloped edge and pretty color!
That skirt is out of this world! Such a wonderful find.
awesome stuff!! that fair looks amazing! the skirt is very similar to one in topshop, so that was a score :D thanks for stopping by my blog, and yes, don’t worry! you did reply to my email :)

That place looks like so much fun! I love all the florals, and that Sherlock Holmes book is really neat!
I love this. I have to go to Hatton Park next year.
