Spitalfields Vintage Fair- May the Fourth Be With You! 

15/5/2013

We had a blast at our latest visit to Old Spitalfields Market with our vintage wares. The theme was 'May the Fourth Be With You', as it happened to be on the 4th of May ;-) As well as the usual quality selection of vintage fashion and homewares, there was a galactic vibe and sci fi twist to the market.

Retrovert's contribution to the theme was this gorgeous little sequinned purse - full of glamour yet evocative of galaxies far, far away! 

I wore my new Horrockses fruit print frock which is now a firm favourite in my wardrobe. It was impossible to resist the temptations of the other stalls and I indulged in some novelty buttons from Accessories of Old and picked up a pair of 50s specs from the wonderful Auntie Aviator. I just need to get some lenses for them and then I'll share them here on the blog in all their cat eye glory!

Our stall was full of spring florals, colourful dresses and an array of stylish handbags and jewellery.

My favourite sale of the day was this 60s 'pixelated paisley' dress to the lovely Amy. She looked so fabulous in it she decided to wear it straight away!

We plan to be back at Old Spitalfields Market over the Summer, but for now we are busy choosing what vintage delights we'll be bringing to our stall at Cambridge Vintage Fair this Saturday May 18th. Hope to see some of you there!

Doesn't she! I just love it when someone finds something that suits and fits them perfectly. :-)
