Its amazing how style can change and evolve as we grow. Now days I've shed my 'modern' pinup which was where I started in retro with my long red hair and super bold prints (definitely an 80s feel to them too) and now dressing a more authentic 40s-50s look. One of the biggest elevators of… Continue reading Stepping into the 40s with Royal Vintage Shoes

Dazzling Red in Dita with Voodoo Vixen
We all have a power colour. A colour we’re drawn to naturally. A colour that when we wear it, makes us feel invincible. For me that colour has long been red.

Garden Wanders ~ 1940s styling with Vivien of Holloway
As a pear shaped gal who loved 1940’s styles, it can be hard.

There are hurdles of being a pear shape when it comes to… Continue reading Garden Wanders ~ 1940s styling with Vivien of Holloway
