My Little Vintage Project

Evening :)

I know a few people will start doing Christmas posts around now but don't worry, that probably won't happen for another few weeks. This is just a little post about a little project. 

Whilst visiting Retrospect a few weeks ago, the owner, Mr Psychedelic Jim, told me that the local Cancer Research store was looking for someone to help revamp their vintage section so I want along to the store and now I'm volunteering there weekly.
I've been told I have complete free reign over the section and, even though it is only a small section, I think it'll be a fun bit of work where I can do just about anything and put what I've been learning the past 2 years studying retail and fashion into practice.

Each time I go in, I'll upload pictures of my (what I hope will be) progress. 

Week 1
I forgot to take a 'before' picture but here's what I've done so far.

Couldn't find a full mannequin but a limbless torso is more than I expected in all honesty
and it's perfect for this gorge oversized blazer.

Vintage tweed blazers. My favourite got sold before I could buy it...
No more Mrs Nice Girl

I love a good tapestry bag
Aiming for small and mighty. Watch this space.



Stay beautiful,
