Fancy some more vintage style?

I really enjoyed my trip to the vintage fair, so I wanted to share with you a few of my favourite blogs and websites from fellow vintage lovers.

The first is Retro Chick from Gemma Seager. 

Whether its fashion, hair, beauty, lifestyle, opinion or health and fitness, this blog is a comprehensive treasure trove for any vintage fan.   


Gemma focusses 'on the glamorous, quirky, unusual or with a vintage twist' and also authors some other blogs and websites, including Lipstick, Lettuce & Lycra  and We Want All the Dresses.  They are well worth perusing, though Retro Chick is the prime blog for all things vintage, and bringing some vintage sparkle to your world.  Its easy to get distracted with her posts, including one about what's in her dressing room (and one with an oreo image attached!).

Next is Eco Vintage from Katie Thomas

http://eco-vintage.com/

This blog features quality posts about sustainable fashion and fashion brands.  It is where I came across Discovered, one of the best (in my opinion) online marketplaces for fairly selling products from artisans all around the world.   Fair, because they allow people to buy straight from the producers, which gives more of the profit to the artisans.  They are a sustainable business, and you can read their story on their website here:  https://www.discovered.us/
Eco Vintage is a well-established blog and publishes quality posts about fashion, the environment and beauty.  One to browse whenever you want to read about a new brand or charitable organisations who are doing good things for us, fashion and the environment.  Have a look here:  eco-vintage.com

Third is Dawn O'Porter's website

http://www.dawnoporter.co.uk

From the up-cycle/re-cycle/vintage wear pro, author, fashionista and TV presenter,  this website highlights what I love about vintage clothing; that it is less 'old and musty' and more 'unique and glamorous'.  This website is a good place to read about her many books that she has written and what she is working on, such as her articles for various publications, her TV work and any tips and examples of beautiful vintage style.  Enjoy browsing here:  www.dawnoporter.co.uk
