Could this mysterious looking bottle hold the elixir of love?

Ahh, sadly, it does not. But that does not stop us from imagining that it does! Furthermore, it can’t actually hold anything. It just has the shape of a bottle!

As you can see from the photos, the oriental-inspired floral design is different on either side of the pendant.

Charming!

How cute is this gold-tone and enamel Bell Boy brooch??!!

It features him on the job, carrying four suitcases on his trolley!

If you ask us, they kinda look like they are going to fall off any minute! 🙂

Get the bell boy!

Show off your decolletage with this off-shoulder 1980s black and white dress (Size: S/M).

Feminine and romantic, this dress has a tight bodice and a full skirt. A small floral print covers the whole dress, culminating in a black rosette at

the left hip. The collar dips enticingly into a V at the front and back.We finish it off with vintage earrings, also in the shape of a flower! Made in Western Germany, these clip-ons are 30 years older than the dress, yet complement it!

Just wanted to give a shout out to all those who have enquired after our items posted here only to find out that things have been sold.

Vintage dresses are one-off, and once they get sold, we can’t replace them, because they were all created in the past a long long time ago! : P

From now, we will indicate under each new post (as much as is possible) once something gets sold. Th

ank you all for your support!

Do try and keep in mind that we have loads of stuff not featured here – only 5% or less of our entire range is photographed and put up online.

So the best thing to do is to come down to the shop to browse and discover for yourself the treasures that we are hiding in our shop!

Hello, Monday!

Today, we present to you a long black dress (Size: M/L) that’s a little more subdued than our usual.

It’s from the 1970s, and has got a lace flap that flops over the front and back of the torso. It’s pretty, but also more sombre and restrained.

It’s for those days when you don’t really feel like wearing colour at all, but still want a touch of vintage!

We pair it here with a black 1940s fabric bag with a pearlescent accent, as well as a pair of very pretty 1960s Austrian enamel floral earrings.
