One of my absolute favourite collections from this year so far, was a recent selection of really special vintage pieces in very classic shades of red and cream. This collection had some real treasures including some very lovely rare Laura Ashley pieces. This collection especially focuses on separates and capsule wardrobe pieces, perfect for mixing and matching.
I really love the combination of simple vintage blouses, paired with patterned and floral skirts. The versatility of a beautiful full cotton vintage skirt is endless!
This collection featured some of my favourite vintage blouses ever, the kind you just can’t find similar to on the high street anymore. I always look for blouses with little extra details like cute collars and bows, perfect for layering under pinafore dresses and lovely knits.
