Vintage Glamour


Mum brought over this vintage dress yesterday when she dropped in to visit. It was given to us by a family member who was cleaning out a very old family home. If I breathe in it fits me pretty well.


What beautiful lace work. It came with a small bolero jacket that isn't shown here.
The skirt of the dress is so heavy! 


The lace flowers have a pearl bead in their centre.


The lovely fine straw bonnet came from the same place. I just love this hat and would love to wear it to the races one day. The black purse came from Lyn's mother's friend. I have some other vintage bits that I'll show you next time.


As you can see from the first photo, I still haven't properly fitted and painted the skirting and picture rail in my room. I have almost unpacked and sorted all my bits and pieces so that's good.
I hope you are all having a nice day xx
