Filming, Fun And Fashion


We had a fab time at The Razzle Dazzle Traveling Vintage Fair at Cedar Farm Galleries on the 13th! The weather turned out great (yay) and there was a fantastic mix of stalls! Here's a shot from the day!



Part of our pop-up boutique for the day! Summer vintage galore!



My mini haul from Vintage Faith at the fair! She had so many fab retro goodies it was hard to choose! I'm really getting into my pleated, high waist skirts at the moment so chose this cute pastel green one for my latest addition to my skirt horde and then this funky vintage bag which will be great for going into autumn!



Our latest news is that our blog Retro Queen Says... will soon be coming to YouTube! We will be doing little videos on how to style up vintage items, and different looks you can get with the same piece! Here's a sneak peek at our first one! Coming soon, so keep posted for more updates!



Just a quick note on this lovely exhibition at Manchester Art Gallery called Cotton Couture! I went for a mooch their last weekend and it was well worth a visit! Some of the most amazing vintage pieces I've ever seen! And all made in 1950's Manchester! Pop in there if you get a chance! And of course I couldn't resist a pose! Heh Heh




Our next vintage adventure is coming up on August 9th at The Flag Market in Preston! Run by the amazing Dolly Dazzler Presents it's sure to be a fab day out! Loads going on not just vintage shopping! (although that's the best really!) Hee Hee 

Our retro song of the week is only retro inspired, but god I did love this song when it came out! She is definitely chanelling the vintage vixen! Enjoy!

Back In Time


Hope you've all been enjoying the sunshine! After our fabulous vintage makeover day with Kitty Wink Vintage we got the professional photos through! I'm really pleased with all the photos, and after such a fun day too! I can't put them all on, so here's my favourite 3!


Day Dreaming....This was taken just outside The Old Vintage Tea Rooms, where the vintage day was held in a studio above the tea shop! I love the vintage suitcases!


So pleased we got the chance to have photos done with this gorgeous vintage 54 Chevy! Really feel like I've gone back in time in this photo!


I love this shot! What a glamorous set of ladies indeed! I wish every day could be that glam! The gorgeous Cara from Vintage Faith is next to me and then the lovely Emma with the fabulous 'Unicorn' hair! It was an utter pleasure to be snapped in this beauty of a car!  I can't wait for the next vintage tutorial day! Hopefully a 60's themed or 20's themed one is on the cards next! Excited!



Summer is upon us and we are loving this fab 80's yellow dress! Chic, retro and cool for summer its the perfect addition to your wardrobe! Get the look including the shiny clip-ons and 70's waist belt/necklace in our vintage box now! Get all 3 vintage treasures for under £30 too! 



Our next vintage adventure will be at The Razzle Dazzle Travelling Vintage Fair this Sunday 13th @ Cedar Farm Galleries! The galleries are great, there's 2 funky cafe's and the selection of vintage is fab! So it's a must day out! Hope to see you there! 10am till 4pm!

For our retro song of the week we are going back to the summer of 1980 for a funky summer tune which I can't resist to love! Enjoy!
