We had a great time at the weekend at the Spectacular Vintage Wedding Fair which took place over the weekend. It was super busy and we met lots of fantastic people from other bridal vendors to new customers.

Thanks to all involved!

I didn't get to take pictures of all the stands but also worth checking out are the beautiful creations from Emma Jean Jewellery  , stunning veils from Visionary Veils and delicious treats and macaroons from The Sweet Treat Company  and Macaroons by Andrea  

It was also great to catch up with the amazing ladies from One Fab Day who you might actually catch up with at the National Ploughing Championships which are currently taking place!

Which Shoes would you Choose?

Ah shoes...my old nemesis...or at least my bank accounts nemesis!

I lurve shoes of all shapes, sizes and styles, I really don't like to play favourites.

I'll jump from heels to boots, from sandals to spectators.

That said, I am totally devoted to vintage and that means having the right footwear to set off  an  array of dresses.

Now I never mastered the art of running over cobbles a la Carrie Bradshaw, nor can I carry my growing toddler in skyscrapers (I'm looking at you Victoria Beckham who is obviously held aloft by some giant puppeteer in the sky!) but I can walk around in near smug certainty that wearing my strappy Mary-Jane's or T-bars I will stay upright for the most part of the day...hopefully!!!

Below are a few current vintage style shoes that could be just what you are looking for...or maybe they're what I'm looking for???
