Dear all,

Unfortunately due to a family issue, we are having to postpone this weekend's pop-up in Brading.

Fear not though, it will be rearranged for sometime in the early summer so watch this space!

In the meantime, you can still find us trading at Ruby's Vintage & Retro Fair in Hartley Whitney on 6th April and Lou Lous in Portsmouth on 10th May. And we are very excited!

I just LOVE this vintage sideboard! A new-to-me acquisition and perfect for the window in front of my new office space! So happy to give it a new home and fill it with all my business bits. I've rather out-grown the old one so have kicked the husband out of his bigger one and filled it with rails of vintage gorgeousness!

We were inundated with requests to start selling vintage menswear when we were in Portsmouth last weekend! Well...you spoke and we listened! I'm currently busy researching and sourcing and already have a few pieces ready to list! Watch this space!

In the meantime enjoy this pic of my Daddy striking a pose circa 1963!

Wow! What a day! Our first ever fair and it was just brilliant! Such a wonderful atmosphere and met some truly lovely people - traders and shoppers alike! I have the bug now for sure! Thanks so much @loulousvintagefair - we loved every minute! Huge thanks too to my glamorous assistant @beccyodonoghue for all her help today, and to my fabulous hubby and daughter for dragging themselves across The Solent at an unsociable hour this morning to carry all my stock and bits and pieces (even though they abandoned us and spent the day at Paultons Park! 🤣)
