You might remember that in the summer I posted a blog about the vintage style bags on the AW10 runways. And that I've been pretty obsessed with them since. Well whats better than those than actual vintage bags!
I'm always a bit disappointed when in vintage shops looking at their vintage bags. Most are well used, and you can tell. I'm all for pre-loved but I do want something I can keep forever that still gonna look amazing. So with some birthday money in my purse I went a trek round Glasgow's best...and found nothing until Mr Ben. I love Mr Ben. The lady who owns the store is amazing and always has wonderful stories to tell!
I LOVELOVELOVE IT!
Do you not just think its stunning? It was dated 50/60's and I coudn't resist. It's pretty much mark free :) I just need to find a ladylike occassion to wear it!
On Saturday, I was meant to be in Birmingham at Clothes Show Live, however the weather had others ideas. Stuck in Glasgow with a weekend off work, what's a girl to do other than head out shopping! Me and mum headed out to get some more of the Christmas shopping done and I declared that since it was a Saturday we were heading to the Barras to finally visit the lovely Made In The Shade Girl's new home and their Saturday Supermercado! The Barras may have been cold, but with all their lovely sellers the place felt lovely and warm with sooo many cheerful faces braving the freezing temperatures to set up shop! You've gotta go and get yourself some handmade lovlies!
The Barras centre is also Che Camille's new home, which I had actually visited before :) however there had been some changes! Their HQ the last time was just that, now its a cosier version of thier Buchannan St shop and has the best of the selection they had before. I treated myself to this lovely little handbag.
It's soo pretty and matches a dress I just bought. It's also dated 60's so I've found my favourite handbag era eh?
