I worked on a vintage stall raising money for Helen and Douglas House. H&D provide hospice and palliative care to children and young adults, for more info visit www.helenanddouglas.org.uk.
I worked the Friday and Saturday; I sold lots of vintage goodies, bought myself some vintage goodies and the highlight for me was seeing the Overtones and Imelda May!!
Lots of people ask me why I don't sell vintage or do something similar for a living...I often ask myself this... Well now I have my answer... I'm too lazy! It's a lot of hard work and can be quite stressful, I like my academic, nine to five with rounders at lunchtimes!! Ill stick to the buying!! :D
Here it is in pics...

And finally my best bargain... Pale blue 60s mod suit in mint condition!!

this festival looked lie lotta fun!
the red hell bunny two piece dress looks adorable on you.
Perhaps you could do Consultations on the side!? *winks* You look Vintage Lovely... and yes, the Buying is so much more Enjoyable than the Selling... tho' I do both now that I'm in semi-retirement and following my Bliss. Must find a way after all to fund those Buying trips now that I'm in Senior-land! *LOL*
