Lust-Worthy Item Of The Week...

1960's Leather box bag, £26. Martha's Closet.

Minty Fresh...

It's official, Mint Vintage is one of my top vintage London hot spots. With a store on Earlham Street (not far from Covent Garden) and an e-shop at ASOS Marketplace, there are two ways to shop their incredible collection of both men's and women's vintage threads.

Opt for 'net shopping however, and you forfeit the opportunity to explore their cavernous basement, jam packed full of bags, hats, shoes and sunglasses galore. An absolute dream come true for a vintage-aholic such as myself!

And if that wasn't enough for you, check out their blog for more info. So, here are just a few of the pre-loved pieces that caught my eye...

Beige clasp handbag, £30.

Striped blouse, £35.

Brown ankle boots, £40.

Brown box bag, £40.

Embroidered bustier top, £40.

Purple jumpsuit, £125.

Vintage Laura Ashley tweed jacket, £65.

Vintage print scarf, £12.

Multi-coloured sequin dress, £95.

Red pleated skirt, £35.

I Should Batoko...

Hello vintage lovers!

Now, as you may (or may not) know, I spend a large proportion of my time tweeting and scouring Twitter for all things vintage. So when indie fashion website Batoko started following me, I clicked on their web link straight away. And so began my new love affair.

With a great range of both true vintage and new, vintage inspired clothing, accessories and shoes, Batoko is quite simply brilliant. And with their official batoko.com blog Yes I Dress, you will never be stuck for inspiration again.

So, here are just some of my fave picks from this fabulous site. Which, lets face it, is pretty much everything! (Above, Electric Zebra sweater dress, £38.)

Old Meets New...

I've been meaning to blog about Katherine Alexander's jewellery every since I read a feature in a magazine many months ago.

Made from acrylic with a different piece of vintage jewellery attached (not glued), each cuff is totally unique. With prices starting at around £237, this look doesn't come cheap. But when you consider that you're getting a handmade, one of a kind piece, don't you think it's kinda worth it? No? Well, feast your eyes on these beauties...
