So back to the blog....

Do you already know Sarah? This london girl with a great passion for vintage who decided to set up a shop in her own home. Her home, round the corner from Portobello Market where she has a stall, is now overflowing with treasures and delights and she welcomes visitors with tea and cakes.

authentic retro wedding

No, these are not old pictures, but made a few days ago, here in Italy by the very talented Libero Api.' The ufficial photographer' of the Summer Jamboree made these incredible beautiful images.
Like you can see everything and everybody is in perfect 30's-40's style. Incredible.
She is so beautiful, her dress is a dream.



I adore this fabulous wedding reportage by Libero.
They met eachother (the photographer and this young couple) at the Summer Jamboree. She has always been a muse for his pictures during the festival and so they decided to have him at their wedding! And like you can see...the result is excellent!








So, if you desire a reportage like this on THE day of your life, you can find him here!
Greetz and have a good weekend!

stockings!

Photo: The golden age of couture

Lovely, sweet, funny, sexy, retrò..I think that wearing beautiful stockings is very important for a lady. As you can see in this fabulous picture of the '50's Mr.Fath already had a special attention for these stockings.

Today watching the'glamour' of october I saw these lovely bow tights! First I thought that the bows were attached at the shoes but I was wrong! aren't these lovely?By Bebaroque


On their website you can see a lot of other funny and original tights.


These are fantastic!



pics here
Otherwise, for those who don't like wearing stockings, there is this old and still used solution: Leg make-up!
This was a good way in the 40's, when during the war finding stockings was very difficult.
