The light blue dress, is it a shift style dress from the 60s? I love the fascinator, very cute.

I'm not really sure what year it belongs to, I just loved it!

Hubbs just let me purchase this beauty, which I have been dreaming of for months! The silk Crepe de Chine dress from J. Peterman.

And for a benefit we're going to at the end of the month, these adorable retro t-straps from eBay.

Splurged £250 on 2 suits yesterday. Both in mint condition and a really good fit though so I'm hoping I can convince myself it was a justifiable amount to spend!

I shall help you justify:)

They look fantastic, pristine and wonderfully classic! You will be able to wear them forever and make them your own heirlooms.

I don't blame you one bit for buying them. Congrats!

It looks like they are a brand called Fahrenheit? That's what the seller says they are (I'll let you know for sure once I have them in my hot little hand). Looks like they are probably a vintage repro or inspired line.

I'd been looking for a good black suit for ages (they are worth twice as much because you can wear both halves of the suit with other outfits!) and so to find 2 in one day, both in mint condition like that... I just couldn't resist! the best part about it was that in the little shop I got them from they have loads of stock down in their basement stockroom and they let me go down and rummage around - it was fantastic - just like those vintage dreams you have (I'm sure I'm not the only one who has those, right?!).

I bought a limited edition fragrance by Marc Jacobs (first perfume my boyfriend has EVER liked on me, and we've been together nearly 4 years). Problem: it's a light fragrance, I believe an EDT, so it doesn't wear too long, but the bottle's too huge to carry around. Solution:

Rhinestone atomizer, 99 cents. Fun!

I'm forever having those "vintage dreams"! They are always so vivid - usually I am walking around a vintage market and every stall is full to the brim with beautiful vintage suits and dresses and don't get me started on the costume jewellery!!!!!!!!

Those are really beautiful suits MissHannah - they look terrific on you! :)

I just bought this dress a few moments ago:

What store is this? I would love to go next time I'm home visiting my parents in London.
