The Mad March Special at Vintage Village, Stockport

The Lady thoroughly enjoyed her fourth VV appearance, which was without a doubt her most favourite yet. With a much less frenetic atmosphere than last month’s veritable stampede, there was a definite laid-back, easy-going Sunday vibe. For those that didn’t manage to get down to Stockport’s gorgeous market hall, there’s a teaser above in the form of a photo of this month’s L, B! stall.  For further kick-yourself for not going fodder, have a mooch through the bountiful amount of Facebook albums that have sprouted up following Sunday’s vintage scrummage: the official VV album, my own selection, the disgustingly gorgeous and talented (and lovely despite it, SO unfair) Anne Louise Kershaw’s uber-professional shots (take a peek at her ace blog too, while you’re at it – here’s her rather flattering review of VV) and the adorable Grumbi’s pictures too. It was a thoroughly eventful fair too; what with being filmed by the charming family-run Little Wonder Company, finally meeting various lovely Twit-friends from Twitter in Real Life and being flooded with interest for one of my floral frocks (just like buses, buyers come in threes or even fours, all falling in love with the same dress).  We’ve already started plotting new schemes for next month!

 

Still found time to discover these little beauties though, on the fab Tin Trunk stall..

(no apology will be made for my gratuitous Tyrant shot here, who else could model it so charmingly?)

    “Lady Behave” seems a very appropriate response to your lovely blog upload :O) I am blushing deeply from your very, very kind words. I’m glad you like the shots I took, your pictures too are fantastic, and I am still wearing the beautiful feather fascinator you made (and will be for the next month at least, in fact it goes very nicely with my now blushing cheeks).

    Your stall was beautiful, in fact the fascinator I got in in the picture you’ve uploaded here. I like the mask and bow tie you purchased, very dashing.

    Wasn’t it a fantastic event, can’t wait for the next one.

    Love that Tyrant shot! Your little bruiser is working it! This is a great account of the day, and I must add my admiration to yours for Anne Louise Kershaw’s fab photos.
