Vintage fair delights and weekend fun

Hi Everyone,

I know another post so soon and at the start of the week to. But i felt like writing and sharing things with you hence the post. Its been a hetic few days but nice ones. Saturday my best friend and i went along to the Vintage Rag and Rummage fair in Trull near Taunton. Its 5 mins from where i live so it was great to be able to pop along. I met the lovely Lizzie who organised it from thevintagebazaar.blogspot.com  And another lovely blogger who had a gorgeous stand tedandbunny.blogspot.com where i bought some lovely items from. I bumbed into the lovely Julia from kcscourt.blogspot.com and was introduced to another lovely blogger salssnippets.blogspot.com
it was so nice to meet up and put a face to some lovely blogs ;-)

So what did i buy a few lovely things. In fact on one of these blogs is a photo of me at the fair wearing my favourite item ;-)

But this isn't it although it comes second ;-) My little 70's vintage green nightie its gorgeous and so floaty and at £3.00 how could i not bring it home....

I bought some vintage fabrics, a beautiful little pommander, a gorgeous little red rose china brooch and 2 vintage nighties and the best thing of all a blinking gorgeous..stunning vintage green hat which i love and adore ;-))

What a beauty she is i love and adore her and at £3.00 what a bargain. I have never owned or worn a hat like this but i am getting dressed up on Saturday for a special day out tell you a bit more in a mo ;-)

It was such a lovely morning and i am looking forward to the next one. In the afternoon we took miss vintage Betty out for our and her first ride we drove down to Shepton Mallet for the auto bike jumble but just before we went there was a little rain shower. Betty was so nice and clean but by the time we arrived it looked like we had all been off roading we were all plastered in mud it was quite funny really but Oh boy what a smooth ride she is it was a pleasure except my back didn't like it so we will have to get a back rest fitted. But well here she is before we drove off...

She is 30 years old and named after my dear old friend Betty who passed away 4 years ago at the age of 86, she is missed and thought about every day. And well me being a girly girly i just had to have my leathers with pink on them ;-) If you click on the photo's they will appear larger.

On Sunday it was wet in the morning but it brightened up by lunch time. Dylan was with his dad for the weekend (and Jake well he doesn't go anymore as he doesn't get on with him.) Jake hadn't left the house all week so we get in the car and head to Weston and go on the Pier and we had such a lovely few hours. We played air guitar, ice hockey, saw Robinhood in the 4d cinema which i have to say is amazing your chair moves you get wet with water and everything, had some hot donuts and a sit in the sunshine.

Jake, myself and Mr J. It was a right laugh but i was terrible at it.

It was good to get out the 3 of us, sadly the next day Jake spent most of it on the toilet but it was nice to get him out of the house for a couple of hours.

So this Saturday is my best friends birthday and we are going to the www.crikeyitsvintage.co.uk fair in Exeter and i can't wait i am very excited about it ;-)

There will be 1940's style singing by "The three Belles", Jive dancing performers, Vintage fashion show, 30 vintage traders and 15 handmade crafters, Pop up beauty parlour, Pop up cinema showing popular retro tv shows complete with retro popcorn cart, Mini tupperware party, Vintage wedding Emporium ;-) Burlesque workshop and much more. 

And what will i be wearing well my green hat for starters ;-) And i have 2 gorgeous vintage green and flower dresses coming off Ebay they should be here tomorrow i have new shoes and then i will pick from my collection of vintage handbags and im going to wear red lipstick which i never wear unless its somewhere special i just cant wait to dress up, be with my friend and be part of the vintage scene and have no cares or worries for a few hours ;-))
