Those Were the Days

Browsing through the rails of vintage clothing in the independent boutique Those Were the Days is comparable to turning through the pages of fashion history. Fifties floral prom dresses, colour block shifts from the sixties, seventies maxi dresses and oversized eighties sweatshirts, plus a sprinkling of pieces from the thirties and forties - every decade is eagerly acknowledged.

Ready to rock

There is nothing quite like a bit of rock on a Sunday night. The American band, Rival Sons, took to the stage at the HMV Picture House last night and although I wasn't too familiar with their songs, I thought they were brilliant. They exuded talent and charisma - and the crowd were lapping it up.

Nosing around

                     

At 7 o'clock last night, my boyfriend and I decided to treat ourselves to an impromptu dinner at The Roamin' Nose. I threw on my trusty geometric trousers from Zara and paired them with a burgundy and grey spotted knit (I do love a good print clash) and electric blue high heels from H&M.
