Blue Day x
This is where vintage shines..finding the different, the now-unique, knowing it can be yours forever and best of all, no-one else will have it..which is why I am heading to the South Bank today for their Vintage Classic Car Boot Fair..and hopefully a cream cake with a large latte by the Thames. Fingers crossed I’ll meet a friend or two (Vintage Attitude!).
Autumn had hit with a vengeance yesterday – lashing rain, driving winds to blow off hats and turn umbrellas inside-out. Today? Cobalt skies and the odd friendly fluffy cloud..the Gods are truly smiling..but it’s no wonder we Brits are obsessed with the weather..
Laters, Kate x
Oh great! I must kick my Hubbie’s ass and be there SOON! Thank you for the information. South Bank, here we come! (^0^)
Going to email you my mobile no..if we can synch it – fancy meeting up?! x
Of course I love to meet you! My email is: kaori@kaorilondon.com x
Arggh – I have my mobile charging next to me – why didn’t it ring? Will call you xxx
oh vintage fairs ❤ you never know what you'll find there…always amazing. Good luck!
Took lots of photos..watch this space! But it was the poshest car boot sale I have ever been to! xxx
Oh if only I could hop a plane to England! Sounds like an absolutely lovely Saturday, enjoy!! xx
It was an unexpected and amazing day..it’s a treat when the blogging world and the real world collide..and the venue was spectacular! xxx
Enjoy your “vintage” Blue Day (and your cream cake !) and thanks for sharing your fashion adventures with us (FYI, I liked your style so much in “That video !”, that I watched it twice !!!). XX
You are so lovely!! Yesterday was such an adventure..and we even treated ourselves to tea and cakes at a very posh hotel afterwards..it was the perfect end! xxx
Couldn’t it take place next week, I could be there , as I’m driving on Friday to the U.K again. I’m sure you are going to return with some treasures.xx
Actually one of the things Kaori and I discussed was organising some sort of blogging meet up – a date in the diary..watch this space! xxx
Sounds good !!!
Oh I love London vintage–unlike anywhere else. Sounds like a great pottering day. Make the cake a big one, change the latte to tea and I’d almost hop a flight!
Do you know what? We did! tea out of very fine bone china cups..but you would have loved the event..camper vans converted into tea shops complete with bunting! It really was a delight! xxx
Sounds bliss! One of my favourite places. Hope it was a wonderful day xx
Honestly – you would have LOVED it..people dressed up, having picnics out of the backs of classic cars, I never thought I’d see a vintage Rolls at a car boot! Mind you – never had to queue for a car boot before! xxx
Ahh sounds wonderful! Xx
Def in the diary for next year..and there’s another event I read about that takes place in London..the vintage olympics or something..must re-discover and bookmark! But one day soon..we’ll get you to one xxx
Whoop! Good way to celebrate freedom when I escape quarantine xx
Mmmmm, vintage and a latte! Sound fun! That’s where I’ll be in spirit.
SUCH a fun day! Can’t wait to upload the photos..but SO many elements of joy all coming together – meeting up with Kaori, meeting up with Vintage Attitude..how would’ve thought? xxx
It was wonderful to meet you in person. I enjoyed it so much and can’t wait to do it again very soon! (^-^)
It was a JOY! In fact Kaori and I are off to sample the delights at the newly decorated hotel at St Pancras next..I’m trying to persuade Kaori that victoriana interiors are delicious! If anyone wants to join us…. xxxx
Sounds like a blissful Sunday.
Hope the party went well today. Glad you enjoyed the car bootee!….how lucky were we with the weather? …..blog meet up sounds fab idea. Xx
Did you get the rain on Sunday? Honestly – it was like a monsoon..and we were meant to be horse riding with 10 children!! I think the only time it didn’t pour was between 3-5..thank the Lord!! xxx
It poured all day here too. So very lucky on Saturday….still can’t quite believe it! Xx
Vintage, lattes and cream cakes… a lady who has her priorities in order!
Best day out needs a really good reward! xx
