The Vintage Emporium


After a boring morning at uni, me and my boyfriend went out for a nice lunch and a look around the shops, including The Vintage Emporium in a town near mine. You would all love it, it is vintage heaven! We didn't buy anything as it's quite overpriced, and I find that most of the stuff can be found in a charity shop, but its nice to see it all together as it's all displayed so nicely and every little section is decorated differently. Take a look at some of the photos I took (I had to ask for permission first!):





 Don't you just want it all?!




 My boy, charity/vintage shops are not his thing, he kept moaning that it stunk and was overpriced. He wanted this grandad flat cap but it was like £10, a lot since I can find one at a boot sale for about 50p!
 My favourite section, there were so many cool bits!
 I loved the fox jumper but it was a bit pricey at about £28!!
 Fur coat heaven!
 Real fox shawls :(



 The adorable little tea cafe! I love how old and rotten the building looks but it's just oh so vintage and cute!

 All the furniture was mismatching!


We then went into the town centre and had a look round the charity shops and I bought a few bits of make-up as Superdrug has a 3 for 2 offer on all cosmetics. I got some Barry M lipsticks and a mascara which gave me 200 points on my Beautycard = £2 off my next purchase! Every little helps. Then we went for lunch at Wagamama - it was my first time there ever! It was delicious however I wouldn't rank it as one of my favourite restaurants, I found the main meal quite bland and got a bit boring as there was so much of it. I like to have lots of different foods and flavours for my meals as I do get bored of the same taste!

I got this cute Banana Republic leopard print cardi from a charity shop for just £3.75, quite cheap considering it is quite a wealthy town and often the charity shops are very over priced!


My ASOS delivery also came in the post! It's currently 25% off for students (with an NUS card) so I couldn't really say no!

 Beetlejuice shirt - £18, and gold cross sheer shirt - £35
 Yin Yang t-shirt - £6, turban - £9.50, burgundy River Island jeans - £30, aztec leggings - £12

Have a nice evening :)

engaged in Replica handbags attempts to create flying renditions of the Sopwith, but Kozura is convinced his is the most honest Replica Watches because it is a “reproduction” and not a “replica swiss watches” the latter of which allows Rolex Daytona more for the substitution of non-authentic parts.Kozura’s plane actually includes handbag replica what’s known as a “swiss replica watches” culled from a Sopwith Camel whose serial number was Replica watches UK B2337. And according.
