Would you look at the time? I’m going back to 1892 to tell you all another story about a certain late King. It’s quite the interesting tale. Welcome to Two Temple Place… Two Temple place is a gothic mansion, situated on the Victoria Embankment of the River Thames. It was built for William Waldorf Astor…

Vintage tattooing x 2015
Hi everyone! Happy New Year to you all! It’s far too late to be saying that, but since haven’t posted since before Christmas, then it still applies. Hope you all had the most smashing holidays and haven’t been suffering too much being back at work, as I have. In my last post, I showed off…
The (no) Tweed Run 2014
I might as well give up taking my camera to the Tweed Run as I barely took it out of my bag this year, being far too busy enjoying myself (just as I should be). Not that it matters because you are absolutely guaranteed to snapped dozens of times as we all make our way…
Gadding about in gardens
Here’s a fairly straightforward outfit post for your eyes! I took my mum to east London for a fun afternoon of viewing flats and eating food (ie the real fun bit). We had some time to kill before the flat viewings so we ambled around Geffrye Museum in Shoreditch. It’s a fab place which has…
Roll up to the Ric Rac Club!
A couple of weeks ago, the other two Vintage Mafia girls and I put on another Ric Rac Club. This time, not to be outdone by our previous efforts, it had a circus theme! We left our costumes to the very last possible minute as we were all too busy organising to think about them……
Vintage London: Shopping and eating!
Morning! Well, afternoon, I started writing this in the morning. I hope you are all well? I am not. I managed to shake off a chest infection I had for about a month, a week or two back, and today I woke up with a horrible cold. I think my body is trying to kill…
Vintage London: Eating, drinking & dress up
Oh hi! How are you? You’re looking fabulous. It must be because the sun’s out in the UK and everyone looks so much sexier all of a sudden. I still have lots of things to tell you about that I’ve already done but before I do, I have two awesome things to tell you about…
Vintage London – Guided Walks with Russell Nash
A couple of weeks ago, I went on a walking tour given by a friend of mine, Russell Nash (or Guide Russell as he is known professionally). It was fab. I realise I might be slightly biased but really and truly, it was fascinating and I want to recommend it to everyone, tourist and resident,…
Mussel Up
London is a smorgasbord of pop-up food ventures at the moment. I’ve been to a few, but my favourite so far has been Mussel Men. I heard about them ages ago, then got contacted by them out of the blue for something business-related. I’ve been trying to get down to actually sample the shellfish delights…
Vintage London: The Tea House Theatre
Well… I was on a roll for a while there, wasn’t I? And then it seems inspiration and motivation temporarily deserted me! I do have so much to post about and barely a minute in the day to do so. But as it’s Friday afternoon and I want to write about lovely things, let me…
