This will be a lot like stepping back in time 200 years. Or maybe just like visiting your stylish great Granny on a Sunday afternoon for tea and scones. Either way, nice. Think antiques, vintage fashion, textiles and accessories. Classic fashion photographs. French linens. Antique jewels. Umbrellas and parosols.

Red Cross Vintage Fashion
Until yesterday, the best Red Cross I had ever been to was in Cambrai. Records, brogues, nanna cardigans, dresses, oversized shirts, Scrabble sets, cropped silver jackets - an absolute treasure trove of goodies at bargain basement prices. It was the best Red Cross ever. Until yesterday.
Yep, the Red Cross' latest offering on Rundle Street is pretty darn impressive.
Red Ruby Vintage
One of my favourite scenes in any film, ever, is in Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette. That scene where it's her birthday party and they're all having a gay old time, partying on into the morning until they finally watch the sun rise over the grounds.
What makes it so great is not so much the big hair and the period clothing, nor Kirsten Dunst and Jason Schwartzman, and not even the idea of swilling real French champagne long into the night as one runs rampant through Versailles.

Seasons are a changing. Before you know it you'll be wearing things like coats, drinking hot chocolate, and getting fatter by the minute. That's cool, it's nearly winter, you can let yourself go a little. But in the lead up to earl grey and snuggles by the Sunbeam portable heater, it's good to be prepared.

Vintage Lover Online
‘Howling Hearts' is the latest addition to the ever growing Vintage Lover Empire. Sure, online vintage stores are a dime a dozen, but then there are those that do it justice...
Rather than throwing pieces of clothing up on eBay all higgledy-piggledy, crushed and strewn on a coat hanger, the talented Jaharn Giles, brains and beauty behind Vintage Lover Online shows how it's done.

Perky perky sales shop staff really do suck the big one. I could do without the ones that turn their noses up at me, but even worse are the ones that get all up in ya grill with their prying questions: Where'd you get your shoes from? What you up to this weekend? Have you got the day off today? Where do you work? What size are you? Want to try it on? Ahh leave me alone.
Retro Velo
A little while ago I found an old Italian bicycle for sale locally. It was a beautiful Olmo cafe racer with chrome lugs, Campagnolo gear, and gorgeous fenders for about $500. It was possibly the most beautiful bike I'd seen, there was no carbon fibre to be seen and I would have frolicked through the streets on it with the cheesiest of grins pretending I was laning it up in Amsterdam or weaving through the alleys of Turin.
