Hello and Happy New Year to our Gorgwah and divine Vintage chums! Apologies for the lack of Blogginess....... thats been due to the amount of new things we have added in to our fabulous magpies den of girly ecleticness.......it has taken ages to process the lovely things we have in store now! Our first resolution is to keep the Blog up to date.....and then to take heed of the old adage 'In with new and out with the old!' Sounds harsh and not very green ...but really its our first yearly fashion Retrospective! We've taken a look at some bits and pieces that need to move now, to make space for the groaning new seasons's pretty things that are just waiting in the wings for their breathtaking appearance!....... so we just HAVE to have our first fabulous SALE........ to clear some hangers..............Hurrah...... So why not pop in and grab a fantastic Vintage Shop bargain
