We so love your Sixties style, Vintage Queen no 61

Our adorable and amazing Vintage Queen number 61 is in love with the Sixties. Whether it’s turning her flat into a Mad Men style pad, planning her own period-themed wedding or just looking plain gorgeous every day, this passionate vintage vixen really highlights the best her favourite decade has to offer.

I’m Mia, I live in London town and I spend far too much of my free time scouring eBay, car boot sales, charity shops and markets for vintage dresses. For most girls it’s a straight choice – bags or shoes – but for me it’s all about the dresses, I can’t resist a psychedelic mini, a pretty prom or a ditsy teadress.

I guess my fascination with vintage started, like most girls, with my mum’s old clothes. I must have spent hours digging about in the back of her wardrobe and prancing around in Seventies maxi dresses and mini skirts which were twice my size. My favourite item was always her brown suede fitted jacket with faux fur collar and cuffs, which I was allowed to borrow on special occasions.

    Great stuff – I’m all for recycling; how sad to think that so much good stuff ends up in landfill! Does anyone know the name of Mia’s band as the link is not working?
