Finding Vintage Chic!
I love trawling through 2nd shops and cute little shops finding designer and vintage gems. I also love doing this in the winter from my PC. You may think of eBay of place to get rid of all of your old junk but if you look in the right place you can find vintage gems. It's fun going trough pages of potential. If you end up finding a luscious vintage find the fun is only just beginning you can style it up and even make a few artistic up-cycling changes. When its raining out log on to eBay and have some fun!
