I'm desperate for this. All the good stuff comes out at Christmas time, and I'm always
poor due to spending all my money on Chrissy pressies for others. I'm putting this on my
"Santa List" which is currently stuck on my fridge (and getting bigger by the day).
This book is choc full of hints and tips on customising and wearing vintage.
Check out the reviews it got from Dita and Janie. *swoon*
Kelly Doust is a girl after my own heart, reinventing vintage finds to suit her personal style. Her book is a vintage vixen’s guidebook for the chic: just read, shop, recreate, and repeat. Her finds are exquisite and her reinvention tricks are inspiring and achievable for even the newest vintage shopper among us. You can’t help but get inspired by her vintage acumen.
