I will hopefully add the measurements etc. on Monday evening, so for once this really does count as an official sneak preview (instead of my usual two days after-the-fact..)

Quintessentially 50s pink...
Anyone know the label \'martinique, London\'
I bought a (pretty sure it's) 70s maxi skirt today in a very pucci style velvet print. Labelled Martinique, London.
Just wondered if anyone knew it? I'll post a picture later.
:USETHUMBUP:
Vintage in distress! Yes, I know that feeling..
With things like that where it's only really fit for the rag bin as is, I usually throw caution to the wind and soak it in a very soapy/oxycleany bathtub overnight so it is at least kept flat. Then at least it's clean, and I donate it to my...
It's labelled 'Cojana Petites' Claire - I did a quick bit of investigating and I think they were a good quality London design house.
I'm pleased to report that we've had two fairly cold days, so it is getting worn!
Sorry you missed out on Maggie's coat Janine, that was a corker!
It will be interesting shooting on black though - I think I'll have to try without too much flash? I might just take her to the antiques centre for display.. or more likely she'll end up in my dining room keeping me company during the day!
As I have to say my half body thing is all well and good but I just can't sell trousers on her as she only goes to mid thigh!
Off to pick her up on Friday from the very nice seller, hopefully I can make it there and back in school hours :)...
I don't know about a living room, I could turn my whole house into one, lol! Don't think other half would be so keen...

Lincoln fair was OK sale wise, but I think I spent half of my takings on myself..
Here's a quick snap of my new coat :D
It's actually a bit darker in colour. I loved it as it's a Cojanan 'petite' so good for me at 5'4!
Failed to take any other pictures so you just get to see what I...
I think it's the word 'cheap' cut off. Not my area at all, but hopfeully someone will be able to help! Later 90s? That is a total guess, maybe it's much more recent.
