80's Style Inspiration; Pretty In Pink

A post for our shoppers who love the fabulous tack and shoulder pads of the eighties. We love the fantastically ugly but great jackets that the boys wear and are planning on adding to our clip on earring collection at the next vintage threads fair - they'd go down a treat in the Northern Quarter.

Some of the best bits!


After a few months off Vintage Threads came back and it did so in style. The new venue of The Circle Club was cosy and comfortable, perfect for a relaxing days shopping. Here are some of the best bits that were available for the girl. There is always something for someone no matter what their tastes. Whether you want to be ladylike or grungy you will be able to find yourself an affordable treat!

My Fair Lady -The Embassy ball

After the last post I thought I would stay with the theme of stylish films and on that theme I couldn't not post this clip of Audrey in My Fair Lady. The glorious gowns and handsome men... People just don't dress up like they used to!

Liza! Style Icon!

Liza preformed at the Bridgewater Hall on Monday and although I didn't get to see her preform, I've heard that she was great. As a fashion lover my favourite thing about Liza is her incredible style in the film Cabaret. She won an oscar for this film - I sometimes think that her many marriages and over the top lifestyle overshadow the fact she is pretty talented lady.
Here is the official trailer for Cabaret, which is a great film and a must watch for any vintage fashion lover.

Lady Gaga in vintage Versace

We are obsessed with Lady Gaga's style at the moment, even more than we ever have been! She has been given the run of the Versace archives and has been donning the famous prints and studs with magnificent over the top effects - wowzers. We may not be able to wear it all at once like Gaga but we definitely wouldn't mind having a few of the items in our wardrobe!
