May Moons Ago..

... I studied Fine Art & Textiles, my love for crafts has never left me. There fore as someone that juggles working from home, school run and family schnauzer walking none of which leaves me with much time for mooching the country in search of interesting finds... so finding 'Wolf & Gypsy Vintage' on Instagram has been amazing. The standard of vintage clothing and their obvious love of all things beautiful works perfectly for photographing / Instagra-ing / me purchasing!

Oh and did I also mention, they are super sweet and helpful!

Images...

... I have a love / hate thing with social media (which is odd as I write a blog - I know.) but I do - some forms of social media actually scare me a little.

Any social media that involves words as the preliminary or main source of focus - for me - has made me feel at times negative / unhappy / uncomfortable.

However - Instagram - is one form of social media I enjoy. I love people's images. I love the fact that you don't need to actually explain / have a title / or any words but when people use words and comments it all seems so much more positive. It's a community of people who like images (and sometimes words).

For example one of my new found vintage havens is in Brighton. On a weekly basis there isn't a chance of popping in but with the help of Instagram I can like / comment on an item and find out more information about it. However what's really fab is that you don't have to buy - it isn't actually about advertising. It's about show casing / admiring / being inspired.
