Bright Young Things

I am exhausted after having decorators and plumbers in our house for a week redoing our bathroom and lounge; the lounge is now wonderfully bright, showing off my little glass and ceramic vintage finds, and the bathroom has a real art deco feel to it. But it is wonderful to have the house back in order and all the mess cleaned up!

After so much chaos and dust(and so little time for blogging), I felt the need for a little glamour, so I watched Bright Young Things, which I've never seen before. I wanted to steal all the costumes and the decor, and have a real urge for some fur (fake in my case), hats, gloves, sophisticated dresses... for now, these gorgeous 30s images will have to do.

I wonder when we lost that glamour?


What great pictures - I would like them all on my wall... just love the girls on the rock by the sea. I would definitely wear this on my trip to Cornwall (next week!) if I could!

Tomorrow I'm getting up stupidly early to go and explore Kempton Antiques Fair - I've been meaning to for ages, but I hope all the good stuff doesn't sell straight away as it's a bit of a drive for me! Wish me luck...
