#VintagePledge is off to a cracking start

Oh boy, the competition is well and truly on apparently! It may only be just over a month since we launched 2016's #VintagePledge, but you guys are off to a cracking start and the proof's on Pinterest. I've picked out some of my favourite makes below and doing so filled me with excitement for what's to come during the rest of the year! 


Kirsten's 1930s-inspired outfit for an Art Deco Weekend is utter perfection in its simplicity.


This slinky slip by Vintage On Tap is so sensuous and feminine!


A lot of planning went into Jane's topper, which perfectly reflects her chic sense of style.


Allie's 1960s coat is a real show-stopper in every sense...that colour, the bow, its contemporary-looking lines!


From one 1970s pattern Liza Mae has created not one, but three, awesome tops.

Are you suitably impressed? I ruddy hope so!

Make sure you check out #VintagePledge and sign up for some fun July activity and end-of-year prizes!

    Love the grey and white dress in the 30s style and the red 60s style coat. Those are definitely pieces I could wear with great enjoyment. The tops are great too. Cheers, Michele

    I love how these very different outfits are accidentally color coordinating, in addition to being from vintage patterns. So neat to see how vintage works in the real world. I'm delighted to be included here and excited to see what comes next from everyone!
