Christmas Candy Stripes

December 9, 2019 · 3 Comments

When it comes to this time of year I always feel pretty inadequate as a blogger. I see all of the beautiful Christmas photos everyone has up and can’t help but feel a little left out that I’m not sipping gluhwein or posing alongside a roaring log fire with a freshly decorated fir tree next…

Mixing vintage repro & high street

November 30, 2019 · 1 Comment

I don’t think it’s necessary to wear head to toe vintage or repro to achieve a vintage look. Although, I’ve never exactly been part of the vintage mafia (aka the vintage fashion police) so I’m probably not actually the best person to ask…One thing I’ll freely admit to though is being restrictive in what I…

Philodendron

October 24, 2019 · 4 Comments

Not sure what’s going on this season but for the first time ever all of the high street stores seem to be delivering the goods. I’ve always been very open about my dislike for modern fashion (sorry not sorry) so I did not see this coming. Suddenly pieces that have a vintage appropriate look are…

Whimsical Wisteria

October 5, 2019 · Leave a Comment

I was thinking recently about how many things I own in burgundy, and the answer is; quite a lot. It’s just such a striking shade! When Collectif released the Giannina Swing Dress for their A/W19 collection I of course couldn’t resist picking the burgundy. Although it also comes in a lovely shade of green –…

Gingham & Strawberries

August 13, 2019 · 4 Comments

I’ve spent a good deal of time admiring vintage basket purses from the 40s & 50s in antiques stores, but every time I thought about getting one, I thought; oh I could easily make something like it. And for half the price too…I mean yes, it’s not as special as the real thing, but close…

Big bows, little bows, lots of bows!

August 6, 2019 · 1 Comment

Well hello August! No more holding out hope that I might get a chance to post some winter outfits on here, back to summer outfits again! Still, it was nice to take photos with colourful leaves while I had the chance…and now we’re back to pretty flowers. But how can I complain, look at these…

Marlene Monochrome

The first piece that I ever bought from The Seamstress of Bloomsbury was this blouse, about four or five years ago. I admit, I don’t wear a lot of separates, it’s true. That’s because it isn’t as often that I find ones that I like as much as a dress, which is obviously easy to…

The Emblem of Our Land

July 12, 2019 · 1 Comment

I didn’t expect to be blogging anything that I had planned for my spring/summer wardrobe right during what is meant to be the coldest month of winter – yet here we are. Winter in Queensland is weird. Some days it feels like summer is back. And then it’s cold again. So if you were expecting…

Green Moonshine

Well, it seems like there’s no shortage of beautiful maple leaves this year. So as you can see I’ve been taking full advantage of that and taking photos with every pretty tree I come across. Sorry not sorry! Among the beautiful dresses that The Seamstress of Bloomsbury recently added to their collection, is the Lucy…

Deco Caplet Dress

June 7, 2019 · 2 Comments

When I open my wardrobe at this time of year there’s a few specific colours and prints that dominate. Burgundy being one of them, and the others being black and brown/mustard. With some dark florals and plaid here and there as well. Yes, fairly predictable and not exactly riveting but this seems to be what…

A vintage lover from Brisbane. I am passionately nostalgic for decades before my time. I enjoy recreating looks inspired by the past wearing both vintage and vintage reproduction clothing. My blog focuses on the styles of the art deco period and features both authentic vintage pieces from the 1920s, 30s & 40s, as well as modern reproductions of clothing from these eras. My blog explores creating modern every day looks with vintage elements. If you would like to say hello get in touch with me through harlow@harlowdarling.com.
