THIRST FOUR
Hidden little gems.


After realising how very little I knew about Nottingham, it was time for a little adventure.

Celia's vintage store
Beautiful and intricate- jewelled Victorian neck piece 



I came across Celia's, a vintage come thrift come fancy dress store on Derby Road. Downstairs is like a walk through time from the Victorian ages to the 80's.

Don't leave me hanging...
SATCHELS

I found it extremely hard to resist buying so many things. I had to reassure myself at several points, that I didn't need another bag, or belt, or pearl necklace for that matter, to add to the already extensive collection...

The mother of all vintage dresses

...However, I would have happily given all the handbags that I posses just to own this beauty of a dress. After all, a girl can never own too many.


Daphnes Handbag- Mansfield Road



Kathleen and Lilys

I also came across Daphnes Handbag and Kathleen and Lilys, another two of Nottingham's finest vintage outlets, alongside Celia's and the vintage warehouse.
