YAY A SALE

Just when i was starting to think i might not make another sale on my Etsy for a while. I woke up to a suprise sale of one of my Mappin and Webb handbags. I'm so happy but also sad to part with it. The bags mean a lot to me as i am a descendant of the Mappin family. I only decided to part with them as they've been sat in the wardrobe gathering dust. Not the best place for such lovely bags. I decided I'd rather someone who's going to hopefully show off the bags have them. So in honour of that here's a few of the other vintage handbags on offer around etsy. With my other Mappin and Webb one thrown in for good measure. Click the pictures to visit the shops these bags are for sale in.

YOU GOT DESIGNER SHADES JUST TO HIDE YOUR FACE

I knoooow i keep banging on and on about summer but its seriously sunny here in Yorkshire, England so i can't help it. My first etsy sale was a pair of 70's seriously oversized shades. So i thought in aid of all the sun i'd show you some other amazing vintage pairs on Etsy. The good thing about buying a vintage pair and not a ''vintage style'' pair is you're not likely to see anyone else in the same ones. If there's one thing that bugs me about summer it's bumping into another 40 people in the same ''vintage'' Primark sunglasses as the ones you're wearing. Plus with vintage there is never a shortage of styles to choose from. Catseye to aviators. Plus you can buy yourself a gorgeous designer pair for £100's or a just as amazing pair for £10. It all depends on what you're after.
