Evil hearted you by The Yardbirds- A story of vintage clothing

Evil hearted you by the Yardbirds

Oh my, how much I love the 60s both in music and in fashion! Amazing dresses and amazing bands. It was the era of the beginning of revolutions...Black People fought for equality, women started working properly, rock 'n' roll, the shooting of a President and so many more...

But it is too difficult to find this type of clothing nowadays. Thank God there are so many vintage stores. However, you can't always be lucky finding something good. You have to go there again and again. You might find something that you like but not fitting you or maybe finding nothing at all. But it doesn't matter. Walking and going inside vintage stores is one of my favourite things to do. All the searching and the anticipation and even if you don't find anything you still have a chance to look to other stores near by like record stores where you can find a scarce cd or vinyl...

One of the best places is near Berwick street in London (because there are also several record stores)...so Soho won't dissapoint you. You also have the solution of visiting Camden Town and even if you don't find a thing you can always enjoy a book along with a coffee and great music in these places.

In Glasgow there are also plenty of Vintage Stores both In West End and in the City Centre...My fav are: Starry Starry Night, Vintage Guru, Vintage Glasgow both located in West End and Mr Ben's in King's Court in the City Centre (next to Mono or opposite the 13th Note)... So today I am not going to make an outfit but I will present you three of my dresses that I found in these places and my advice to not snob these lovely overwhelming stores...


So girls...get your swing and go to find your lovely vintage dress...
