This week, I visited A Vintage Affair in Morgan Arcade. I could have spent hours browsing around this quirky shop which spans two floors and is jam-packed with beautiful vintage dresses, jewellery, bags and accessories. The shop also sells a wide selection of vintage crockery, books, ornaments, pictures and trinkets all displayed in imaginative and interesting ways on old white washed dressers or in picnic baskets and old fashioned suitcases.
Everywhere you turn, there is something eye-catching and interesting, beautifully displayed without being cluttered or overwhelming. A Vintage Affair stocks a whole range of clothes throughout the eras from 1950’s prom dresses and coats to 1960’s suits and even Edwardian wedding dresses. They also stock a decent range of men’s clothes on the first floor. The clothes are of genuinely good quality and are not of that garish un-wearable kind you sometimes find in vintage shops.
If you’re the kind of person who loves vintage clothing, trinkets and pearls, tea parties and lace and avidly watches period dramas and the likes of Mad Men, you will definitely love this shop. Even if it’s just something different, unique and quirky you’re after, A Vintage Affair is absolutely worth a visit.
I completely fell in love with this two-piece suit:
