Meeeee

Okay so I should probably introduce myself. I'm Emily, I'm 21, and I'm an art student, so naturally I love vintage ;) Here's a photo of me trying on some of the stock for my shop.


I simply love this dress, it's so flattering! It's soon to be for sale on my shop, so keep your eyes peeled!

How cool is this?!

Right, so this has extremely little to do with the whole 'vintage' theme of my blog, other than the fact it's quite an old video. I don't care. It's awesome. It's an amazing song and it's actually really funny! This is what English apparently sounds like to foreign speakers.

Enjoy...

My Vintage Shop!

Over the past few months my aim has been to put together a shop that sells affordable, good quality vintage items. Please have a browse! http://www.etsy.com/shop/ImperialSwing?ref=si_shop

Any feedback and suggestions are appreciated. Also, watch this space as I'm always uploading new stuff!

Now the initial set up stage is out of the way, I intend to post on here, and on twitter, muuuch more often! My username on twitter is ImperialSwing if anyone out there wants to add me :)

Pinup girl bikinis!

I literally want to own everything on pinupgirlclothing.com. Here's a sample of some of their beautiful vintage inspired bikinis! The top design is my favourite and is also available in black, green, red, yellow and gold.

Madonna in the eighties

I never realised quite how stunning Madonna was in her youth.







Loving the excessive jewellery, leather biker gloves and rosary beads in these pictures. I think these images really highlight just how on trend black/white clothing was in the eighties. One thing needs to be said here, however - style icon or not, that "boy toy" belt is inexcusable! Haha.

Wartime Dancing


Such an energetic form of dancing! How much fun would it be to learn to do this?!

Thanks to for the upload. I can't stop watching!
