Tell Me a Story

by Jen on Sunday, March 27, 2011



How many of us pick up a vintage piece and wonder what fantastic story lies behind it? I feel that these advertisements for Oxfam perfectly encapsulate one of the greatest thrills and excitements that every secondhand/vintage shopper gets to experience: Who wore it before me? What was her life like? And where is she now?

Although we will probably never discover the life that the previous owner had, or the fact that the real story was probably not quite so glamorous, these little dreamed up tidbits really make the pieces we find that much more special, don't they?

Hope you are all having a lovely weekend!
