Out and about....Cherries, the Bride and the Queen

From Fashionistable
Isabella is originally from Stuttgart but has lived in the UK for 9 years now. She makes shoes for Natacha Marro who was exhibiting at the festival. Her style inspiration comes from taking a little bit of vintage, high st and designer mixing it all up and making something new. Her very ADR inspired hat was made from something she found on a props website, dress is vintage and her shoes were bought in Berlin. Her surprise was that she loves Elephants.

From Fashionistable
Kate the bride and Sheena her maid of honor. This was a very original hen day out for the girls. Kate is getting married next month and is having a vintage country wedding. She was hoping to glean some hair styling tips from the events at the festival. She could also try You Tube like my ladies yesterday. Sheena works for Tommy Hilfiger and wears the brand for work. She loves fashion and said today was a great excuse to take it to another level. Kate's surprise for us is that she was Tinkerbell at Euro Disney for a while and Sheena told me her legs are longer than her dad's and he is 6ft.

From Fashionistable
Queen V has lived a very colourful life. She has just come back from OZ where she worked as a hairdresser (by trade), pole dancer and cocktail waitress. It was the girls in the salon who named her Queen V and now that she is a burlesque performer it became the perfect stage name too. She is putting the finishing touches to a new routine with a friend and together they are The Dolls of Decadence and will be preforming at Volupte in the near future. At the festival she was working for exhibiting lingerie for Kiss Me Deadly.

I am so thoroughly enjoying this Vintage Festival through your lens! Queen V is fantastic! The first lady reminds me of Minnie Mouse, but that is apt because that look is from that period! xxxx
