Are you coming at the end of this year for NZ summer or for the UK summer coming up soon? I will probably be able to wrangle a car and we could go on a bit of an adventure.Georgia Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11802835174547914151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-386850766587108493.post-34252105515970510812012-05-21T21:10:42.800+12:002012-05-21T21:10:42.800+12:00Lovely look!

I am seriously in awe of your vintage collection and super jealous too, kudos to you for collecting such wonderful pieces. Also, you have to tell me all your secrets! I'm returning to the motherland on holiday this summer/winter, and even though London has great charity shops I'd love to trawl Wellington's collection too, but I have no idea where to look. So, pretty please with a cherry on top? You are a fountain of charity shop/vintage knowledge (in a completely non-creepy metaphorical way).Ron McQuadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13629258114132718414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-386850766587108493.post-50934121636280583282012-05-04T06:39:50.515+12:002012-05-04T06:39:50.515+12:00cute dress and coat. those pieces seem to be made ...cute dress and coat. those pieces seem to be made for each other...<br /><br />http://wardrobexperience.blogspot.deMs. Falconhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02131781752240288828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-386850766587108493.post-8223813338698303002012-05-02T10:41:35.916+12:002012-05-02T10:41:35.916+12:00Nooo I LOVE this.

Is there really such a thing as too twee? If there is, I don't think your outfit is it. Maybe if you added 12 bows that would make it too twee. I did the shampoo free thing for a while a few years ago but then I got sick of it for reasons I can't quite remember.Camelia Crinolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13255747263262874628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-386850766587108493.post-73890962264669204182012-04-30T15:40:43.833+12:002012-04-30T15:40:43.833+12:00Such an amazing dress Georgia! xSuch an amazing dress Georgia! xJo - Lost in the Hazehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01973125973556821692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-386850766587108493.post-59355008262193073032012-04-30T15:06:10.892+12:002012-04-30T15:06:10.892+12:00I actually did the whole no-poo thing a few years ...I actually did the whole no-poo thing a few years ago but with bad results. I ended up having residue; my hairdresser was ready to kill me because it wasn't helping my color and she had to do a few rounds of clarifying shampoo to get it out and deep condition it. I also found I was too lazy to mix up the baking soda solution regularly; it was easier to just use shampoo. I *did* find out that I only really need to wash my hair every 4 days or so with regular shampoo though. For a while I was using the Genuine African Black Formula shampoo, which is more gentle than regular shampoo. So at least it was worth it to find that out.jesse.anne.ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14875750144950761412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-386850766587108493.post-57931991559284097792012-04-30T03:26:34.581+12:002012-04-30T03:26:34.581+12:00OOh such a pretty print!

That dress is amaaazing though!! My hair has been an unhealthy disaster lately...had never considered going shampooless before but I'm willing to try anything if it will improve its overall condition so thanks for the tip :)TheHeadlessMannequinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00748174828235779093noreply@blogger.com
