Rose tinted vintage

IMPORTANT: I am currently away travelling but will be back in July and continue blogging as normal. You can follow my travels HERE

Hello there! Please make yourself comfortable and pour a cup of tea. My name is Mary and I'm just your average vintage obsessive with a particular interest in the 40's and 50's. I don't pretend to be an expert but feel free to ask me anything you fancy.
