And The Bride Wore Blue Sequin Shoes!

A lovely client of The Purple Bedroom, Katie, recently got married in a pair of blue sequin shoes that she purchased from the store.

She was kind enough to invite me to the wedding(presumably to see the shoes in action) but sadly I couldn’t make it. However she sent me a pic of said shoes in action. Katie looked amazing and I am happy to report that the shoes were a hit!

If we have any ‘bride to be’ ladies out there, here are a few wedding dresses on offer.

Vintage Nightwear: A History

There was a lovely post on Queens of Vintage a couple of days ago regarding the lost art of wearing beautiful nightwear.

Most of us are concerned with comfort, not beauty when it comes to sleeping attire. I myself was guilty of this until a few years ago when I found one of my mums gorgeous full length vintage nighties with a divine floral print on the bust. Whenever I slip it on I instantly feel glamorous and now I hope you can too with these little babies!

Things That Make You Go Hmmmm…

I always did like C+C Music Factory, however I digress!

For some of us this change in weather and the dreary rainy days will make you want to do one of two things. Either joyously embrace the clothing of colder weather(me) or get the last dying breaths out of summer, its colors and  attire. To this end, there is something in this post to whet everyone’s appetite.
