Pre Christmas Sale on Vintage Clothing & Accessories for Men and Women

Just to help out my lovely customers I am doing a little festive 20% off sale until 14th December, so you can buy your loved ones or yourself something gorgeous and vintage. http://www.vampalicious.co.uk I want to do a clear out because I've picked up some lovely new stock, such as this amazing #WW2 #1940s embroidered hand tailored vintage housecoat, gown, or just a delightfully pretty dress, the lining was made with parachute silk and the main dress made from an antique silk piano shawl and silk velvet - it is exquisite and got a lot of attention at the vintage fair I did today in Somerton.
