Judy's Affordable Vintage Fair

So I realised that I am awfully delayed with putting up my posts, which I do apologise for! Being back in Uni, it's a little difficult to juggle so many different things. Anyway, I have just returned home having spent a lovely couple of hours with Mia and Catt at Judy's Affordable Vintage Fair at Cardiff's Student Union. I always love going to Judy's fairs as they always have the best selection of vintage buys from homeware to jewelry and even had a cute seating area for tea and cupcakes!

There were so many different stalls from lots of new independent vintage sellers that we had to make 4 trips around the stalls in order to take everything in! The variety was overwhelming! I managed to catch up with the lovely ladies at Rose Tinted vintage (who always have the most amazing dresses at the best prices!), they're always my favourite ladies for vintage and always have the cutest bags! 

I was surprised and overwhelmed by the age ranges of the shoppers at the fair. There were young children with their parents, young teens to adults, it was really lovely. Catching up with Jo and Danielle from Rose Tinted we were discussing how Cardiff has a overwhelming support network of vintage buyers and shoppers but not many people know about the events. It seems to be a common passion for most fashion shoppers in  Cardiff but not many know of the events. So I'm hoping that my work with BeatReview.com I can hopefully bring more awareness to these events and keep everyone in the know! 

Here are just a few photos I took at the fair:











Overall, a lovely morning of vintage, fun, tea and cakes! Looking forward to the next fair!

Also, if anyone knows of any vintage/fashion events then please let me know on alex.gravell@gmail.com
