I heard all about The Style Fair from my friend Rosanna over on the Silverbrogues blog. Rosanna and her friend Jude were taking a table at the August fair to sell their own gently used clothing, footwear and accessories. So I decided to go along to support her stall and see what The Style Fair was all about. Overall, I was impressed. It's a lot more civilised than a car boot and there are definitely some lovely bargains to be had. In the end, I bought two items from Rosanna. First up, meet my new pumps!
I just loved the colour in these and knew they would come in handy in autumn. They are covered in a burgundy taffeta material and have gold metallic, pale pink and a green/blue detail going on too. Really unique and perfect for wearing with my pale pink lace peplum top today.

..and here's a close up of my current favourite (it keeps changing) necklace from the new range I'm stocking in the shop - the Pluck & Devour Glitter Pegasus in Pink with Swarovski crystal tear-drop:
I bought one other item from Rosanna or the Style Fair - a gorgeous putty/mushroom coloured handbag. Perfect neutral bag for autumn winter and in a practical bowling bag style - with a long strap as well as grab handles. I've not used it yet but you can check it out in this photo from the day of the fair!

Would I go to the Style Fair again? Definitely - but next time, I may very well have my own stall...watch this space!
