One Day At The Vintage Fair

Yesterday was a fun day, me and the wonderful Tiz went to Vintage. La Moda Che Vive Due Volte, a vintage fair we were planning to attend since august! We always talk about the lack of real vintage markets and stores here, so we were pretty excited to go.


It was lot of fun and lot of nice things to see...






this coat was lovely!







Lots of designer vintage items too



look at these incredible Vuitton luggages below...the big one was 2600€! If you enlarge the picture you can see it has old tags from luxury hotels on it: I bet the previous owner made some great journeys...


The prices were generally a bit on the high side, but of course we managed to find something nice to buy.
After trying on several pairs on nice glasses...



Tiz found a beautiful hat to add to her collection


and I fell in love with a pair of vintage glasses


and a really interesting jacket, which curiously is not vintage, but it's from an indipendent italian brand we never heard of before. A post about it will come soon!

WOW - vintage heaven! I had no idea there were such fairs. Are prices reasonable? I shall keep my ears and eyes open for one in Tokyo. We have great vintage shops here but they tend to be quite pricey. Thanks for sharing your fun!

@ Tokyo Girl: it was my first time at a vintage fair too and now I can't wait for a new one! Prices were definitely high, but vintage in Italy is sadly often overpriced...you must be lucky to find some affordable gem :-)

Looks like so much fun! I'll be moving to Italy in December. Was this fair near Naples? By the way, your blog is so much fun and be coming back for a visit real soon!

@ Liza: Thank you! No, the fair was in Forlì which is about 550 Km north than Naples... I'm sure you'll enjoy Italy :-)
