Home sweet home...


We returned to our native shores this Saturday for the infamous Sheffield Vintage Fair. And we were not disappointed. You flocked in your hundreds to check out the exciting vintage finds we had on offer at The Basement. Check out some of our pics...


Flock Boutique, a recent addition to the Sheffield Vintage Fair family, showcased their pristine lace dresses, perfectly capturing this season’s underwear-as-outerwear trend. Also new to the fair were various delicious cupcake flavours such as the gorgeously gooey Snickers. Yummy is an understatement.

Many stalls had slashed their prices to offer even more affordable vintage fashion especially for the occasion and the legendary sale rails were in full force, with a plethora of colourful vintage dresses for a mere fiver.

A true vintage find was this pretty pastel dress, a bargain at £8 and perfect for a first date with black tights and a slick of red lipstick to offset the delicacy of the dress.


Another fair find was this beautifully re-worked vintage slip-dress, brought bang up to date with the added swish of quirky fabric. Originally £40, this dress had been reduced to a traffic-stopping £20 for the fair- a step in tune with the effect the lucky buyer is bound to have when they wear this dress.


A big thank you must go out to those who attended the fair and made it such an enjoyable event. We can’t wait for the next one and hope to see you there!
