What Are You Wearing? The Festive Edition.

I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas? The Retro Chick household has unfortunately been hit by the dreaded lurgy which we’re now trying to shake off in time for New Years Eve. On Christmas Day we still felt rather spoilt in the present department and had a lovely lunch at Cafe Rouge (no washing

Classy Christmas

I might have mentioned before I have an insatiable urge to theme things. In practice this mostly means if I feel I have a dress that looks a bit oriental I’ll decide to try an oriental hair do, or that if I happen to be watching Goodfellas on TV I’ll feel the urge to prepare

Local Love: Lady Lucks Boutique

I planned to visit Lady Lucks Boutique a few weeks ago, but Jade asked me to wait until she’d made the shop all pretty for Christmas So I did. One of the things I love about independent shops is that they have the freedom to make their shops as pretty as they like. No corporate

What Are You Wearing? Staying Warm

Have you noticed it’s been cold? I don’t want to be all terribly English and talk about the weather. Well, actually, I do. It’s been blooming freezing these last few weeks making it increasingly difficult to make it out of bed, let alone get dressed up all stylish and head out on the town. Last

Ho Ho Hosiery

Nothing like a terrible pun as a post title. This weather is far too cold for sheer stockings, so, living in the 21st Century as I happily do, I turn to a stock of opaque tights to keep my legs warm. Being prone to an urge towards theming my outfits I love a good pair
