but I must say that there are less and less interesting items in small villages ones.
Most of people are now selling children clothes and modern plastic stuff...
That kind of flea markets make me depressed!
But we managed to find a few things for cheap despite that...
While returning home,
we found this abandoned place...
even more abandoned because french soccer team was playing for the Euro at that time...
People are really becoming crazy in Europe because of soccer!
Sylvain and I HATE soccer, so we really don't understand all that crazyness...
But it was not a bad thing, we could be alone for a photo shoot!
A lot of people asked my on that day if I was wearing a traditional outfit...
No, not really...
My 50's novelty skirt was mexican inspired...
My vintage top is probably from Hungary...
My new Miss L Fire sandals also had a mexican flair...
Sales have just started in France so they were my present... to me!
As summer came and left...
Sylvain could go back to wearing a tie!
This 40's one has a really great design.
A sweater is still needed even with some sun...
So I could wear one more time my Emmy design one,
it can really match a lot of outfits!
I paired it with a cute Toucan from Erstwilder.
My hubby really likes this kind of industrial places.
He is fed up of nature on our pictures...
not easy to find a timeless background!
I don't like so much this kind of decrepit places...
but I must say that they can provide nice pictures.
A few words about my skirt...
it was in really bad shape when I bought it.
Probably made by a novice....
Pleats were unequal, waist badly sew and buttons were awfull.
But after some cares, it is breathless!
I bought those vintage salamander buttons in a thrift store,
they were made for that skirt!!!
Can you believe that I found the perfect matching bangles in a flea market on the same day?
Do you like this kind of background?
Do you like soccer and are you following Euro?
FRENCH CORNER
Ce fût un dimanche rempli de marchés aux puces... mais c'est de plus en plus difficiles de faire des affaires dans les vides greniers de villages... vêtements d'enfants, plastiques cheap à gogo, mais où sont les greniers bien remplis de nos grands-mères??? En retournant à la maison, nous sommes tombés sur cet endroit oublié... parfaitement déserté... probablement aussi parce que la France jouait son 8ème de finale pour l'Euro au même moment... Sylvain et moi détestons le foot, il est donc difficile pour nous de comprendre les réactions excessives des fans... mais bon, cela nous a permis de faire une petite séance photo en toute tranquillité! L'été étant parti aussi vite qu'arrivé, Sylvain a pu à nouveau arborer une belle cravate... et pour moi, un mixe de différents horizons qui m'a valu bien des questions!
- Bonnes vacances pour ceux qui y sont! -
