Vintage at Goodwood

12 Aug 2010 POST BY HOFSam

Calling all vintage lovers… calling all vintage lovers… the event of the season is here. Vintage at Goodwood kicks of this weekend and we’re going to be there rocking our very best vintage wares and capturing all the action.

From a roller disco to The Noisettes performing live, to vintage shopping galore and burlesque performances… it’s all happening at Goodwood.

We’ll keep you posted about the events, but to see pics and to find out all the latest from Goodwood follow us on twitter at hotathof tomorrow, when we’ll be covering all the action.

If you fancy joining us on our quest for vintage perfection tickets are still available at: https://ticketing.goodwood.com/buytickets/vintage.aspx

But what do you wear to an event as fabulous as this? We’re feeling a little Edge of Love inspired, so here’s our top picks:

Left to right: Floral belted dress, £60, Dahlia, Navy wellington boots, £65, Hunter, Le Rouge Absolue lipstick, £19, Lancome.

The floral dress-wellies combo is always a winner especially with a flash of retro red lippy.

So, we’ve got our tickets, we’ve got our outfit, we’re in the retro mood… Goodwood here we come. We’ll hopefully see you there…
