Reading Uni Vintage Day


Last week I attended the first 3sixty Vintage Day held by the Students of the vintage & retro society at Reading University. Part of green week, vintage is ethical option for those who want to exercise their recycling and sustainable credentials... It was indeed a credit to them as it was a fantastic event with the students turning out in force. 

Rushed off my feet on the Frock&Roll stall (see below) I unfortunately managed to take very few pics, however this young talented photographer, Veronica Virna, who was luckily on hand to capture some amazing shots of the day. So Thank you to Veronica for the courtesy of your photos. 


















Can you notice the subtle transition from Veronica Virna professional snaps to mine?...







It was really enjoyable being on the otherside of the stall this time and loved being on my favourite boutiques stall frock&roll... had a great selection the sunglasses, scarves and bags which were selling like hotcakes... the students have a good stylish eye and where coming up with some great suggestions on how they would style or wear certain items.

Although this was a primarily a student event, fingers crossed they may possibly do another fair next year (I will keep you noted) However if you missed out this time not to worry you can always visit Frock&Roll at 111 Watlington Street, Reading.
