September is here! I won't pretend to be sad to see the back of summer, I am definitely an autumn and winter kind of girl so the prospect of falling leaves, darker nights and chilly mornings makes me very happy indeed. Another great thing about the AW season is the extra fashion options available... coats and jackets, winter woollies, scarves and gloves, boots, layering and so much more - I am here for all of it!
We have New Arrivals landing all the time here at My Vintage HQ so I am super excited to share with you my favourites for the start of September, so let's dive in!
VINTAGE DRESSES
Cute and stylish mini shirt dress from 1970s Gordon Grant. Semi sheer broidery anglais fabric in cream and brown with full button front, pointed collar and elasticated cuffs.
