|Only 2 DAYS to go……
Friday, April 9th, 2010
Hooray for short working weeks!
It’s Friday which means only 2 days remain until Land of PASH opens its borders at 10am on Sunday to a feast of vintage fashion & retro style.
If you are on the hunt for a wedding outfit to wow, write yourself a big reminder for Sunday NOW – you do not want to miss us. From lace Edwardian tea dresses and figure-hugging pin-up glamour to Ossie Clark Maxi’s – there’s something to suit everyone. Add to the look with a classic pair of vintage gloves, a handbag and a head-topping creation from one of our talented, vintage-inspired milliners.
Give your home a ‘spring is in the air’ feel, with a scatter of funky cushions from Loll and Lie, a pinch of retro chic from the Vintage Kitchen, classic, crisp vintage linen from Now & Then or an Art Deco conversation piece from Cheryl Brown (yes, that is the same lovely Cheryl Brown from the Real Deal).
We have a line-up of jewellery merchants whose collections will seduce and delight – vintage beaded chokers from Darling It’s Perfect, unique nostalgic designs from Amy Keeper, show-stopping Art Deco finds from Helen and Adrienne and many more beautiful adornments.
And don’t forget; we’re a Man-Friendly fair! Kick start your sun-loving wardrobe guys with a head-turning 50s Guayabera shirt or a pair of vintage shades from Jamie at SunGods.
We look forward to seeing you on Sunday – find us and say Hello
Kerry & Victor

Inspired By She
Thursday, March 11th, 2010
Merchant of PASH
Jodie believes she missed her vocation to be a stripper, a burlesque dancer or even a check-out girl in Ann Summers, so she paints this world instead.
She likes all things 40s and 50s and desperately wishes she could wear killer heels and a pencil skirt without thinking ‘Man, where are my flip-flops?!’.
She also enjoys tea, a good box set, pin-up art, cheese, lingerie, bows and leopard print. That’s Jodie – the artist behind Inspired by She.

Annie of Teagowns & Textiles
Sunday, February 28th, 2010
Apologies – we have been so busy behind the scenes in PASH that the stock of keys to our land are still sitting in their key cupboard! Without further ado, a key has been sent to Annie of Teagowns and Textiles - a true Icon of PASH.
Annie sources worldwide to fill her vintage fashion enclave in Leominster, Herefordshire with clothing, textiles, accessories and jewellery. The result is a passionistas playground full of several 1000 pieces of vintage treasure ranging from the Georgian era to 1960s particularly concentrating on silks, velvets, satins, chiffons and lames.
If you intend treating yourself to a visit, make sure you allow plenty of time for browsing.
We vintage lovers are forever thankful for Annie’s dedication to purveying vintage fashion delights.

On Behalf of Vintage Handbag Obsessives..
Tuesday, January 19th, 2010
As a veteran collector of vintage handbags, I am excited to award the next key to the Land of PASH to Sigrid Ivo, the Director and Curator of the Museum of Bags and Purses in Amsterdam. I met Sigrid several years ago and experienced her passion firsthand. I was particularly delighted to hear her tales of scouring London markets and fairs with her Mother – the founder of the museum and almost fainted to learn that, somewhere in the depth of Amsterdam, the museum has a storage facility filled with donated treasures, awaiting their turn to be showcased in the museum. I have often dreamed of that hidden handbag haven.
The Tassen Museum is a labour of love and on behalf of vintage handbag lovers the world over, we award Sigrid a key to our Land.

A Fanfare of Trumpets please
Saturday, January 16th, 2010
This weekend, we have ceremoniously unlocked the cabinet that houses our coveted Land of PASH keys.
The first two worthy recipients are Kerry Taylor of Kerry Taylor auctions and Lena Weber, Editor of Queens of Vintage. Their services to individual, chic, cool and funky vintage style are unquestionable.
Although Kerry’s job has always sounded like a dream to me – travelling the globe to unearth vintage fashion treasures – I remain in awe of her incredible knowledge base and totally appreciative of her ability to continually showcase the most marvellous of pieces.
Lena and her team at Queens of Vintage have been providing my daily vintage fix for some time now. I particularly enjoy reading about the individual Queens and the insight into vintage shopping in key cities worldwide. Who among us can resist trying to fit a little vintage shopping into a weekend break?
Lena has already promised to grab her passport and head straight to our Land on the 7th. We hope Kerry is in the country and can cross our borders too.
