Emily Chalmers: Caravan, Flea Market Style, Modern Vintage Style… Chances are, you love Emily’s styling aesthetic as much as I do. Emily generously wrote the introduction to Tif Fussell‘s Dottie Angel book and though she and Tif were acquainted, I had not yet had the pleasure of meeting Emily in person. We arranged to meet for the Thursday vintage market at Old Spitalfields Market. Emily has a 4-month old (beautiful!) daughter who napped in her white pram while we strolled the booths.
Emily’s old and new, mix and match style makes for homey and eclectic rooms—as well as a unique personal clothing style. I always admire people who can wear vintage pieces, but it never seems to suit me. I loved the textures and contrasts of her outfit.
The child’s rolltop desk was something we both instantly were drawn to. Emily’s daughter will get use this as she grows older and arrangements were made to bring it home.
The pile of letters spelled “coiffeur” and were only sold as a set (not to us, sadly.)
I could easily start a collection of antique ink bottles, but I resist the urge!
Me in my yellow jacket besides some typewriters. I have seen a lot of Londoners in the past week and I have not seen a single soul wearing a yellow slicker.
I would have purchased the tin sign “World’s Greatest Weekly for Women” if it would have fit in my luggage.
