Just spent my evening helping out with a fashion show at Wild Child Originals; now officially my fave vintage shop. I’d heard good things about Wild Child before, but it’s better than I’d anticipated: whereas most vintage shops require lots of rummaging through smelly eighties jumpers to find one good purchase, everything in here seems hand-picked, with abundant supplies of one-off gems. Even the big eighties jumpers are fabulous (and not smelly, I hasten to add).
