The day before yesterday, my insane grandmother (wouldn't have her any other way!) and I drove to the quaint nearby town of Bridgnorth to attend the Mad March Vintage Fair. Bridgnorth is beautiful little place, very traditional. The High Town is set up a hill before the River Severn, with narrow little streets and Victorian shop fronts. It's served by adorable 1950s cable cars. It looks sort of fairytale-ish, complete with its own river, grand bridge and (ruined) castle! Isn't it just a writer's dream? According to King Charles II, Bridgnorth has the 'finest view in all my kingdom'!
Of course, I didn't have a camera with me, so I found some from the web. I've given credit where I can find it, but if any photographers want me to take them down, I'll do so gladly!

If you're still here, I bought a beautiful 1950s dress from the fair from
Maisie's Closet Vintage and an adorable Jackie Kennedy-style 1960s baby blue suit with little bows from the wonderful Vix of
Kinky Melon. I'll be wearing the dress on holiday (yay!) soon, so I'll post pictures then.
