Welcome to My Vintage Daydream! I am so excited that you're here. My name is Rhiannon and this is a blog dedicated to the expressing the eras gone by in modern times.
Like many people in 2020, with more time to give to other things - I discovered vintage - everything. Drawn initially to the 1950s, I began to invest in reproduction brands and bought my first set of foam rollers. It was a humble beginning, and I still feel like a newbie even now! You have to be a beginner before you can be anything else! There is nothing like learning a vintage hairstyle, successfully cooking wartime recipe or finding a second-hand dress that's older than me.
Fast forward three years - 2022 turned into 2023 - and as a resolution of some description, I promised myself that I'd begin to live my vintage daydream every day. Whether it is simply wearing pearls and red lipstick, or pulling together an entire look to cook Guernsey Potato Peel Pie and ANZAC biscuits in my kitchen at home - it didn't matter. It's a commitment - and one, done lovingly so.
This is my venture into the past, the decades that have inspired me and the lifestyles of those who came before me. I've always been fascinated by history and the generations that I never knew.
Whether you love the Gatsby feel of the 1920s, the Hollywood glamour of the 1930s, the militant influence of the 1940s, or the full skirts of the 1950s (don't be surprised if a 1960s Twiggy beehive sneaks in!) - I hope you find something here you love, something that inspires you to remember a time or a moment that might otherwise be forgotten.
