40s/50s Festival, Bligh Park NSW

40s/50s Festival, Bligh Park NSW

I think I forgot to mention, i’m a red head now!

After 4 years of pink, it was time for a change… I bleached the roots, tried to lighten the ends (didnt really work) and put a orange/red stain over the top. Followed up with a blonde/copper semi to give it some tone. If anyone really wants to know the details i’ll make a seperate post ;).

Anywhoo – on Saturday, a group of us did a road trip out to Windsor for the 40s/50s Festival at the Bligh Park Tavern.
The festival was tiny, but it was only the first year so wait and see for next year I guess. There was an awesome brooch seller there and her prices were very  cheap – she told me where she usually frequents so I think i’ll stalk her a little bit!

The best thing about heading out west was being able to visit the op-shops! I’ve been keeping my eye out for a hair curler, and picked this one up for $2, box included. (it says its perfect for the “Bouffant, Cleopatra and Wing”). The other score was this 50s (maybe early 60s) fabric from the same shop – nearly 4 metres, so enough to make a dress!
Unfortunately, Cowboy couldnt come so we’re going to plan a seperate day out so she can visit all the op-shops/vintage shops too…
