All about the birds

I hope you all had a VERY lovely Christmas! I enjoyed some family time and ate too much - but it all seemed to be over too quickly and it was straight back to work in vintage land for me!

 I watched 'The Girl' on Boxing Day - Sienna Miller in her portrayal of actress Tippi Hedren and her working relationship with Alfred Hitchcock after he plucked her from obscurity and made her the starring role of spooky thriller 'The Birds'. 

I'm a huge Sienna fan, and thought she played the part very well, it was fascinating to watch and when I returned to the vintage boutique an outfit jumped straight out at me for such an iconic movie!

I had some black birds tattooed on my left wrist two years ago, so think it only right at some point in my life I dress up like Tippi as Melanie Daniels in 'The Birds'. 

Who's on your dressing up wish list?
