Phillipa here
With a shameful year of not giving my full attention to my blog, the fashion Gods have called me back in with a new fashion preacher The Ragged Priest.
Now I have been a little devilish and kept this little gem all to myself but I have decided to share the good news with my fellow readers. For those of you who are still wondering what the bloody hell The Ragged Priest is here is a brief history.
Originating for the World Wide Web's most popular auction site Ebay,the Ragged Priest's aim was to bring out and eco awareness vintage site, they do this by sending your item to you in 100 % recyclable paper.Now I know what your thinking who doesn't these days but the trick of their trade is their wrapping paper and packaging is recycled old newspapers, magazines and annual covers and their swing tags are old postcards pictures and playing cards. Now if you are as passionate and as interested about the yesteryear generation as I am you will understand the true magic and uniqueness of their ways of bringing recycling and the fashion industry together.
Now of those of you who are my less eco friendly fashion buddies. If any of you are struggling to find that special vintage garment the Priest has found the answer, instead of promoting the styles of past generation they promote and sell authentic vintage pieces that are in style in this day and age. They have beautiful tea dresses that are perfect for the that feminine touch for those who are craving the summer festival season, or if you are really enthusiastic why not stock up for winter with vintage Barbour coats or 80's rock n roll leather jackets.
There are hundreds of sparkling gems of this website that have a range of styles from 40's sunshine cream tea girl, to that 80's diva or even turn yourself into a 90's Kurt cobainette.
And If boys are craving the style factor The ragged Priest supports male shopaholics as well.Their male account is filled with original Levi shirts and what I assume will be rocking winter 2010 jean jackets and wax Barbour coats.
And if you still haven't got enough information on The Ragged Priest
