Car Boot Sales & Vintage Markets: Saturday 5th October


Photo
Autumn is a good time of year for a clear out and I am pleased to report, for the next few weekends, there are some ace car boot sales and markets happening, including my FAVOURITE car boot of all time. This is the first instalment of my recommended thrifty hangouts so check back next week for some more!
So firstly, it's elusive, it's unreliable, it happens twice a year and if it dares to goddamn rains this Saturday I will cry into my thrifted pillowcases:

St Pauls Car Boot Sale



Saturday 5th October, 10am-2pm St Paul's Church of England Primary School Elsworthy Road NW3 3DS Nearest Tube: Chalk Farm (Northern Line) Entrance: £1
I don't want to hype this up too much or anything because, ya' know, we all have our off days but this is where I bought sealed Diptyque perfume for £2, vintage kimonos, Barbour jackets etc. It's been bloody amazing every time I've been and I'm actually getting butterflies and nerves just thinking getting there tomorrow, but then I do have an unhealthy obsession with junk so, whatever. Also, it's good for celeb spotting- David Walliams, Lara Stone, Jameela Jamil- they all love a good car boot too.
The North London Vintage Market is back!
