Honoured and ecstatic to be Va-Voom Vintage's Blog of the Month

In the world of vintage bloggers there are certain people that quickly become beloved household names, especially if their sites are chocked full of excellent posts, inspiring images, thoroughly talented tutorials, and sublime sundry old school fuelled offerings. One such blogger, whose site I have adored since the moment I first laid eyes on it back in 2009, is Brittany Sherman of Va-Voom Vintage.

 

Brittany from Va-Voom Vintage

 

A self-described mommy, housewife, crafty gal, and vintage blogger (not to mention all around gorgeous, friendly, wonderful and incredibly stylish person), Brittany (pictured above) offers readers a deeply appealing blend of all those elements of her life and many more, and as a result is an absolute must-read for anyone who finds one or more of those descriptions applies to them.

I've been a major fan of Va-Voom Vintage for ages, and was over-the-moon happy - and more than a little honoured - when Brittany contacted me recently in regards to being featured as her July Blogger of the Month.

 

Needless to say, I couldn't type "yes" fast enough! Yesterday Brittany published our interview, which I must say, she did a cracking job with. You can read the the interview here: Blog of the Month: Chronically Vintage.

 

Thank you scarcely begins to cover how grateful and over-joyed I am to be a part of this awesome, inspiring, beautiful vintage blog - especially, to boot, during my birthday month, which just makes the honour all the more meaningful for me.

 

Brittany, you and Va-Voom Vintage are the absolute bee's knees, and I am so incredibly touched to be your feature blog this month. Sweetest thanks!!!!!

  16. That is a really great article, and well done! I also really enjoyed reading your previous post it linked back to, it was extremely interesting reading about your (and others') challenges with clothing & chronic illness. Lovely photos used in the article too - I think the one of you in the green top and browny dress is just stunning.

    1. Hi Lisa,

      I'm absolutely thrilled that your found your way here. There are so very few of Canadian vintage bloggers around, so we really need to band together and find one another.

      Though I've lived in numerous other places across the country, at the moment we live in the beautiful Okanagan town of Penticton (which is about five hours outside of Vancouver and an hour south of Kelowna). I've never been to Winnipeg, but really hope to one day. If/when I do, we'll have to try and meet up for sure!

      ♥ Jessica
