DIAMONDS DOLLS #2

Great news for fashionistas! Brenda Part of Diamond Dolls at Dream Jewels in Moira is opening a second shop.


The new Diamond Dolls will be opening at 50 Bridge Street in Banbridge (previously the Powderpuff shop in the old bank building) in time for the Easter weekend.

The Banbridge branch of Diamond Dolls promises a truly breathtaking experience - a girlie paradise with the "WOW" factor. Specialising in a fantastic range of top designer creations, with the latest celebrity party dresses, glamorous streetwear, and jewellery all guaranteed to make you feel like a star at a movie premiere, this is the place to go for a fabulous outfit for a wedding, a day at the races, or a glamorous ball.

The new Diamond Dolls store will be open by the Easter weekend and initially won't have any vintage stock but we can be guaranteed that Brenda will be offsetting the glamorous designer wear with lots of vintage and vintage-style props. Customers can still visit the Moira store for vintage dresses and stunning high-end vintage costume jewellery, hats and bags (images below).

Good luck with the new venture Brenda - we can't wait to visit the new store x

HOW BAZAAR

Apologies readers for the lack of posts over the last couple of weeks. Things have been hectic since our Totally Bazaar Vintage Fair on 3rd April. Firstly I was ill with tonsilitis, then I got caught up with PR for the forthcoming Decadence Vintage Bridal Fair, and I have also been sorting out a new office for the Decadence HQ. Exciting times!!

Better late than never, here are some long-awaited images of Totally Bazaar.

VINTAGE MAGNETISM

We adore the handmade cards by Nichola Clarke from Nik's Vintage, made using vintage cigarette cards featuring films stars from the silver screen, and now Nik has introduced a new range of fridge magnets in time for Totally Bazaar this Sunday.

Choose from a variety of designs including vintage film stars, cute animals and cupcakes, and kitsch nautical images.

PEARLY QUEEN

Lisa Chan of Lisabella has given us a preview of some of her new pieces for Totally Bazaar this Sunday. Very pretty, girly and fresh - perfect pieces to accompany vintage cotton frocks while drinking tea from chintzy china!

We think that these gorgeous jewellery pieces would make beautiful gifts for Mum this Mother's Day, a treat for oneself, or keepsake gifts for bridesmaids.
