My Story So Far........
Hi, I'm Emma :)
I opened Raspberry Mint Vintage in July 2014, so this is a relatively new venture for me. I've always had a passion for vintage clothing. I remember my friends teasing me for wearing my mother's old 70's bomber jacket back in highschool - but I never really cared or concerned myself with their opinions and just enjoyed feeling individual and comfortable in my own choices. Vintage homewares for me, came about a lot later - and over the past 5-6 years, I've transformed my 3 bedroom town house into a elective cave full of pretty items I've thrifted from all over the place.. I live in a large Suffolk town in the UK, which is about 70 miles north of London with my hubby and 3 kiddie-winkles. I've also been writing a vintage lifestyle blog called 'Dear Thirty' for 2 years.
I opened Raspberry Mint Vintage initially because I had too many clothes, like most women I guess! I needed to find that extra space and I had so many lovely pieces that I just don't wear for whatever reason, so I began by selling them here. Since then, I can't help but thrift more things for the shop - I suppose it's an addiction ;)
Any questions about anything at all, send me a convo - I'm very friendly :D
