If you have a love of all things vintage, then cancel everything planned for this Saturday and make sure you head to Ventnor.

Suzes Room Vintage Sale This WeekendVintage emporium Suzes Room are having their first sale since taking over the little gem of a shop in Pier Street, Ventnor last April.

What’s on offer?
If you’ve been to the boutique shop in the last few months, you’ll know that they’ve got an amazing collection of vintage items for sale.

The sale this weekend features everything from 70’s dresses to 50’s tea sets, which will all be reduced to ‘vintage’ prices so that space can be made for new (old) autumn stock.

Suzes Room Vintage Sale This WeekendWhy buy vintage?
As owner Debby Robinson said during a recent interview on BBC Radio Solent, “With the same chain stores in every single town, individuality is becoming more and more difficult to achieve. Vintage allows people to create a different look, without spending a fortune.

“It also ties in with a move we’ve been seeing towards more authentic lifestyle – not one you can buy off the shelf, ready wrapped. People are recycling, re-using, turning to needlecrafts, veg growing, home baking. Two of our best sellers in Suzes room are aprons and cake stands!”

Digging the vintage vibe
So how do you go about being vintage? Debby’s advice is to mix and match, avoid being a purist.

Suzes Room Vintage Sale This WeekendShe suggests going for quality, whether it’s a bone china tea set or a cashmere cardigan. Afterall, they’re timeless items.

Most of all, she says, “Go for what you really love – not just what you think you should like.”

It is (the Isle of Wight) like navigating round a Ladybird book. Tea shops and deckchairs abound, and resorts such as Ventnor exude charm by the bucketful.
