Here's a little bit about the journal:

"The Vintage Fashion Journal is perfect for jotting down ideas when trawling vintage boutiques, galleries, old-school tearooms and flea markets for inspiration.

Beautiful drawings of fashion trends and retro accessories from the 1940s to the 1980s are interspersed throughout the pages, along with amusing quotes from famous style icons past and present.

With a cloth cover and ribbon fastening, this is an attractive gift for fashionistas, stationery addicts and fans of all things vintage."
