Well, well, well... It's been a while since my last blog! What with work and Laura being away, I've been pretty busy! However now I have a week off, its going to be nothing but Amour, clothes, vintage hunts, Vogue, blogging and starbucks!
I did however, find the time to do a bit of vintage shopping for myself though, (and indulge my jacket obsession that seems to rear its head every winter haha!). You know those battered, worn, heavy duty, classic male cut, oversized brown leather jacket that every vintage lover hopes to come across? Well I hit the jackpot!
Check out this little stunner!
I plan on rocking it with some oversized knits and my over the knee socks, vintage levi's and band t-shirts, or grunging up one of my pretty dresses! The wonderful thing about leather jackets is theres nothing it doesn't go with. Making it a wardrobe staple!
So, tell us about your favourite vintage finds?
Love, Melissa Amour Xo

Buh Bye Summer...
Back at Amour HQ, we are finally getting back into the swing of things after our amazing fashion show :-)!
We are now selling all our summer garments in preparation for Autumn/Winter. We can't wait to start our vintage hunt; I'm hoping for lots of furs, velvet, luxurious lace and beautiful English tweed.
As much as I love Summer, I can't wait to whack out my stunning Vintage leopard fur! So there's lots for you lovelies to look forward to!
I've spent the day taking pictures of our beautiful garments; it's going to break my heart to let some of them go! Laura's off camping, sunning herself, swimming in the beautiful lakes and making Nando's over a Barbecue... just a little bit jealous!
Anyway! Please check out the last of our Spring/Summer collection at our eBay store, as well as the first of our Autumn/Winter pieces!
Peace out, Melissa Amour xo

Our first fashion show and pop up shop!
OH MY GOD! We absolutely loved our first fashion show and shop, hosted at Bar 1 in Sunderland, in association with 'Run for Cover' the premier swanky 60s night each month!
We were so excited to show off our creations, and felt a real buzz when we could actually come face to face with our customers. We had a great response, and loads of support when our gorgeous models (nervous as they were!) came strutting onto the stage.
We thought we'd share a sneak peek of 'behind the scenes' of the show; it was manic to say the least! But an amazing manic, if that makes sense. It really hit us that, we were really doing something we were passionate about and people were supporting us.
We met some other local businesses and had a little chat about our concept and how much we loved it. The DJ's, Kris and Liam, made sure the venue had amazing music all night, and we couldn't help but dance along as we were selling our vintage goodies.
A big thanks must go out to all of the staff at Bar 1 who let us hijack their little 60s night, and our gorgeous models who wore our clothes so beautifully.
Anything that wasn't sold on the night will be available on our eBay store, so if you liked anything on the night if you were there, or if you want to have a peek to what we sell, click away!
Love and kisses,
the Amour girls Xo

New Service for all!
Hi dolls, sorry we've been noticeably M.I.A from the blogging radar as of late; we've just been soooo busy with our first fashion show!
For local fans, it's at Bar 1 in Sunderland, on the Priestman roundabout (round the corner from The Cooper Rose). It's a really cool, relaxed venue, so why not grab a drink with friends this Saturday night (30th), and see what we have to offer!
The main purpose of this post was to let everyone know about our new customisation service. If you have seen a top in a store with a cute collar or detail and would like to emulate it, let us know! We're loving lace, crotchet, and cute prints at the moment! Interested? Drop us an email at amourvintage@hotmail.com and we can talk over what you'd like.
We've had a hectic weekend, juggling our part time jobs, looking for better jobs, and trying to make this fashion show the best ever! Now, we just want to relax with a cuppa and a good film. My film of choice? (500) days of Summer.
Lots of love,
Laura xo
