Here ye! Here ye! Read all about it...

Armstrong's have only gone and made it to the front cover of today's Edinburgh Evening News!!

Here's a sneak preview into the amazing shoot, using an array of Armstrong's vintage delights.

Styled by Lynne McCrossan.



Very in-keeping with the nations recurring patriotic theme!


Well, we will never doubt the infamous 'onsie' again!  Who knew it could look so stylish?!


Check out the full spread in tonight's copy of the Edinburgh Evening News! 



This 1930s original floral dress is just darling!  Remember a wide range of our stock is also available online at

Judy's Affordable Vintage Fair!


Did you guys make it along to Judy's affordable vintage fair last week? Well, we did and had a great time spotting Edinburgh most stylish!It was a great opportunity to dig through other people's vintage collections! There was many a bargain to be had which certainly puts a smile on our faces! Check out some of the great shots we took! 


So many amazing things to be found! We love all the little trinkets and accessories; I wonder how many were found in the pockets of vintage garments! 


We even bumped into some of our loyal Armstrong's shoppers!


We thought you guys looked great in your clashing prints! Love the rose hair band against her pastel hair!
Great contrast of graphic prints with a band t-shirt! Such individual style is hard to find these days ladies! Keep shopping at Armstrong's!


We loved this 1940s inspired outfit! Cute cardi over a ditzy floral print dress! Cinching the waist with a skinny belt creates such a lovely feminine silhouette!


Hats off to another great day and a great fair! Until next time...
