Introducing Truly Madly Vintage HOME

We are really excited to launch our new shop Truly Madly Vintage Home on Saturday 22nd January 2011 at 160 Moulsham Street, Chelmsford CM2 0LD (literally just down the road from the clothes shop).

We will be selling a wide range of beautiful furniture and homewares dating from the 1850s to the 1950s (ish), basically anything that we think is beautiful and that our customers will love to have in their home from coffee tables to sofas, wardrobes, table linens, vintage china and anything else you can think of. We like to think of it as original, unique, affordable chic as there will be something for everyone no matter what your budget.

We will also be stocking a range of vintage Scandanavian furniture including 2 and 3-seater sofas and swivel chairs that are currently supplied to John Lewis Oxford Street, Selfridges Oxford Street and Truly Madly Vintage Home.

We hope you will be able to join us on the 22nd between 11am and 4pm for a celebratory drink but, even if you can't make it down on the launch day, be sure to pop up to see us, you never know what you might find.

See you soon.

Vintage Fashion Shoots

We have just published the photos from the vintage photoshoot that took place at the TMV shop in Moulsham Street.  The girls got to choose the clothes they wore and then had hair and makeup done by a team of professionals and we think you'll agree that the results are fab!  There are more photos available on the facebook page.

If you want more information about future shoots please get in touch via philippa@trulymadlyvintage.com and we'll be happy to discuss options with you.  The usual cost is £20 and for this you get all the styling and 1 photo of your choice to keep, you can then purchase more photos if you wish but there is no obligation - all in all a fantastic deal we think!

We are able to offer this service for your special event - be it birthday, hen night or other gathering - so if it takes your fancy then let us know and let us plan something special for you.
