After some vicious elbowing, I have finally managed to grab a stool in Federation Coffee. I am in heaven right now with my Flat White and chocolate cheesecake brownie but this post isn't about my addiction to brownies and good coffee (more on that later). This post is all about a pocket sized shop called Leftovers which happens to be a one stop shop for antique fashions and exquisite vintage finds. Think pre-fifties clothing, lace, unbelievable intricacy, victorian frocks, woollen jumpers and as though that wasn't good enough, fair prices.
What I love about this place is how every piece feels like it has been handpicked, you can just tell that a lot of time and effort has gone into deciding what exactly is in the shop. Leftovers is also perfect if you're looking for one-off pieces for wardrobe, you can make a plain black dress your own by picking up a collar and sewing it on. Who doesn't love a bit of DIY? So if you're in Brixton head over to Leftovers and if you're not it's definitely worth the detour.
