Utility's christmas market; 9th December

Nestled away on the not so snowy streets of Chester you'll stumble upon Telford's warehouse, home to Utility's vintage market. Helping to ease in the festive season with a Christmas special which saw an abundance of stalls, and festive treats.

This was my first trip to one of their in house markets, so I was in for a treat. Tucked on the outskirts of the city centre, Telford's warehouse has been home to many a gig, burlesque performance, & even diy art evenings so it seems a

perfectly fitting home for Utility's markets.

Their Christmas market saw an array of festivities with music and plenty of mulled wine to held ease in the festive spirit. A vintage pop up market with a selection of vintage attire, mixed with local independent designers.

Bursting with a wide range of stalls, featuring a stunning array across the venue, with plenty of vintage clothing and home wares, and a selection of stunning vintage inspired attire by a selection of local designers. From the darling vintage offerings of local companies Dizzy dishes & Extinct design, to the breathtakingly stunning rockabilly & vintage inspired attire by Oh my honey.

The finishing touches were topped off with the rather festive theme to the evening with a selection of tasty mince pies & mulled wine to hand; trying to browse stands without being tipsy in my kitten heels was rather a task!

A truly festive evening, helping once again to put the North west on the map for vintage events. For more on Utility's vintage market visit their Facebook page; where you can keep up to date with their future events.
