Happiness squeal! For the first Meet a Fellow Vintage Blogger post of 2016 I'm giddy with excitement to announce that this month's interviewee is none other than the one and only Nora from the beloved vintage fashion and lifestyle blog Nora Finds.
For many in our vintage adoring circle, Nora needs no introduction. Her eye-catching, decidedly chic sense of style, love of colour in her outfits, frequent blog posts (and comments on other peoples' sites), strong social media presence, and joie de vivre shine through in all that she does and have helped to establish her as one of best known vintage bloggers on the block.
Last year Nora and her husband packed up their lives and moved half way across the world from sunny Australia to the history rich nation of England, where they now call London home.
Nora and I have known each other online for years now and have developed an even deeper friendship over the past year or so thanks to many wonderful messages back and forth. As such, I feel all the more honoured to have had the opportunity to interview and get to know this smart, stylish lady better.
Whether you've been following Nora's blog since its debut five years ago, are meeting for the first time today, or fall somewhere in between, read on to find about more about what drives Nora's immense passion for mid-century styles, how she's taking to life in the UK, what her dream companies to work with would be, and oodles more!
Your blog is elegantly titled simply "Nora Finds" can you share with us more about what inspired that moniker?
When I first started the blog I wasn’t quite sure where I was going with it. I knew I wanted to “find” my style, “find” bargains, and “find” inspirations from other bloggers. In a sense, the blog is a visual scrapbook to document all these finds. I also wanted a name that will allow for changes or improvement so I picked something quite simple.
Your site launched in 2011. Congratulations on five exciting years of blogging! What are some of the key transformations that your blog has experienced over the years?
The blog originally focused on fashion and finding my style and soon enough I did actually learn that I wanted to commit to vintage fashion. So the key transformation to the blog is it went from general fashion to exclusively vintage and vintage-style fashion.
With the continual rise of social media and microblogging, fewer and fewer vintage adoring folks are still blogging (either regularly or point blank). It's both refreshingly and inspiring that you're amongst the devoted group of us who are still doing as much at present. What are the key reasons why you've opted to do so (to keep blogging, that is)?
I have noticed this change as well and I am quite saddened by it! I love social media because I can easily find other vintage lovers from all over the world. But the blog is my first love and as you know I am quite a chatty person so social media aren’t quite enough for me to express myself.
My love of vintage stems from my love of history and stories behind every piece so the blog is dedicated to telling stories and connecting with people who want to know about me and my outfits.
Your blog is heavily (and beautifully!) fashion focused, but that certainly isn't the only topic that you cover on Nora Finds. For those who may be new to your blog, can you please highlight some of the other types of subjects that you've delved into over the years?
It is rare that I talk about non-fashion topics, but I have occasionally discussed mental health issues, bullying, and multiculturalism. I only speak about topics I have experiences with but I am passionate about encouraging others to talk about things they have gone through.
Speaking of style, how would describe your present fashion sense?
Vintage and practical.
What are some of the biggest changes in the vintage fashion world that jump out you personally over the course of the past five years?
Vintage is definitely at the height of its popularity, but I notice that vintage-inspired designs are possibly more popular than genuine vintage clothes. I guess accessibility and price mean that more people can adopt the vintage lifestyle without actually wearing vintage.
Your ensembles are always exciting, dynamic and chock-a-block full of great details. What are some of your favourite ways to take an outfit from merely nice/pretty to head-turningly-awesome?
I don’t wear a lot of accessories but I love my earrings and my hats. I think I always try to embellish my short hair and it always make my outfits extra vintage.
Are there any colour pairings or combos that you return to time and time again?
Brown and green. I discovered that green is the color that never fails to make me happy. And I guess it is my way to blend with the nature.
You've had the joy and honour of working with a wide array of vintage, repro, and similar fashion brands over the years, are there any such collaborations that really stand out in your mind and if so, why?
My most exciting collaboration is with the milliner Tanith Rowan. To be able to get a custom-made hat to match one of my favorite dresses is just amazing. As a vintage lover who often spends hours and hours trawling the internet for the perfect hat I have to admit that I am now a convert. The time and effort I spend can easily be diverted towards designing the perfect hat with Tanith.
Can you share with us some brands that you'd love to work with in such a capacity, but that you haven't yet?
I would love to work with Christian Lacroix and Schiaparelli. Hey, if I was going to dream I better dream big, right?! Hehehe, I’d love to work with Emmy Design, Pin Up Girl Clothing, Daisy Dapper and Lena Hoschek.
How important is social media to you in the context of your blog?
Social media is definitely important for my blog. It helps me reach more vintage lovers from all over the world, and even though only a small percentage of these people end up on my blog it is still worth doing. For me the social media complement my blog but they will never replace it.
Where to do you see the vintage fashion world going in the next few years (e.g., trends, preferences for certain decades, a continual rise of pinup style brands, etc)?
I think 50s style will still be the most popular, and 40s fashion will follow right behind. The 1920s fashion will hopefully be less costume-y and more genuine. There will definitely be more and more vintage-inspired brands and hopefully they can better harmonize different styles of vintage (New Look meets pin up, or WWII meets steampunk).

You and your husband recently relocated to England all the way from Australia. Having been in that country for a few months now, what are you finding to be some of the most striking differences between the vintage scene in each country?
The most striking difference is the large number of vintage events here in UK. In Australia we probably have less than 10 events per year but here you have several vintage fairs on one weekend and many vintage events all across the country that you are spoiled for choice.
England is the world's undisputed capital of vintage style and I can imagine that has been awesome getting to emerge yourself in such. What are some of the ways that you've been doing so thus far?
I have to admit that I haven’t done enough to immerse myself in the vintage scene. Unfortunately the husband isn’t into vintage and I've yet to make many vintage friends, so I am still too intimidated to go to the big events. I definitely have visited some vintage markets and met up with some ladies from a vintage forum. These events are much smaller so I can combat my social anxiety and get to know people properly.
Any vintage (or repro) shops or events in particular that you'd really like to visit/attend that you haven't done so yet?
I would love to go to Twinwood and Goodwood Revival one day, as well as Viva Las Vegas! I’m not sure when that will be, but one day!
And last, but certainly not least, can you please give us a taster of what folks can look forward to on Nora Finds throughout 2016?
I have some plans for the blog but the main thing is to include more lifestyle and travel posts. I want to highlight some vintage-inspired product and graphic designers, and showcase some vintage shops and vintage-related traveling posts. I really want the blog to showcase more of who I am and what I love.

Meet the past interviewees who have taken part in this delightful ongoing post series:
♥ ♥ ♥
Thank you so much for the awesome interview, Nora, and for the continual source of inspiration that you, your blog, and your terrific fashion sense impart to the vintage community day in and day out. It was such a treat getting to know you even better!
Next up, in the month of love, as things stand now, it looks like we'll be hopping back in our swanky mid-century jet and bee lining it back to the good, ol' U-S-of-A to chat with another devoted vintage fan, avid blogger, massive pet lover, and classic cinema buff who I'm equally excited to learn more about - as I bet you are, too!
She has an amazing sense of style. The outfits are exquisite. Thanks for featuring Nora. I'm now following her blog!
ReplyDeleteDoesn't she ever! It's so chic, creative and bursting with fabulous colour combinations. I am perpetually inspired by Nora and her stellar wardrobe!
DeleteBig hugs & happy Wednesday wishes,
♥ Jessica
Yay, I knew it would be Nora and I'm so happy to see her join your fascinating interview series :) And gosh darn it at some point this year we will make a meet-up work - are you reading this Nora?! It will happen! I didn't realise that her blog was a search for style, but that makes sense now with the name. It makes me want to go back to the start and watch how her fashion sense has evolved! I know what I'm doing next time I have a spare hour ;) xx
ReplyDelete:) I sensed some folks would pick up on who I was eluding to as the next interviewee when I described her at the end of December's interview post. I'm so thrilled to have had the chance to chat with Nora here in this capacity on my blog. It would be a true joy to do so in person, too, and I really hope that you two are able to connect in that way now that she lives in the UK (and of course, that I can hop the pond one day and meet you both, too!).
DeleteBig hugs & many thanks for your fantastic comment,
♥ Jessica
This sounds totally weird, but I'm excited to find a vintage blogger with a pixie cut! LOL! I cut off my long hair a couple years ago, and sometimes feel so "un-vintage-y". That definitely isn't the case with Nora's hair. Inspiring.
ReplyDeleteIt - and she, in general - really is inspiring. I love her charming pixie cut as well. It suits her superbly and is proof positive that short hair suits vintage wearers just as awesomely as medium and longer lengths (and speaking of pixie cuts, do you follow any of the blogs Girl with a Star Spangled Heart, she rocks a great one with her vintage looks as well).
DeleteBig hugs & happy Wednesday wishes,
♥ Jessica
Trust me I repeatedly think about growing my hair out but I am so super lazy! xxx
DeleteGreat to see her blog featured here!
ReplyDeletewww.mancunianvintage.com
Thank you! It's awesome to be able to do so. Nora is definitely a leading light in today's vintage blogging world and it is an absolute honour to have interviewed her.
DeleteMany thanks for your lovely comment - have a great week!
♥ Jessica
Lovely, I have been a fan of hers from quite some time. I really do appreciate bloggers like her and yourself who can take fabulous outfit shots they always inspire me. I can't wait to see whom else you feature this year:)
ReplyDeleteThat's an awesome thing to hear, sweet Daphne. Thank you so much! Nora really is one inspiringly stylish lady. Her way with colour and accessorizing always knocks my socks off.
DeleteBig hugs & happy Thursday wishes,
♥ Jessica
another enjoyable interview by Chronically Vintage. I'm familiar with Nora Finds but this interview was most revealing. While I agree with Nora on the trend towards 50 and then 40s, I have a feeling that the 1930s will soon become popular among vintage enthusiasts, just think of Hollywood, Gold Diggers of 1933 and you'll see what I mean !
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, lovely lady. I too sense the 1920s and 30s are growing in popularity in the vintage world. It's awesome to see the spectrum of frequently sported decades expanding and I look forward to being further inspiring by those who embrace eras on either side of the decades I adore most.
DeleteHave a fabulous tail end of January,
♥ Jessica
Great Interview with Nora! Enjoyed reading it :) She always inspires me a lot, I loove her style and her use of accessories! She's awesome :)
ReplyDeleteSame here, sweet gal! Nora's accessory game is so on point. She always adds that little something-something extra that elevates a look from great to sensational.
DeleteMany hugs & happy Thursday wishes,
♥ Jessica
I truely loved reading this interview :)
ReplyDeleteThank you sweetly, my dear. I'm delighted to know that you enjoyed this month's interview.
DeleteMany hugs,
♥ Jessica
What a sweet lady. We are so blessed to have people such as yourself giving inspiration to us vintage wearers. It's one of the loveliest communities to be a part of. I believe it's because we channel other aspects of the past, such as manners and a true caring attitude. These things exist today of course, but people seem so very preoccupied to show them as much. Thank you for a wonderful series. Wishing you the best xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a touchingly thoughtful comment, sweet Emily. Thank you immensely! I completely agree. The vintage world, by and large, is friendly, caring, helpful, well mannered, amazing people (very much including Nora).
DeleteMany thanks again & have a stellar week,
♥ Jessica
♥ Jessica
I love Nora's blog and her style! Such gorgeous swoon-worthy outfits! So fun to read more about her here!
ReplyDeleteAren't they though? So stylish, fresh and beautiful! Nora has an awesome way with colour, layering and accessorizing. It's impossible to look at her outfits and not be inspired!
DeleteBig hugs & many thanks for your great comment,
♥ Jessica
I so admire Nora's stylish vintage style and her attention to detail.I am in awe of her fabulous hat collection. Thankyou for featuring her.
ReplyDeleteAren't her hats fantastic?! I really adore them (and Nora's style itself in general), too, and love that she's another vintage hat fan who sports them often.
DeleteMany hugs from chilly Canada,
♥ Jessica
I am definitely going to follow her blog! Her style is just lovely :)
ReplyDeleteThat's wonderful! I'm delighted that I could introduce you to Nora and her marvelous sense of old school style.
DeleteBig hugs,
♥ Jessica
One of my absolute favorite vintage bloggers! This was a lovely interview with her. I liked her style forecast comments (I'm with her on the 20s thing), and I hope her dream of working with Schiaprelli comes true!
ReplyDeleteAs do I! She would be a stunning model for any company (who would be lucky to have her!), Schiaprelli very much included.
DeleteThank you very much for your great comment, sweet lady. I hope that you're having a wonderful week.
Many hugs,
♥ Jessica
What a great interview with Nora, I love following her on instagram and her vintage style is amazing! :)
ReplyDeleteNora's Instagram is awesome! I really admire how how she posts and the blend of fashion and other happenings in her life that she shares there.
DeleteThank you for your lovely comment, dear Camilla. Have a great second half of the week!
Big hugs,
♥ Jessica
I have come across Nora a few times, but had yet remembered how to find her to follow...So thank you...Will now do so. It was grand to get to know her better.
ReplyDeleteYou're very welcome, lovely Ruby. So happy that I could concretely bring you together with Nora (be sure to follow her Instagram, it's chock-a-block with great fashion and exciting everyday snaps alike).
DeleteMany hugs & happy Thursday wishes,
♥ Jessica
wow - what a gorgeous style!!
ReplyDeleteshe´s totally chic! thank you jess for interviewing her! sooo inspiring!
hugs and kisses to canada!!!
<3 <3 <3
She really is one chic vintage fashionista with a fabulous eye for style. I especially love her use of colour. That's something I strive for, too, and adore having fellow vintage bloggers to be inspired by on that front.
DeleteMany hugs right back at you, my dear friend!
♥ Jessica
I love Nora, she has such an amazing sense of style and I am a sucker for anyone with a pixie cut! Her presence on both social media and her blog are just so incredible and it really surprised me to hear her say that she's too intimidated to go to the big vintage events. She comes across as really confident, especially when about encouraging brands to work with her, so I guess it's always good to be reminded that everyone gets nervous about things, even those who appear not to. I must remember that next time I get anxious about doing something. xx
ReplyDeleteSame here!!! I swear, sometimes I contemplate going that short myself. Maybe one day. :) Nora is such an admirable person - not just for her stellar fashion sense, but also for business savvy and the way she not only participants in, but also supports others, in our wonderful vintage community.
DeleteThank you for your terrifically nice comment, sweet Cate.
Oodles of hugs,
♥ Jessica
Oh Cate.. It's easy to fake confidence from behind the screen. I find vintage events can be daunting because some girls are there to compete. I don't believe in competing when it comes to fashion - everyone has their own style and body shapes to work with! I often encourage brands to collaborate with me because I believe in promoting good businesses and small business owners xxx
DeleteAh, the lovely Nora. Lovely interview, you can add me to the list of bloggers who'd love a Lena Hoschek collaboration! I am alsi intrigued to see Nora's early posts and like Ci-Ci will be having a look.
ReplyDeleteI hope to meet Nora one day too, at least she's moved a bit closer now!!
Xx
Ooohhh, toss my name on that list, too. Lena's offerings are sublime. If only they were within the pocketbook reach of more of us vintage adoring gals. I'd love it if they did a lower priced diffusion line one day (I bet it would sell out in a flash!).
DeleteI really hope you guys are able to meet as well. It's awesome that she has so many online friends already, yourself included you, in her new home country.
Thank you very much for your great comment, lovely Porcelina. I hope that you're having a wonderful week.
Big hugs,
♥ Jessica
Nora is amazingly gorgeous! Love her stuff!
ReplyDeleteIsn't she though? She's one seriously beautiful lady and the vintage world is richer thanks to her stylish presence in it.
DeleteMany thanks for your lovely comment. Big hugs!
♥ Jessica
beautiful style !!
ReplyDeletesuper interesting & fun. thanks for sharing.
It is my sincere pleasure. This ongoing interview series has become one of my favourite elements of my blog and I always adore hearing from others, like yourself, who really enjoy it, too.
DeleteHave a fantastic weekend,
♥ Jessica
Nora is lovely! Her blog is so nice.
ReplyDeleteSteampunk-meets-WWII is dieselpunk, but it's a very small community compared to the steampunk one. I tend to ponk around on the fringes of it, being a lover of SF, vintage, and vintage SF.
Isn't it though? I always really admire her photos. Not only the fabulous outfits in them, but the quality and beauty of the images themselves.
DeleteDieselpunk is very cool! I've never stepped foot into the realm (nor that of steampunk) myself, but like yourself, I very much admire it from the perimeter. Perhaps one day I'll hop over the fence and give 'er a go. :)
Big hugs & happy weekend wishes,
♥ Jessica
Really fab mid century style I love her instagram
ReplyDeleteRetro rover
Same here! I adore the high quality images, as well as the nicely balanced blend of fashion + lifestyle photos that she shares there.
DeleteThank you very much for your lovely comment, Kate. Have a fabulous weekend!
♥ Jessica
Another excellence in the world of blogs and vintage style! Any photos that you posted in this post shows a sensational dress, I say "this is my favorite", but each photo has a style and clothing too good! I am happy to hear that for her blogging is the first love in this virtual universe, that goes for me, even if a blog is much more challenging than other company, however, is a deeper way to express a passion and a personality, and this is more important than the effort!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jessica for these "windows" that make us learn more about the wonderful women, like you!

Excellently said, dear Serena. I think that a lot of people, especially those who do not work or otherwise devote themselves largely to running websites, aren't entirely aware of the staggering amount of effort, time, energy and passion that can go into actively maintaining a frequently updated blog, let alone a fashion one (which brings with it the time needed for conducting photo shoots and then selecting and editing one's photos). It's truly wonderful that even with the continual rise of social media trumping blogging, some of us (bloggers and readers alike) so enjoy and appreciate the more concrete (relatively speaking) nature of this digital medium.
DeleteThank you very much for your terrific comment, my friend. I hope that you have a fun filled last weekend of January.
♥ Jessica
Love her blog and her impeccable sense of style. A true fashion icon. Thanks for the profile! x
ReplyDeleteIsn't she though? Nora has the sort of fashion sense that you don't soon forget. It's steeped in the past, yet thoroughly original and befitting of today's world, too. I've been hooked for years now and will continue to be for as long as she's online.
DeleteBig hugs & many thanks for your lovely comment, sweet Erin. Have a great weekend!
♥ Jessica
I think I found Nora's blog back in 2011 - it was definitely early on, and I was so excited to find another Aussie girl to follow! I love that Nora blogs both true vintage and reproduction too and the way in which all of her outfits are not only beautiful but sensible and practical for every day life. I follow a wide range of blogs from very Vogue style high fashion editorial, to every day style and Nora's blog is the perfect balance of those two things. It has been wonderful to watch Nora's style develop and her blog grow over the years, and get to know her better too of course!
ReplyDeleteDeco Darling
You two - along with Bonita - were some of the first Aussie vintage bloggers that I started following, too, and I've been wildly inspired by all of you ever since. I completely second what you said about Nora's style. It's fresh, fun and all kinds of fabulous!
DeleteBig hugs & many thanks for your wonderfully nice comment,
♥ Jessica
Nice!...She has such a marvellous Style...Cheers!
ReplyDeleteThat she most certainly does, Aure. Happy to have introduced you to Nora's blog (if I did so, I mean :)).
DeleteHave a fabulous February!
♥ Jessica
So jealous of all of the clothes. Isn't she lovely and her choices are so perfect.
ReplyDeleteNora really does have a sensational wardrobe, I completely agree. I love the bold, creative ensembles that she dreams up. They're always equal parts fun and chic.
DeleteBig hugs & happy Wednesday wishes,
♥ Jessica
Nora, you are too too lovely! So genuine and caring and all those good things on top of being super-chic.
ReplyDeleteAnd Jessica, I love the interview questions you pick, they bring out such great responses. I love the fashion predictions and I'm keen to see some of those happen myself!
Isn't she though! So wonderfully well said, sweet Tanith.
DeleteThank you very much!!! I really try to give a lot of thought to the questions that I ask each interviewee and to make them as unique as possible (relative to the fact that many of us share the same sorts of interests, fashions, and topics that we blog about, that is). It warms my heart to know that you enjoy reading them.
Oodles of hugs & happy start of February wishes,
♥ Jessica
I absolutely loved this interview. It is always nice to ready interviews of bloggers where they answer questions they don't normally speak about on their own blogs! Nora is so elegant inspiring, and your questions are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, beautiful gal. I'm touched that you brought that point up, because such questions (in a friendly, unobtrusive manner, of course) are something that I try to weave into each "Meet a Fellow Vintage Blogger" interview that I conduct. It's awesome to let folks know more about the things one may already be recognized for, but it's also important to let even more of one's multi-faceted personality and interests shine through, too.
DeleteMany hugs & happy Wednesday wishes,
♥ Jessica
I always enjoy looking at Nora's outfits, she wears some really lovely pieces and does great accessorising. I enjoy reading her blog and it was good to learn more about it's origins from your interview. Another fantastic one!
ReplyDeleteIsn't she a sensational accessorizer! I adore the fun, vibrant, fresh combos she comes up with and how marvelously they work with her passion for (wearing) colour.
DeleteOodles of thanks & happy start of February wishes coming your way!
♥ Jessica
You are better than google, you always show me the best content ever, either if it yours or other blogs!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesomely lovely compliment, sweet Ines. It genuinely made me beam ear-to-ear. I adore that I'm able to help introduce you to new blogs and that you enjoy this fun ongoing interview series.
DeleteBig hugs & happy first week of February wishes,
♥ Jessica
What a wonderfully elegant lady Nora is, I feel I'm going to have to keep myself away from her blog or else I'll be lost in it for quite some time!
ReplyDeleteOoohh, but it's such a marvelously chic and inspiring rabbit's hole to venture down! :)
DeleteThank you very much for your lovely comment, sweet Taylor. I hope that you're a terrific Valentine's weekend!
Big hugs,
♥ Jessica
She's one stylish vintage sweetheart, if there ever was one! I've never heard of Nora, but definately want to include her in my vintage Bloglovin' feed. Thank you for yet another lovely interview, dear. :)
ReplyDeleteIt is my sincere pleasure, dear Sanne. I'm delighted to have been able to introduce you to this wonderfully fashionable lady who now resides on the same continent as you. :)
DeleteOodles of hugs & happy Valentine's weekend wishes,
♥ Jessica
Aww I loved reading this! Nora is one of my favourite vintage bloggers (as are you) and we've been blog friends for several years now. We actually walked past each other in Sydney once back when she was living here and kind of looked at each other wondering if we were looking at the right person and then confirmed it later on the internet! It's such a shame we didn't get to actually hang out before she moved but she's such a lovely person, and of course she always looks incredible!
ReplyDeletejessica - littlehenrylee.com
Ooooh, what a small (stylish!) world. That is really cool. It's lovely that you were able to verify that you had indeed seen one another later on. Who knows, perhaps you'll get to meet (and chat) again one day, perhaps in the UK, where Nora resides now.
ReplyDeleteI hope that you're doing well and enjoying a great month, sweet dear. Thank you for your wonderful recent blog comments. It's always a joy to hear from you.
Many hugs,
♥ Jessica
