Cheshire Show & the 2good2Btrue Bus

If you were at the Cheshire Show last month, you might have noticed our 2good2Btrue bus and shop, where everything is just £1 each! Here are some photos from the event...




and we had a Retro Room shop too, with kaftans proving very popular...!





We now have a Retro Room & 2good2Btrue shop inside Afflecks, Manchester (on the third floor) and our next pop up shop will be at the Manchester Markets in August so look out for that! :o)

Retro Room Lookbook Part 2

As promised, here are some more of our Retro Room lookbook photos. Our model was the very lovely Shelley Ann Johnson, and once again we had rain and cold weather when shooting outside, so we couldn't venture out very far! All of these photos were taken on Minshull Street in Knutsford.







We've enjoyed seeing you put together your retro looks in store too!
Pop in and see us soon...

Bringing Vintage to Knutsford


Retro Room is the new fashion experience being brought to Knutsford by Porr’s Collection.

Porr’s Collection, who have been successfully trading on Minshull Street for over 3 years, have decided to move with the times, well, back in time and are rebranding as Retro Room. Retro Room will still be stocking the fabulous and unique costume jewellery from Porr’s Collection that has gained the shop so many loyal and regular customers over the last few years and will be expanding the current range of freshwater & baroque pearl jewellery which has become a speciality at Porr’s.

“The new shop layout allows us to hugely increase our range of clothing to include Vintage and Retro, to go with our unique evening & day wear.”,  said Marie Mitchell, the shop manager.

“With designer brands, versatile work-wear, along with boho chic, super cute knitwear and stunning evening wear you’re sure to find something to suit all styles and situations, all at reasonable prices...”

…and as an added bonus, due to the success of our sister shop  in Chester, we have created a brand new mini version of 2 good 2 B true
 as a shop within a shop, inside Retro Room, Knutsford, offering budget fashion jewellery, accessories & pre-loved clothing all for only £1!

So if you want to find something unique and some real bargains, head to Retro Room at 10 Minshull Street, Knutsford.

For more information call in to see us, or contact Marie on 01565 650599 or e-mail

Colour of the Year: Radiant Orchid

"Radiant Orchid blooms with confidence and magical warmth that intrigues the eye and sparks the imagination. It is an expressive, creative and embracing purple—one that draws you in with its beguiling charm. A captivating harmony of fuchsia, purple and pink undertones, Radiant Orchid emanates great joy, love and health." - Pantone


For this year Pantone announced that the colour would be Radiant Orchid. We will be seeing this beautiful colour across fashion, beauty and interiors, and so we thought we would collect some photos together of our favourite jewellery pieces in this lovely shade!




Will you be embracing purple tones this year?
