Miss Sou’West Vintage Fest Pageant 2019

November 18, 2019January 23, 2021Leave a comment

It's been a while since I wrote about a pageant that I participated in and it's a topic I love to share. I'm hoping one day I can start a mini series about pinup pageants but at the moment, I'm not feeling like I'm the best person to give advice. Anywho, here we are a … Continue reading Miss Sou’West Vintage Fest Pageant 2019

Miss Vintage Kiss 2019

I'm very lucky in that my job allows me to travel around the country so I get to meet many wonderful pinups within the community, go to lots of vintage events and even participate in pageants. I was very excited when I was lucky enough to be in Brisbane around the time of this years … Continue reading Miss Vintage Kiss 2019

It's about time I properly discuss my adventures as a Miss Pinup International 2019 finalist, so here we go! Last year, competing in Pinup Doll Australia, we were told that the winner would receive a Golden Ticket that instantly qualifies them to be a finalist in the following years Miss Pinup International competition. I really … Continue reading Miss Pinup International

Monthly​ Outfit Recap – July

August 16, 2019August 13, 2019Leave a comment

After a very much needed break, it's about time I catch up on last months outfits. As most of you already know, I was in Europe spending some quality time with my family. This was also time for me to take a break and have some self-care time. I didn't get dressed up every day … Continue reading Monthly​ Outfit Recap – July

Monthly Outfit Recap – June

July 1, 2019June 30, 2019Leave a comment

So June was not the greatest month for me; I was still really ill which meant I spent most of my days in bed unable to work or really do anything. This means that there were very few times I actually left my house and if I did it was to go to the doctors. … Continue reading Monthly Outfit Recap – June

Do you enjoy winter holidays or summer holidays? I suppose summer is a bit easier but there's something delightfully cosy about winter adventures. What would be your ideal winter holiday?
Big boots bows make me happy. I'm trying really hard to get back to some sort of normal work routine but I've honestly been struggling. I'm not sure when I'll be well enough to film and edit and get back into the swing of things but I'm trying my best each day.
Sundays are an odd day, they have this laziness to them that's something to be savored but by the evening I'm stressed about the week to cone. Anyone else feel like this? I personally think we should add another day to the weekend so I can get all my housework done.
It's looking like a quiet weekend of recovery for me, what are your plans? What would be your perfect weekend?
Sad story about this dress: I made it using #butterick6284 during lockdown and absolutely loved it. After a few wears I took it to the laundry and somehow it fell behind the laundry basket where it wasn't visible. After a good while I found it but noticed it had some odd sun bleaching right on the front of the bodice. Now I wear it around the house but I'm tempted to remake it from the same fabric. Should I make another copy? Or should I just accept it as a house dress?
I'm in recovery mode and it's driving me crazy. I wanted to work today but just couldn't due to pain. I miss my normal routine, blogging and sewing. I don't think I'll be able to film this week but I'll try my best for a video next week.
I can't believe it's already wednesday! The week is just whizzing by and there's still so much to do. I'd much rather be lounging in pretty dresses. What would you rather be doing right now?
What are your weekend plans? I'm having an Endo flare up so if I manage to get up off the couch, that's me being productive. In spirit I'll be off adventuring ❤️
Is it weird to miss a certain fabric? I'm still obsessed with this yellow retro floral fabric from @pbsfabrics and I've already got it in green and soon to be pink. But, I want to make another dress out of the yellow. I know I'm on a fabric shopping ban but should I break it to get some more of this gorgeous yellow? It's just so pretty and I want it on a dress with sleeves! Thoughts?
Is everyone ready for Easter weekend? I'm not putting up my decorations this year due to renovations but I still have some Easter baking to do. Do you have an Easter tradition?
