Vintage inspired TV shows worth a binge

March 1, 2021March 1, 2021Leave a comment

It's that lovely time of year where you are free to relax, indulge and binge watch your favourite tv shows. If you're anything like me, I love a tv show based in the 40's and 50's so I can enjoy the fashion and styling along with hopefully a great storyline, awesome characters and fun moments. … Continue reading Vintage inspired TV shows worth a binge

Belle Poque Review

October 23, 2020October 19, 2020Leave a comment

My lilac is in bloom (well one of them is) which means it's definitely almost summer and I can start putting away the fluffy jumpers and blankets for another half a year or so. To replace them, I will start finding all my shorts and cute little tops because I am ready for a summer … Continue reading Belle Poque Review

We all know one of my favourite companies is Heart My Closet; they create beautiful custom garments, have great ethics and customer service and of course, their dresses are drop dead stunning.

That’s a Wrap – Chasing the Cherry Blossoms

October 9, 2020October 13, 2020Leave a comment

We are officially in spring meaning all the flowers are in bloom, I'm becoming addicted to hay fever tablets and I can dress aggressively floral. Spending time amongst the new season flowers is always a highlight of Spring and I try to be outside as much as I can to enjoy the simplicity of natures … Continue reading That’s a Wrap – Chasing the Cherry Blossoms

Sometimes it's scary how well Google knows you and what you like to buy. At the end of last year I kept getting recommended this Acorn Rattan bag from @olliella and you bet ya bottom I loved it. Google knew I would want a bag designed for children for myself. Ah, well played Google, well played.
This weekend was all about recovering from my recent operation but it gave me time to start planning my next vintage ghibli sewing project.
When dressing in the vintage style, many of us feel the pressure to style ourselves in a way to suit. Red lips and curled hair become iconic for vintage styling but for people like me, styling my hair can be a bit of a challenge.
When I was a kid, I went through a pretty strong Hello Kitty phase. My entire desk was covered in every piece of Hello Kitty stationery I could get my hands on, much of which I still have today. The new collection from @erstwilder with @hellokitty made my nine year old self squeal with joy! Oh and of course @miss.vintage.orchid is also Hello Kitty obsessed!

This little bunny wants to wish you all a wonderful and safe Easter.
When you watch one too many 80s films right before an Easter shoot. Bette Midler would be proud 💚
Be honest, how often do you wash your foam/sponge curlers? I try to wash mine at least once a month as I use multiple times a week. They can start to look a bit gross and sad if you don't keep them clean.
Have you ever procrastinated so hard that years go by and you still haven't done the thing you set out to do? Well, that happened to me; for over two and a half years I have wanted to create a mini-series on my blog (and now YouTube) where I take my favourite Studio Ghibli films and characters and turn them into a vintage version of themselves.
Self care is the best kind of care 💙
