November 29, 2021November 12, 2021Leave a comment

As a red lipstick enthusiast, nothing quite gives me a thrill as much as a brand new red lipstick. I cannot help but rejoice when I hear of a fellow pinup sister embark on a business venture with a new product and the latest item to hit our hypethetical shelves in a lovely little red … Continue reading D Perfect Red Lipstick by Dafna Review

For those of us in the Southern Hemisphere, summer is just around the corner so it's time to put away the cardigans and pull out the sandals just in time for the warm weather. You may remember a little while ago we reviewed the Honiara Makira shoes which were a pinup shoe perfect for the … Continue reading Anuha Yellow Shoe Review – Honiara Vintage

Ecosusi Vintage Inspired Bag Review

June 28, 2021June 6, 2021Leave a comment

As much as I love the glamour life, there's always been a part of my soul that's drawn to cottages, dusty libraries, and cardigans with matching skirts. I suppose the kids these day call this sort of aesthetic "dark academia" or a variation of "cottage core". This yearning for a simpler lifestyle with a deeper … Continue reading Ecosusi Vintage Inspired Bag Review

Honiara Vintage Shoe Review – Makira in White

In my wardrobe, I have heaps of tops, skirts, dresses and accessories but when it comes to footwear, I'm a little lost. I do have a selection of nice sensible heels, a couple of quirky shoes but what I really try to get a good range of is simple day wear shoes. My go to … Continue reading Honiara Vintage Shoe Review – Makira in White

Testing Vintage: White Shoulders Powder

January 15, 2021January 6, 20221 Comment

I dream of the day where I have my own home with a private boudoir room which I can spend some time primping and pampering myself. In my head, I am wearing a long and luscious pink gown, fluffy mule slippers and I am powdering my self with something beautiful and luxurious. I was indulging … Continue reading Testing Vintage: White Shoulders Powder

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?
