Pinup with a Passport – Organising Photoshoots Whilst Travelling

August 12, 2019July 24, 20191 Comment

I always get told to 'pack light' whenever I'm getting ready for a trip overseas. It's not always easy to pack light especially with a pinup wardrobe if you like to go all out every day, it gets especially more difficult when you plan to do photoshoots on your travels. As an avid traveler, I've … Continue reading Pinup with a Passport – Organising Photoshoots Whilst Travelling

February 11, 2019February 11, 20193 Comments

As we get older, birthdays can become more of a chore than a celebration. After an awful year, I was determined to ensure that this years birthday was full of love, light, colour and joy.

Pinup with a Passport – Montreal

July 20, 2018July 18, 2018Leave a comment

Before I even got to Montreal, a traveller I met on the way to New York told me that no one would speak to me if it wasn't in French. To be honest, I was a little worried because my French is absolutely terrible, but at the end of the day, I could manage on … Continue reading Pinup with a Passport – Montreal

The month of June was the beginning of a travel adventure through the United States and Canada. Packing for a long holiday isn't easy especially when you like to dress up, so I tried my best to pack a pinup capsule wardrobe for my month long travels.

Pinup with a Passport – New York Adventures

June 25, 2018June 14, 2018Leave a comment

Start spreading the news, Im leaving today ... For the majority of my time in New York I had Frank Sinatra singing 'New York' in my head which I must admit, made it all the more exciting. Waking up in the city that never sleeps had a peculiar exhilaration that cannot be described; the city … Continue reading Pinup with a Passport – New York Adventures

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!

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 πŸ’™
