Geisha

Birds of a Feather Kimono Sleeve Playsuit // Oh My Love

Fan // Bought from La Ramblas, Barcelona

Geisha Bag // Gift from a friend

White Cleated Sandals // Ebay

Yet another beautiful item from Oh My Love, there SS15 stuff has just been sooooo good!

Covered with beautiful birds (I think they are Cranes?)  and blossoms print this is a really unique piece which is great both as daywear worn with gladiators or flats and heels and a paired with scarlet lippy for an alternative as a dress for an evening out.

I also really like plunge necklines so that added in is a great bonus (boob tape is def needed as is not as tight fitting as some of my other plunge neck playsuits!)

As with quite alot of Oh My Love things, they do tend to make prints of things in multiple styles as Motel also do, so if the Geisha look isn't for you or you wanna check out the strappy version of this playsuit you can find it here. Personally I have always wanted a kimono and this is the best and closest thing I have ever had like one! 

I managed to shoot this in the Holywell Gardens which is usually home to a local am-dram group at this time of year whilst they perform Shakespeare but managed to nab a time where they were having a day off or perhaps just before they arrived as the place was totally deserted. Its is one of my fave places to go when I wanna chill out :)

You Are The Constellations

Stardust Sprinkle 70's Pussy Bow Blouse (worn as a dress)  // Oh My Love

Gold Saturn Hair Rings // Regal Rose

Black Leather Jacket // Pretty Little Thing

Platform Chunky Suede Thigh High Boots // Sole Affair

Messy plaits & floaty sheer shirt vibes..

Still trying, and failing, to create a braided look so went for this messy undone plait (which came even more undone in the wind!) for the weekend and some amazing gold Saturn hair rings from Regal Rose to accessorise. <3 love them! will def go back and get the sun and the feather ones.

These also go perfect with my starry new blouse from Oh My Love, saw this very Valentino-esk print blouse on their website and knew it had to be mine straight away! unlike my other pussybow blouse which is more shirtlike and waitressy, this one has abit of a more floaty feel, with pretty sleeves and can be worn as a dress or tucked in shorts - two outfits for the price of one!

The platform thigh highs have also made a comeback too! though never quite banished away till the autumn (you can never trust the pesky British weather!) I was missing them alot and thought as the weather had decided to go all windy and rainy again last week when it was so full of promise the week before they could come back out again!

How are you dressing for the transeasonal weather? :)

Lolita

Black Velvet Lace Collar Skater Dress // Oh My Love (now half price £16!)

White Cleated Sandals // Ebay

Ah, have been wanting one of these black collared dresses for aaggges but being really picky at the one I wanted and missing out! my main criteria was that i wanted a skater skirt one and it had to be long sleeved...also with white cuffs if possible though tbh I could easily add these on to this dress if I fancy it, that way would be even more lolita style! 

Lolita has always been one of my fave fashion types to follow, having been a collector of all things Harajuku before Gwen Stefani's Harajuku lovers days! I still have a collection of lolita and cyber goth postcards around my bedroom fireplace and a custom cosplay outfit. Just love love love the creativity of japanese fashion.. .cannot wait to go to Harajuku one day to check out all the lolita and crazy cool styles of Japan fashion!

Spring 15 Edit - Lust List

This month is without a doubt the worst & longest wait for payday, am now at the point where I'm having to come up with creative dinner ideas from whatever is in the cupboards, although it is the easiest month to make a wishlist as once the sales have started to dwindle, boom! in comes all this pretty spring stuff & this year its all about 70's 70's 70's!

Topshop never let us down when it comes to any vintage style trends and again they do not disappoint. It has the most dreamiest collection of pinafores, smock dresses and boots which I can't wait to try and see if I can get my hands on when its payday, guarantee these will sell out fast! Here are my best picks of Spring and what's new online & in stores at the mo!
