Space Girl

Today was a good post day, my Collectif parcel finally arrived, and I couldn't wait to try my Dolores tops on!

As a previous post mentioned, I was worried if they were going to fit or not, as I ordered them in size 10.

But I didn't need to worry, this top did not disappoint! 

Although there is no stretch in it, and you have to pull it on, there's a side zip and once you zip that up, it fits like a glove!

It's just so perfect, I want it all colours and patterns, and to never own another style top again, haha!

As you can see above, I paired my red Dolores top with my Cora skirt by Voodoo Skirt, which you've heard me banging on about. (Wearing a size Small)

I will definitely be a repeat outfit offender with this outfit, I have so much love for it!

((I apologise for the poor photo, my camera is 14megapixel, but I think my energy bulb isn't helping.))

Anyway, here's a close up of Dolores, and I also added my Bow&Crossbones planet brooch which you can't really see in the outfit photo, dammit.

And if you've been thinking about getting the Dolores top, I say go for it! It's so dreamy <3

Hope you had a wonderful new year

Embroidered Flamingo

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!

This little post is about one of my favourite presents I received, which was from my boyfriend. 

I had been swooning after this bag for a few months, however, I never ended up buying it. And luckily, my boyfriend remembered how much I had wanted it, because when he had asked me what I wanted, I never thought to even mention the bag. 

So when I opened it, I was surprised to say the least, but instantly fell in love with it.

It's by Banned, and retails about £34.99. It's a good size handbag, has plenty of compartments - two zip pockets, and two simple pockets (one is mobile sized). 

Apologises for lack of photo, the black lining made it impossible.

Anway, the embroidery is beautiful, and the detail even continues onto the back of the bag, as seen below.

The bag also comes with a removable shoulder strap, which clips on at each side of the bag. The strap's length can be adjusted too.

If you are going to be purchasing this, please note, the handles have small screws holding them, like a label will say, they do require tightening every so often.

I, stupidly, didn't read the label, so as I go to use the bag for first time, I was upset when the handle came out straight away, but after searching for the label, I realised the bag wasn't faulty at all, and the handle was really easy to fix.

After fixing the problem, I am now overly cautious and keep a small screwdriver in the bag.

Overall, I couldn't be happier with the bag, and I'm super grateful.

I did receive the Cora skirt from Voodoo Vixen (space girl skirt) from my boyfriend also, and had ordered myself two Banned cardigans, one that matches this bag, but I'll post about these soon!

Rosie

Hey there, my name is Rosie, and this is my blog.

I'm a rather tall (5'10") 21 year old Welsh girl still living at home until I go off to university. I'm currently studying Fashion and Clothing in college, and this is the area that I will be studying in university.

My style varies depending on my mood, and of course, the great British weather! I can wear anything from skinnies with band tees, blouses and wiggle skirts to 1950s/rockabilly type skirts or dresses. However, needless to say, I'm never without my winged eyeliner.

Whenever I'm not in college, I can be found either over my boyfriend's (of a year), or on the weekends I work. I work in a popular craft and hobby shop, which is particularly handy since I'm a student in the creative arts.

I would say this photo of my is recent, although it is 2 months old. 
I'm a natural brunette, but for the last good few years my hair has been mainly black, until about 10 months ago, when I got bored and need to add colour. Hence the pink! However, the first colour I added was blue. And now it's in the process of becoming red, if the red decides to take and stop becoming pink! 

Thanks for visiting my blog,
and until next time!
