Berry Plaits

I thought my silk shirt went really nicely with these berries, so I asked my partner to take some photos of me in front of them. He made me laugh too much so in most of them I'm about to crack heehee! Think I need to put some poppers on this shirt, alas the chest is too much for it. Spent a while fixing this coat the other night, always thousands of repairs to do on all my clothes, but it has all gotta be worth it for the things you love! This outfit definitely cheered me up today. Now off to do some baking, just found a recipe for Welsh cakes mmm...

New Etsy Stock!

Loads of great stuff for sale in my Etsy shop at the moment! I'm always out sourcing new stock so if there's anything in particular you'd like to see more of, send me a message and I'll see what I can do! Here's a little taster of what's coming into the shop soon...

Bye for now!

So hard to say no!

Found these 90s zip-up Dr Marten's yesterday and I am having trouble tearing myself away from having them myself. They are basically exactly what I dream about (when I'm not dreaming about getting pulled to the bottom of the sea) apart from they're a size 5 and I'm a 5 1/2! So I gotta let go, just let go woman... Also realised I like posing with my hands in my hair. Good.

Evening sunlight

After I took some photos of me in some of the new shop stock I've recently acquired, I decided to document my outfit today. This is one of my favourite outfits, so easy to wear, warm and comfy. The 60s/70s poloneck featured elsewhere on here as a fabric scan, it's so beautiful with a glimmer in the fabric, my ma got it for me. The trousers are high-waisted tuxedo pants, brand name lost now, and the coat is from a sale a lady had a couple of years ago, she was getting rid of loads of vintage clothes from when she was a costume designer - such sweet luck to hear about her and now I have no idea how to find her again - she could have been a mirage, I definitely do have very intense dreams about discovering huge vintage treasuries... Ah, sweet dreams! It's quite nice to document everyday outfits, I really learn to appreciate them every time I wear them. Only 1 day left for free postage in my Etsy shop, come and get 'em while they're hot!

Autumn Princess

These are some snaps taken in the burst of sun we had today. I've dyed my hair a new colour and I keep alternating between loathing and loving it, but I put some plaits, twists and paper flowers in it and I'm on the loving end now. Everything apart from the paisley pyjamas are available in my Etsy store right now, which has also got a spooky Halloween discount of free postage on everything til 5/11/13! More photos coming in another post! Once we'd taken these photos the heavens opened and I could take no more, so gotta do that and hoping for a sunny Halloween! Now I've just got to choose a frighteningly good costume...

Birthday Mermaid

I made a mermaid for my sister for her 30th birthday earlier in October, she was so fun to make! Previously I've made a yellow cat, an albino mole, a black and white cat and a mint-haired lady doll. I really enjoy finding scraps of material and moulding them into something else. Next on the cards is a doll of the Biddenden maids, can't wait to get started! Here's some more photos of the little mermaid...

Cold winds

I love this outfit so much that I wore yesterday, the perfect icy-cold-wind-weather outfit I think! I also either forgot/didn't realise that this pink silk blouse could button up to the neck too so it was an exciting discovery finding out! I cannot take a selfie to save my life, but I love this outfit so here is one anyway!
Been filling up my etsy and my ebay shops too, so check them out!
