Make it magnificent – Atomic Vintage Festival 2017

Sorry – I bloody love an excuse to sing Blondie. Anyway, I had a great time at this year’s Atomic Festival. As per last year, I was ‘working’ for my doll Bettina Scarlett as an ‘Atomic Bombshell’ but that didn’t get in the way of me, Stef and my other babes having a rollicking good time.ContinueContinue reading “Make it magnificent – Atomic Vintage Festival 2017”

Alliteration a la mode – Pin Up Picnic in the Park and Cocktails in the City

Wow, this was a bumper weekend for socialising.

Pretty Polly: Parrot Prom Dress from Rocky My Vintage

You might remember my previous Fugu brooch post praising cute animal-themed apparel. This parrot print dress by Rocky my Vintage perfectly quenches my need for animal print clothes in a subtle, summery way.

Fug-oh she bettah don’t: Erstwilder puffer fish perfection from Gliterally

Most of my clothing decisions are based around cute animals. If the garments themselves don’t feature a cute animal, I need to find a more subtle way to sneak one into my outfit – through the magic of accessories!
