OOTD: Purple Harlequin

Aloha, sweet peas! I hope you're enjoying the UK sun we have had over the last few days! I certainly have.  Today's outfit post has to be one of my favourites! Sometimes, I like to create an outfit around one piece of clothing and this time it was one of my beloved Pinup Girl Clothing Harlequin Jenny Skirts in Purple. These skirts have revolutionized my wardrobe! Initially, when I first got them I thought they wouldn't get much wear as I thought they'd be really hard to style, but boy was I wrong! They match with so much because the colour palette of the pattern features a lot of shades and tones.

I love this outfit because it is so so simple, but I still felt sassy as hell! And I just adore how the purple contrasts with my copper hair. Also, my first outfit post featuring the most amazing-incredible-beautiful-fancy-drop-dead-gorgeous bag I have ever laid eyes on that is the bag I designed myself and was made by the amazing Dots N' Bows. It just so happened to go perfectly with my outift ;)

OOTD: Casual Sundays

Aloha, spring chickens! How are you all doing? Hopefully much better since the sun has decided to make an appearance (hence me dusting off my beloved Jelly Shoes)! Today I have another casual outfit post. I think I have enough outfit posts and ideas to do my 'The Casual Pinup' post very soon since I feel like I never properly dress up anymore! Although, I do feel just as sassy in a pair of jeans and a t-shirt nowadays! It's all about comfort 8-D 

I have worn the *crap* out of my Lady K Love's Hug Me Baby jeans and I know you're probably all getting sick of them (to be honest, I don't think that's even possible with jeans as awesome as these!). I have sprinkled a little subtle western-ness into this outfit with the bandana and cactus brooch, so I hope you enjoy!

My 5 Minute Beehive Tutorial!

Aloha, gorgeous! So, guessing by the title you've come here for a 5 minute beehive tutorial? Well... That is certainly what you'll get! And no, this isn't one of those says-5-minutes-actually-takes-20-tutorial, this genuinely does take 5 minutes... Well at least when you know what you're doing it does! I'd like to say this is probably one of my (very few) signature styles and I've been rocking it for at least a year. Seeing as I have very frizz-prone hair, I love a good secure up-do and I love it even more when I can do it half-awake at far too early in the morning in a matter of minutes before work! Although it is super easy and quick, it often provokes "It must take you AGES to do your hair in the morning!!"and "Do you do your own hair!?" (No, I have a team of expertly trained stylists waiting by my bedside;'D) kind of statements from strangers. The best thing about this style is there isn't really much to it! The only 'equipment' you need is some bobby pins, a hair band, some hair spray (optional), a brush and/or some sort of teasing comb (again, optional) and most importantly a hair scarf. Nylon are my favourite to use but feel free to use whatever you have and just fold it appropriately.
