Pinup up abroad - Outfits

Aloha my cherrypies so I have just come back from an amazing holiday in Tenerife filled with sunshine, sea and one too many cocktails. Tenerife is beautiful Spanish island in the Canary's and is a really amazing place to go on holiday if you get the chance as the weather is gorgeous and the food and drinks are plenty haha. So my lovelies if you have been looking at my Instagram you will have seen what I have been wearing abroad so I thought id just got into a little detail on what I wore and where I bought it.

My favourite outfit of the holiday was this gorgeous skirt and top by The Oblong Box Shop. All the clothes from this shop are amazing and I love how the top goes perfectly with the skirt. The skirt is from the palm springs collection and I just love everything in this collection and definitely have some things on my wish list for the future. The quality of the pieces are lovely and the top is stretchy so its super comfy. The print on the skirt is gorgeous too as I am just flamingo mad. As you know I'm also pineapple mad as well so I had to pair this outfit with this super cute pineapple bag from New Look.

My second outfit is this amazing twin set by Collectif clothing. Collectif is my one stop shop for everything vintage inspired and when I saw this set with the flamingo and toucan print I knew it would look perfect on a holiday. Its a tropical dream, the material is really high quality, but I did have to wait till night to wear this as the material is quite thick so it was too hot to wear during the day. I also put a real flower in my hair with this outfit as I felt its gave it that extra tropical touch.

My third outfit was was pineapple tastic. My pineapple print skirt was from Primark last year, the material on in was very light so it was perfect to keep me cool. The top was from H&M recently and I am just madly in love with the sequin pineapple as its super gorgeous and sparkly. I am also wearing a super cute glittery pineapple clip from Alternate Normality but unfortunately you cant see it in the picture.

My next outfit was also one of my favourites as it was a great vintage buy. I managed to snag it at a vintage kilo event after seeing a lady pick it up and falling in love with the dress, so as you do I followed her round the event in hopes that she would put it down, and she did, lucky me haha. I also paired it with this great straw hat from H&M. I'm really into my hats now for the summer after seeing how Modern June Cleaver over at junebugsandgeorgiapeaches looks in hers, she has totally inspired me and brought me over the hat side of life!

My last outfit is this super cute combo of deadly dames and watermelons which I think totally works haha. The skirt is again from Primark and I managed to pick it up when I picked up the pineapple skirt as they had some really cute circle skirts in last year. I paired it with this amazing deadly dames top from Pin Up Girl Clothing that I hadn't worn before but I have no idea why because I love it! Its super flattering and because its black its very versatile so I will definitely be bringing out this bad boy more often!.

Hope you enjoyed reading, thanks Guys and Dolls x

Lust Haves #3

Aloha everyone, so I'm constantly lurking the internet for things I would love to buy and this week was no different as I found some beautiful things that I thought I just had to share with you all.

So the first thing I found was this amazing Tabatha top by Lady K Loves , I'd heard some great things about their hug me baby jeans so I thought I'd have a sneaky look on their website and this top instantly stood out to me. I love harlequin print so this top is just perfect and I think the colour is just beautiful too. One of the things I really love about this top is that you can wear in two different ways, in a simple halterneck style but you can also cross it over your chest and tie it at the back which gives a really lovely criss cross effect.

 I came across this brand recently on Etsy called Desperate Beatnik and I instantly fell in love with these beautiful Confetti Lucite pendant earrings. I love the style of them as I don't own any dangly Lucite earrings and I adore how classy they look too. The colours in these earrings are stunning too, I bet they really twinkle in the light.

So lastly on my Lust have list is this amazing dress by Collectif and I think this dress must have come out of my dreams! It's perfect in every way, the print is a tropical dream with flamingos, pineapples and atomic symbols and I simply adore the Dolores cut of it. This dress is a definite must have for me, well done Collectif you've out done yourself!

Novelty Bags

Aloha everyone, ok so as I mentioned before I have a serious love for all things novelty and whimsical, and when it comes to bags this is no exception as I hold a special place in my heart for them. I've never been much of a shoe girl, mainly because I'm too clumsy and always end up scuffing them which upsets me deeply but when it comes to bags it is a love that can not be extinguished. I love a good vintage bag as much as the next vintage gal but cute novelty bags always get me.

My favourite novelty bag of all time has to be my flamingo bag, it was love at first sight when I saw this and I knew I had to have one. It super duper cute and I love how when I use it so many people comment on it. If you looking to snag your very own flamingo bag I got mine from the wonderful Eye Candy Sugar on Etsy.

New Look have started doing a really great range of novelty bags lately that I love. They brought out a fruit collection and a junk food collection that I just absolutely adored! But they seem to do a new collection each season and I definitely recommend checking them out. The only down size to these bags are that they super tiny so they are great for a night out but not so much during the day. 

I ADORE Kate Spade and her bags are sooo amazing, I saw this bag on the lovely thesoubrettebrunette blog and knew I needed to hunt it down. I love how this bag reminds me of a retro trip to a drive in cinema.

So as I've mentioned previously I go absolutely bananas for anything Pineapple related. I saw this bag in a magazine advertising that it was at Asda which is a UK supermarket and I wanted it so bad! I looked for it everywhere and couldn't find it and I was so disheartened until my good friend finally found it in an Asda near her house! I'm so happy she did because it's just a most have for any tropical gal.

I hope you all enjoyed reading through my novelty bag collection, that I have no intention of stopping collecting! Because life is just too short for a boring bag ;)
