Hell Bunny Karen Dress

Aloha my cherry pies, I finally got a tripod whoop! So I thought it was about time that I did some outfit reviews and show you how I style my look. It was mine and my boyfriends anniversary this weekend so it was a good chance to get dolled up and a perfect time to show you lovely people what I wore.

So for our date I chose to wear the beautiful Karen dress by Hell Bunny clothing. I absolutely adore Hell Bunny from way back in my "mosher" days when I used to wear their unicorn dresses to now when I wear their gorgeous swing dresses. The fabric of Hell Bunny clothing is really well made so you can wear them again and again unlike some dresses. They make some amazing day wear with gorgeous prints that are so versatile! If you haven't got yourself a Hell Bunny dress then I suggest you do so. The Karen dress drew my eye firstly because of the colour as mint is truly my favourite colour so I thought this dress was stunning. The length of it is prefect for me as I prefer my dresses to fall just below the knee. I loved the buttoned down front and the kind of shirtwaister style of it too, I felt like a cute little 50s housewife in this dress, and bonus its covered in polka dots and who doesn't love them right?

To style it up I added a cute white belt as I love a nipped in waist, I thought this would go perfectly since it matched the colour of the polka dots. I then added in my hair this beautiful hair flower from Lady Lucks Boutique, I have to say that this is the most gorgeous hair flower I have, the colour is beautiful and I love the size of it. For jewellery I wore these great yellow beads that I got in a box from Style By Portobello which is a monthly subscription box and you get surprise vintage items each month!

And there you have it Guys and Dolls, hope you enjoyed reading.

Spotlight on - Style by Portobello

Aloha everyone, so I recently came across this amazing company called Style by Portobello which is great monthly subscription box. There are a lot of subscription boxes out there at the moment but I just love this one as you get handpicked vintage items from Portobello market straight to your door. I love how each month it's a surprise of what you’re going to get and who doesn’t like surprises right?

So for those of you who don't know, Portobello market is an amazing vintage market in London that sells all kinds of vintage treasures. As I live in sunny old Manchester its quite far away from London so this box for me is pure genius!

 

The company is run by a lovely woman called Nzinga who includes a lovely handwritten card in each box which I liked as I love a personal touch. The website is great too as when you sign up to your box you do a little survey so she can evaluate what kind of things to get for you at the market which I think is fab idea.

 So my first box came the other day and I was so excited to open it. The first item I got was this amazing 70s snake skin bag which I simply adore as I am a massive bag fan! I think this bag is going to be great in the summer and its really versatile so it will go with a lot of my outfits. I also got this really lovely scarf and gold chain which I love, I really cant wait to style them into my outfits! 

The boxes are priced at £35 a month which is a little more pricey than other different subscription boxes but I think for what you get it is definitely worth your money and everything you get is completely unique. If you would like your own Style by Portobello box go to Style by Portobello, I cant wait for my next months box to come :)
