True Romance

I have long been a fan of the film True Romance. The cinematography, that pink Cadillac, the AMAZING clothes Patricia Arquette wears (a cobalt blue hoodie under leopard print coat is such an inspired choice), that sweet Xylophone soundtrack, Slater, Pitt, Walken...what's not to LOVE?

So anyway after having shot the latest vintage outfits for the Cat's Eyes boutique and going back through the shots of the cute-as-a-button Vickie with her white blonde hair, I was reminded of my all time fave film! Got to dig it out for a watch again. Can't help but think I was subconsciously inspired by it...






Oh and Brad...

36 Weeks...

It's been waaaaaay too long since I've blogged! So I'm 36 weeks pregnant now (where has the time gone?), I'm ever so excited about meeting my little one and have been busy getting everything ready for the new arrival. I kind of feel like my brain has been taken over by baby stuff with not too much room for anything else...nature ay! I've still been doing the odd vintage shoot though for the Cat's Eyes ASOS Marketplace, which keeps me feeling like myself and not just an expectant mumma.


Here are some of my fave shots from the last few shoots...with thanks to the lovely Beth, Lisa, Emma and Risha for doing a spot of modelling!


Until the next time...peace and love

New Vintage Picks

Hellooooo! It's been a while since I've had time to update my ASOS Marketplace boutique, but I was lucky enough to get a day of shooting in the sunshine with my pretty friend Beth the other day! I Heart Beth's look, the bob, the pout...too cute! So I was chuffed when she agreed to be my dress-up doll for the day. Here are my favourite photos from the shoot...
Vintage Floral Button-up Blouse
Vintage Peter-pan Collar Midi Dress
Vintage Floral Seventies Shirt
Vintage Style Floral Smock Dress
(can't beat a good loafer and sock combo)
Vintage Pleated Short Skirt

That's it for now...getting re-focused so shouldn't be long until the next "new vintage picks" post yay! 
Until the next time
Peace and Love

Garms of the Day no. 12...Expecting


Lately I have encountered the biggest styling challenge of my life...dressing my 4months pregnant body! My latest news is that my boyfriend and I are expecting a baby! Very very very very super super super super excited. More excited than I've been about anything in my whole entire life.

For the last 29years I've got used to my body and developed my style of dressing, knew exactly what suited me and could practically get dressed in the dark. Well the last couple of months have presented me with an expanding waistline and suddenly MASSIVE boobs, meaning no more skimpy shorts, super skinny jeans (except for maternity ones...more on that later) and tight dresses for me! I am finally starting to figure out after a bit of shopping and lots of tears (could be the hormones) what I can wear over these next few months to accommodate our little bubba growing. And here is my very first pregnancy garms of the day.... 

Until the next time peace and love x x x
