Tropical Island!

These stunning earrings I'm featuring on the blog this week, is by a brand located on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland - called Revere Folie
(located on Etsy)
The lovely lady who's name is Angie owns and runs this business, and is a lover of all things vintage.  All of Revere Folie's earrings are designed, laser cut and put together using acrylic material, and all have a vintage design and flair to them.
All her designs are so unique and very well made and constructed.
These earrings by Revere Folie are called Glitter Island and come in two colours of pink or purple, I chose the purple pair.  I love the glitter hoops with the glitter palm tree, water and rising and/or setting sun set in the middle (so very tropical).
They are made out of acylic, and have a stainless stud backing to place in your pieced ears.  I have worn these earrings all day and they never pulled or felt heavy on my ears.
These earrings are currently listed to purchase for $30 (Aus).
I highly recommend this brand to anybody that's after a vintage inspired, unique, well constructed earrings!
This tropical inspired dress is by one of my favorite Australian brands Retrospec'd which is called Sophia Tahitian Dream.  I actually ordered mine through an Australian company called WildKittyClothing.
The dress is made from a 100% cotton twill, has a back zipper and a halter-neck that comes in two button hole settings to sit just right on your body.  It also has a cross-over bust and pleats. The skirt is also pleated and you can wear with or without a petticoat (I choose without for these photos).  I love the tropical print with the sailing boats, the palm trees, and red poppies.  This dress is listed on Wild Kitty Clothing website for $199.00 (Aus) and comes in sizes Aus 6 to Aus 18.
Accessories Include:
Gold Clogs from Lotta From Stockholm 
Wicker hand-bag from Pinup Girl Clothing 
Parasol from a local shopping chain.
Sunglasses and bangles thrifted
Hair-piece from Gigis Retro Closet
Faux pearl necklace from Collectif Clothing
These blog photos were taken a couple of weeks ago by Miss Vera Vamp at Mon Repos, Bundaberg, Queensland (sea turtles are well known here to lay their eggs)

In other news myself and Miss Vera Vamp are in a pinup pageant on Sunday called Take Your Tops Off at Hervey Bay, Queensland and is aid of breast cancer awareness and for hopefully one day a cure!  All of us pinups that are in the pageant have to wear pink.  I have my dress all picked out to wear on the day!
On Saturday we're also going to a pinup workshop, to learn a bit more about the art of pinup posing, make-up and hair, that I'm very much looking forward to.

Until next time!
