Retro Caravan!

A little while ago I was given the opportunity to review the most wonderful printed dress by a UK vintage inspired clothing business called Victory Parade Collection this dress is called the Polly Pencil Caravan dress currently this dress is listed for 99 pounds. Which converts to $190 Australian dollars.
I just love all the wonderful printed dresses and dress styles Victory Parade has currently on offer for sale, so many unique and fun fabric prints! The reason I choose the caravan printed dress is I love retro 1950's/60's caravans and it was a print that stood out and grab my attention the most!
I highly recommend on buying yourself a gorgeous dress from Victory Parade Collection.

Victory Parade's dresses comes in sizes XXS to XXXL  I ended up ordering the XL which fitted my waist line quite nicely but was too big for my bust (due to having a small bust line) I ended up getting the top altered and taken in, which this dress now fits like a dream. This dress is made in a light cotton fabric, has a hidden zip down the back, has a back slit for easy walking, turnback red collar, tailored cap sleeves and red turnback pockets. 
The times I have worn this dress I have received great feedback for example asking questions like "where is my dress from?", "oh I love your dress" etc.
I had to wear my Erstwilder  Happy Glamper brooch with this dress. Such a great pairing!!

Accessories Include:
Red 'Gypsy Rose' hand-carved shoes from Lucky Lou Shoes
Bangles are thrifted
Vintage car necklace is thrifted
Red hair-scarf from an ebay seller 
Red retro cat-eye sunglasses from an ebay seller
Yellow Sun-jellies tote bag ordered through Vintage Pip

These photos were taken with a lovely lady's vintage caravan called "Doris" the caravan is so cute and I'm so very happy the owner allowed me to take photos in and around her caravan, as well as using some of her props, especially her retro style bike.  As I had been on the hunt for a vintage/retro caravan for quite sometime to take blog photos with - they're hard to come by in my area!
"Doris" resides on a tranquil private property and accessories/vintage business called Sunshine Adore here is the facebook link:  https://www.facebook.com/SunshineAdore/?fref=ts
I ended up buying a couple of cute floral earrings from Sunshine Adore.

In other news I've been really busy working nearly every day this week, a few days ago I was offered another position at work, which I accepted so I'm really looking forward to trying this new role out for a few months to see how I go!
I actually have this weekend off, I'm just wanting to relax and catch up with some household chores, plus re-colour my hair ready for next weekend in the pinup parade and rockabilly festival!

Until next time!

Let's Go Sailing!

I was recently given the opportunity to review this gorgeous swing skirt by an Australian rockabilly/pinup business called Ursalady Creations which you can find on their facebook page.  They also have a physical store in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.  Ursalady sells well-known vintage inspired women's & men's clothing brands, accessories, shoes, lingerie plus some home-wears. They also sell their own swing skirts, I choose their "pink yacht skirt" to blog - which is currently on sale for $45 Australian dollars.

There swing skirts come in 7 other prints and their size range's from small (26 inch waist) to 4XL (41 inch waist). I ordered the XL which is my usual waist size of 32 inches and it fits perfectly.
I love the pink fabric with the sailing boats around the bottom and the little nautical objects all over the skirt.
This skirt is made out of a light crisp cotton, is gathered, and has a back zipper and top button to secure. I also love the length as I can wear a full petticoat underneath.
I should be able to wear this skirt in both the summer & winter months with a pair of tights/stockings underneath.
I decided to pair this skirt with my black and white striped 'October top" from UK vintage inspired brand Lindy Bop which unfortunately is currently out of stock.

Accessories Include:
Black flats from Payless Australia
Pink bag is by Sunjellies ordered through  Vintage Pip
Pink Petticoat is from Lindy Bop 
Retro belt is from an ebay seller 
Pink gumball necklace is from Your one stop pinup shop 
Retro sunglasses were a gift
Sea shell hair-piece is from Gigis Retro Closet 
Brooch is from Viva La Lux 

 These photos were taken by my follow blogger/pinup friend Miss Vera Gin Vintage, whilst I was visiting her hometown of Bundaberg last weekend to visit family and Miss Vera Gin.
I knew I wanted to take these blog photos with sailing boats/yachts in the background to match with my sailing inspired skirt. We took these photos at a local yacht harbour and by the Burnett river that goes directly through Bundaberg.

In other news I've just been busy working, taking blog photos (have quite a number of outfits to blog), and just been busy with home-life.
I'm looking forward to next weekend as myself and Miss Vera Gin will be heading down to a rockabilly festival as we're both in a pinup parade, so excitting - I still don't know what I'll be wearing yet!

Until next time!
