Vintage Traveling!

A couple of months back I ordered two dresses from a US ladies clothing company called Eshakti
because I had a sale coupon I could use and there was a "sale" at the time on their website. Plus I love their collection and their many styles of dresses to choose from!
Eshakti mainly sell skirts, tops and dresses. Including many designs, fabrics and patterns to pick and choose from which they update and add new designs quite regularly as well.

This is how Eshakti works as stated by their website: 1. Choose your favorite design that is currently available at the time. 2. Let the company know your measurements.  3.  Customize your design to suit your style e.g. longer/short sleeves, longer/shorter skirt length, low neckline etc.  4. Order and pay for your goodies. 5. Then wait for your order to arrive. This is such a great idea to have a hand in the design of your special skirt of dress. I wish more clothing companies offer this type of thing.
Only downside is that Eshakti only ship to the US and Canada and don't ship to other countries like Australia (where I live). So I had to use a separate postal service that could ship my dresses to me (which end up costing a little more that I had wanted to pay).
Unfortunately I won't be ordering again from Eshakti unless they start shipping worldwide in the near future.

But I do love this dress I choose from Eshakti (currently the same print is on their website but in a different dress style to purchase).
I customize this dress for myself by letting the company know my measurements, adding a longer skirt length and shorter sleeves. Other great features is that this dress is lined, has hidden pockets, comes with a belt and is made out of a light crepe fabric.  I just adore the fabric print with the blue background and the little pink flowers. Such a classic 1940's style!
I hope to blog my other dress in the near future.

Accessories Include:
Peep toe shoes from Target Australia
Cream vintage gloves are thrifted.
Hair flower is from Daisy Jean Floral
Sunglasses are from Colette by Colette Hayman
Perfume brooch is from Soda Sweethearts

These photos were taken by Miss Vera Gin Vintage a little while ago whilst she was visiting me, they were taken at a couple of different locations in Maryborough, Queensland.  For example on a train line beside the river and in a rotunda in Queen's park.

In other news my Mum, my sister and I went to the most beautiful place this morning, so I could mainly take blog photos but to also looked around at the most beautiful cottage and gardens.  I'm really looking forward to posting this on my blog real soon!

Also I'll be posting another blogger interview within the next few days, so keep a look out for that!

Until next time!

Little Green Pixie!

This gorgeous vintage inspired dress is by an Australian brand called Rockabilly Baby Vintage  which I was given the opportunity to do a blog review on!
Rockabilly Baby Vintage sell ladies rockabilly/vintage/pinup inspired dresses, skirts, tops, cardigans, petticoats, accessories and some Men's and children's clothing. They sell well-known vintage inspired brands for example Hell Bunny, Sourpuss, Lindybop, Voodoo Vixen etc and their own brand RBV Designs. 
This dress I'm wearing in these photos is actually a RBV Design and is called the Little Miss Pixie Dress which was named after the business owner's daughter. I choose the green colour-way to blog but there are also pink, blue and yellow to choose from.

These cute dresses come in sizes 10 (Australia) to 24. I ordered size 14 (waist 32 inch and bust 38 inchs) and fits me perfectly. I find this dress is great for the hotter days, due to the shorter length and the singlet style sleeves. Would be fun to wear to picnic's and BBQ's.
 I love the green colour, the faux white buttons down the front, the white detailing and the white poker-dots over this dress.
Other wonderful features is the cute Peter Pan collar, the front pockets and this dress in fully-lined. There is a back zip to get in and out of and is made out of cotton.  I would highly recommend on ordering yourself one of these lovely dresses, as they're really comfortable yet super cute and stylish!!
Note: I wore a petticoat underneath for more skirt fullness and structure.

 Accessories Include:
Shoes are from Payless Australia
Petticoat from an ebay seller.
Vintage hat is thrifted
Vintage handbag is thrifted
Retro sunglasses are thrifted
Radio brooch is from Deer Arrow
Pearl necklace is from Michael Hill
Green floral earrings are from Sunshine Adore

In other news I've still been busy working a lot of shifts at work, next week though I should be back to my normal working roster/hours!

Also on Saturday Miss Vera Gin Vintage and I attended the second annual Timewarp festival at Palmwoods, Queensland. We both checked out the market stalls together, had lunch, took some photos of each other with some of the awesome cars, had some professional photos taken as we both were in the pinup parade. Guess what? Miss Vera Gin won Miss Timewarp 2016, I was extremely happy for her, as was a well deserved winner!
I wore a new dress from one of my favorite vintage inspired company Retrospec'd which I hope to blog about this dress in the near future!

Until next time!
