Vacation Time!

Hi everyone! 

 

How are you all going?  I've had a busy week at work catching up, before I have next week off.  My husband and I are going away on Monday for our first year wedding anniversary! We are both looking forward to that, it will be lovely to get away for a bit.  This weekend I don't have much plans, probably just have a quiet one and get organized to go away.

For this blog post I'm reviewing this gorgeous dress by U.S vintage inspired clothing brand Vixen by Micheline Pitt it's called vacation dress in navy blue.  There are sizes XS to 4XL to choose and purchase from on the website.  I actually purchased this dress from a facebook buy/swap/sell group for a good price and in great condition.  I'm wearing a size 2XL and it fits quite well and is very comfortable to wear throughout the day. I will say it's a little big around the bust-line though. This dress is actually designed to go travelling with and the material is wrinkle-resistant. 

Other great features to this dress is the large hidden pockets, that it comes with a matching fabric belt and has a invisible back zip to get in and out of.  I also love the bishop sleeves, the peasant style neckline and that you have the option of wearing this dress on or off your shoulders.  The material is made from a synthetic gaberdine spandex twill.  This dress you could easily dress-up or down, depending on the occasion! I own a few garments from Vixen by Micheline Pitt and all are made to a high quality standard and are so unique and stylish to wear.

Accessories Include:

Boater Hat from Morgan & Taylor

Bangles and Earrings by Splendette

Brooch by Erstwilder

Handbag from Pinup Girl Clothing

Flats by Bettie Page Footwear ordered via Nicole Jade Boutique

These photos we're shoot by my loving husband down near the Mary River in Maryborough, Queensland.  At times it can be quite hard to find locations to suit my outfit or different locations to shoot my blog photos at!  There are some places/locations that do like to charge for photoshoots.  I do try and avoid this as my fashion blogging is a hobby and I don't make any money from it!  

Anyway I always give a shout out to where my blog photos are taken at!  

In the few years I've been blogging I believe there was a couple of historical museum's I ended up paying a small fee to get into and take my blog photos there.  

Also a location/business that is usually used for weddings, I payed a small amount to take my own photos there.  Most of the time my blog photos are taken outside in public free areas, such as parks and gardens.

Until next time!

Hi everyone!

How are you going?  I've got this week at work, then I'm taking some annual leave and having a week off. My husband and I are going away for a couple of nights for our one year wedding anniversary!  We had planned to go down to Mount Tambourine in Queensland ( a four hour drive away) but have now decided to go away a bit closer to Maleny in Queensland (a two hour drive away).  The reason why we changed our plans is mainly because of covid-19, as there has been a outbreak of Coronavirus recently especially in Victoria, Australia.  The state that I live in which is Queensland, there have only been a few cases. Fingers crossed it's stays this way but you can never be to sure.  My husband and I both decided we want to be on the safe side, and not travel as far away from home, for our anniversary getaway!

For this blog post I'm reviewing this beautiful dress by Sweden vintage inspired clothing company Miss Candyfloss  This dress is called Finella-Lee floral swing dress, this dress is now sold out on the Miss Candyfloss website. There are other colour ways still available to purchase for example there is a stone/red and a petrol/teal colours.  I actually waited up to ten weeks for this dress to arrive in the post (because of covid-19 and not many international flights at the moment).  I was very happy when this dress finally arrived and it fitted perfectly on me! 

I'm wearing a size XL and I love the fit and style of this dress...I'm looking forward to wearing it over spring and summer! Actually you could wear this dress all year around, in the cooler months just add a cardigan or a jacket.

This dress is made from 97% cotton and 3% Elastin.  It has a zipper at the back and pockets...yay!!

Other features include the swing skirt has box pleats (wear with or without a petticoat) and it comes with it's own fabric detachable green belt. Note: I'm not wearing a petticoat for these photos. 

I adore the diamond shaped neckline, the short sleeves and the pleated bust.  I also love the floral print on the navy blue background.  Miss Candyfloss is one of my favourite brands to wear, there garments are so comfortable, yet stylish and unique to wear!

These photos we're shoot by my amazing husband at Yengarie Gallery & Gardens  I'm ever looking for different locations for my outfit and blog photos and I'm so grateful, that I've been allowed to take my outfit and blog photos at Yengarie Gallery & Gardens.  There is actually a Maryborough Open Gardens day coming up on the 29th of August, the general public are able to view some amazing private gardens and it's for free. The lovely couple that own and take care of Yengarie Gallery & Gardens will be allowing the general public to view their gardens on the 29th August 2020. 

Until next time!
