Hey honey-buns, now I know what your thinking... spring?! In the middle of autumn!?
Well, yes. I am working on a little project and this will provide me with a great deal of help and I thought you might like to join in? I'll be posting these daily if I get any feedback from you guys?!(: It's just something quick and fun to do when your bored...
Sooo think spring and GO!
Do you LOVE or HATE...
Bows? Leggings? Peach blush?
The question is...
What fashion accessory will you be showing off this spring?!
So, if you watch my channel you will know I did a swap with Elouise1984!
Well it arrived today and I am so overjoyed and greatful with what I found in my little parcel- more than I can ever wish for!
(Thank you sooo much Elle and her beautiful little girl!)
I pulled the parcel out of it's big envelope and this is the first thing I saw!
Saffron, Elle's little girl decorated the lid for me and I love it! It's so cute!
(Thank you beautiful)!
^
Okay so I opened up the box and straight away, I noticed the lid which had some sweeties taped inside and as little heart saying 'much love' drawn in the middle! ADORABLE!
Elle knows how much I love vintage, especially Cath Kidston's famous styles, so she wrapped all the little gifts in this beautiful red polka dot paper!!! It looks so beautiful!!
Hope you're all doing OK!(: I have a very special post for you today! It is my Autumn evenings Collection! Emma, our beautiful model and I had heeps of fun creating this for you and we cannot wait to do the next one! I hope you like it!
Look One:
Fair Lady of Autumn
Dress: Jane Norman
I absolutely love this dress, if I do say so myself! Tehee! It's perfect for any formal evening event or special occassion such as a wedding! The last time I wore it I was on holiday and I do admit I got a fair few compliments, not for me- but for the dress!!!
Shoes: Aldo
I just think the golden floral embroidery is simply beautiful against the chocolate brown of the garment- it's truly outstanding and these shoes are too die for! I do admit, these actually belong to my mum- because we're the same size, she let me borrow them just once for her birthday party, but apart from that they are off-limits!!! As you can see, they are from Aldo, but there are cheaper alternatives out there!
This make-up look was a big risk! I was inspired by Fashion Fables on youtube, but I had only seen the video before I chose to do this at the shoot, so this was my first time ever applying it, let alone the fact that I have literally no experience putting make-up on anyone else but myself! I've done my friends and my mum but y'know, this was diffent, as I really wanted it to look good and I'm sure Emma was sat there like 'What are you doing to my face?!' when I was applying this but it came out good I think! ... I suppose you'll let me know!♥
Look Two:
Beware of the Beautiful Heartbreaker
Trousers: Topshop £38
So it was 'Date Night' for this little lady!♥
I absolutely adore this corset, it's a size six so, there's no way I'm getting into it any time soon, but I'm sure Emma won't mind me telling you she is a size 8 and I aim to be that skinny someday, so, this will remain collecting dust until I am! I also love the claret red colour this season it just reminds of those fallen leaves which takes me on a journey in my mind of reds, oranges and burnt yellow leaves on the roads and the gardens at this particular time of year.. I don't know why but the colours make me feel warm and safe... wow, that sounds strange- 'Colours make you feel warm Lulu?!'
Corset: Jane Norman
Wedges: BANK £30
I bought these wedges around May time to go on holiday with and I can tell you it was like love at first site- I just knew I had to get them! Though, I still haven't had chance to wear them on a proper night out yet! :/
LookThree: Too Devine to Dine
Dress: STAR by Julien Macdonald; Debenhams
This look is my absolute favourite!!! I have to say I just love the whole thing, especially Emma's astounding eyes! For this shot I took quite a risk by having Emma laid on my dining room table and although I knew she was a little uncomfortable at first, she really pulled it out of the bag!
This was the most fun scene to set up as I set the table like we were in a restaurant and even threw some salad in the mix!
The dress looks phenomenal, the colour is just beautiful and I admit we got such a bargain as we found this in the sale for £40 down from about £60, although, don't quote me on that as I got this for a wedding quite a long time ago, but I still love it! What do you think?!
Beauty Close-up
I kept the makeup to a minimum because I wanted the dress to really speak for itself!
Nails: Maybelline NY Watershine Polish in Plum Shoes: STAR by Julien Macdonald
I love this nail colour, it is one of my absolute faves! I have put on around three coats here, to make it really dark, but if you want a more red finishing then one coat is definitely enough and it doesn't chip easily either!!!
These shoes were a real bargain in debenhams for about £15 and I love them to pieces especially because of the little silver studded bow on the toe which I think is soo cute!!!
Ahh, that's it! I thoroughly enjoyed creating this post for you and bringing my vision of the collection to life! Pleeeease let me know what you think!!
