A taste of something oriental

LOVE this whole look! Vero Modero have come up trumps with yet another fantastic new release. This gown is quite simply amazing, I totally adore the design and feel plus the skirt has great fluid movement to it, so you feel as if you glide as you walk along. The exotic floral print is beautiful but what I particularly like is the collar and how it resembles an anthurium - stunning!

What sets the dress off perfectly is this amazing skin which is from the brand new skin & shape store Galaxy rise. This store has quite a selection a skins ranging in tones for human skins & just about every colour you can imagine in alien skins it's definitely worth a look in but don't just take my word for it check the blog for details or pop in store -  link below.

Beggars banquet

Today I found another fantastic store! I love the fact there are so many undiscovered stores out there waiting for me to find them. Well Beggars banquet is my next favourite (love the name too) everything in store is 50L and there are some really fabulous items for men & women. This is where I picked up this gorgeous red coat which also has a fur lined hood but I decided not to wear that. I have no doubt that the skull scarf I picked up there will be my 'wear with everything' item for the coming months too.

Speaking of skulls if there's another must have item it's Lassitude & Ennuis' skully pumps . I love love LOVE the detail on these shoes but I also really like the colour options too along with Les petits details, lassitude & ennui have the best colour options to please my palette! Oh and check out this cute unisex hair!! shame about the name - Ken?! hey who am I to speak with a name like Fauna hehe *goes off to look if there are any hairs anywhere called Fauna*

Strawberry picking

I've been absolutely loving watching Wimbledon and I have been rooting for Andy Murray of course but who can't love Roger Federa?! ...anyway getting sidetracked slightly - what association do you have with Wimbledon - other than the tennis that is? yes strawberries! and what cutie little strawberries items do I have for you!

In my last post I gushed about that wonderful store Natural, and since I picked up a few items here, I thought i'd share some with you. The shoes, bag, socks, hairbow & necklace are all part of the strawberry theme package for a tiny 30L would you believe! there's also a strawberry covered dress with the package too, however I felt it was a little too much strawberry overkill for one outfit.

so instead  I opted for this rather delightful summery ensemble from 22769. It comprises of the layered shirt pretty frilly trimmed top & belt which is wonderfully feminine and summery & perfect for strawberry picking,  if you didn't get tickets for Wimbledon that is.
