My Feather Tattoo

Vintage Leather Shorts ebay, Kimono Topshop, Top H&M, Boots Miss Selfridge

I am so pleased I finally went ahead and got my tattoo done. Some of you guys were asking about pain and stuff. I can honestly say it did not hurt I do have a high pain threshold and a very fine needle was used to get the feather effect so these factors obviously made it more comfortable. The healing process was not that bad either it was more the waiting for it to heal to see the final result that I found annoying I used a thin layer of Bepanthen three times a day. The only thing is it is addictive I am already thinking what I want done next.

I would love to hear about your tattoos xoxo

Temporary Feather Tattoo

I have been harping on about getting a feather tattoo for ages I still have not got round to it yet so when I got an email from Fake Tattoos asking me if I wanted to try some samples of there temporary tattoos I thought hell yeah and was even more excited when I saw they had a beautiful feather and very similar to what I would love to get done.

They are really easy to apply and last a couple of days check them out here their are some amazing designs and you can even create your own.

Feather Hair Extensions

It is no secret that I love feathers I have heard about Feather Hair Extensions for a while now all those gorgeous girls in Cali have been rocking them including Ashley from Purse in Boots and Krystal from What is Reality Anyway who wrote a post about them here.

I have had no luck finding them in the UK until now A Head of Hair stocks them you have to buy the tool kit and do them yourselves but it seems pretty straight forward. I decided to buy a clip in one from here and if I like the effect I am going to invest in the real ones.

Little Wing also stock feather hair extensions check them out here

Positively Spring Like

Tunic Day Birger, Levis 501 Cut Offs ebay, Scarf Theapy, Necklace & Headband H&M, Boots Office (old)

Wow we have been spoilt by the weather it was nice to have a little taste of spring. I have been wearing the scarf I DIYed loads it seems to go with everything but I have not had a chance to put it in an outfit post yet so here it is.

Fringe on Fringe

Kimono Topshop, Dress Topshop, Wedges Blue Inc

Last week I got a message from the gorgeous Melissa of Princess and the Pea saying that there was the most amazing fringed kimono that had just arrived on the Topshop website I could'nt believe my eyes when I saw it straight into my basket it went and I was checking out. A few hours later it had literally sold out. Anyway when it arrived it was even more beautiful than the picture on the website it is by far my most favourite item of clothing that I own ever.

I decided to team it with more fringing oh and feathers :) what the heck but this is going to be awesome in the summer thrown over everything.

Yet Another DIY

I am attaching feathers to everything I found this gorgeous printed scarf by Therapy check it out here I attached feathers to two corners to give it a bit more interest and to channel Roberto Cavalli's AW11 collection I am pleased to see that the Boho look with lots of fringing and feathers is still going to be strong in AW11

I have been buying a few things on ebay mainly Levis to turn into shorts and some other bits and bobs will share them with you soon xoxo

And all that jazz

Jacket H&M (old), Trousers H&M, Top Whistles, Boots Dune, Headband H&M, Necklace H&M

Two pieces that I brought on my recent shopping trip. I have fallen in love with H&M's printed trousers they fit just right and at £9.99 what a bargain and I feel like I am wearing my PJ's. The head band was also from H&M and spotted while waiting to pay. I think it will also look great worn around the waist or as a necklace.

Grizzly Adams

Vest Vintage, Jacket Miss Selfridge, Leggings Topshop, Dress (old), Boots Dune

OK so now I have resorted to raiding my legging collection I cant wait to free my legs from the restraints of tights and leggings and bare them. The weather is getting colder so I am turning to layering I forgot I had this vintage cape which I turned into a vest and layered it over my biker jacket adding much needed warmth. I found the feather charm necklace in H&M for a bargain £5.99 it really reminds me of the Acne resort one which is inspiring my daily outfits.

Catch me a dream

Trousers H&M, Jacket Miss Selfridges,, Boots Dune Bag, Label Lab, Rings Topshop, H&M & Margie Hearts Vintage

Wow the sun sure did have his hat on I took these pictures yesterday and what a stunning day the wind had died down and the sky was perfect azure blue could almost of been spring if it was not for that little chill in the air. You guys seemed really interested in the feather post so I have found some links where you can buy dream catchers. This ebay seller has some beautiful ones check them out here and Wakan Tanka has some amazing Native American Products including dream catchers check it here

The one I have on my bag is customized by moi I removed the middle attachment which is now on a neckalce and added these longer feathers which I brought from ebay. Just incase you was wondering :)))

Feathers

I have become a little addicted to feathers in the form of hair embellishments, necklaces and dream catchers and there is so much feather inspiration out there and what a fun accessory for summer. I will be ditching the tail and adorning my bag with a dream catcher for summer.

Romantic Print & Feathers

I love this romantic floral print and it is also a great transitional print too. I have made a feather braid from an old hair extension and a braid that I brought from here I kind of felt my accessories were more suitable for summer but hey I love this braid I am also thinking of having a feather tattoo done on the inside of my arm it symbolises freedom and free spirit.

Homemade

I have been doing a little bit of DIY. As I have mentioned before I want fringing and feathers to feature in my wardrobe for next season so I made this fringe belt to go over denim cut offs from a pair of broken pleather trousers and I missed out on the F21 dream catcher necklace so I brought one from ebay and put it on a chain. Hopefully these cost effect diy's will update my wardrobe and give my outfits a twist.

My Turn

It has been super busy at work people have been shopping like crazy in the Christmas sales but yesterday the town was a little quieter and I actually managed to get a full lunch break so it was my time to have a shop I brought this stunning kimono from Topshop check it out here, the gorge tassel bag from Label Lab ohh and the necklace which was not in the sale from Dorothy Perkins they have awesome pieces of jewellery defo worth checking it out here.
I decided to buy bits that I can use in the summer too I am also into feathers at the moment I think they will give a cute boho twist to summer outfits. I am buying every kimono I can find I think they will look fab teamed with cut offs in the summer and I am relying on Toppers for some great ones.

I want to leave you with some inspirational pictures from the Topshop Christmas 2010 Campaign I find these images a great inspiration for my S/S wardrobe even though they are for winter.
