Lovely Label: Tilly Me

4th January 2015 8 Comments

I’ve never been to Australia, but I love the fashion from this country! When I found Melbourne based label Tilly Me, I was convinced again that the Aussies just know how to make fashion colourful, bright and exciting!

Tilly Me is the label by Tilly Michelle, a Melbourne based style icon fond of Harajuku fashion and the 80s and 90s. She creates bold street wear for women and men, featuring kawaii illustrations and cool geometric prints. The distinctive prints are illustrated by Tilly herself and all items are made in Melbourne. As I already have a jumper from Tilly Me, I can truly say that the quality of the hand screen printed fabric is amazing and worth every penny.

Because it’s summer in beautiful Australia now, they just released a few breathtaking pieces for the warmer days. No matter how much snow there is over here, I can’t stop thinking about the quirky beauty queen, dinosaur and cat prints. I bet they would look rad with thick tights and winter boots as well. Winter you can’t stop us girls go crazy for Tilly Me!

Visit Tilly Me here and don’t forget to follow them on Facebook.

Kawaii Box Review and Giveaway: Omg It’s so Kawaii, I’m Gonna Die

22nd October 2014 8 Comments

These are the eleven happy things I found in my October Kawaii Box.

Loving all my new pink cuties. They arrived to make my life more kawaii.

This adorable cat pencil sharpener is my favourite.

A lovely face cloth, a bear charm and a funny bunny card.

Cute bunny stickers, I’ll use them for my mail.

This girly bag will be my new makeup bag, yay! Hello bunnies, rainbows and love letters!

What a fluffy cat plush! I’ll decorate one of my bags with it.

Grapefruit sweets with the most adorable packaging ever.

And the best: It’s more than just charming when a parcel comes with a handwritten card (and candy hair ties). Thumbs up!

Do you love surprises and getting parcels? Then this is one for you! If you subscribe to Kawaii Box, you’ll get a box of the cutest items from Japan and Korea every month for just $ 18.90; shipping included. Every Kawaii Box contains 10 to 12 handpicked kawaii items and is delivered to you worldwide.

When I was asked to review the October Box, I eagerly checked my mailbox every day, that big was my curiosity to see what cute things I would get. My thrill of anticipation didn’t end in disappointment at all when the box arrived perfectly on time. I love about my box that there are two cat items in it – a little plush and a pencil sharpener – and that everything is pink and cheerful.

This is what I found in my box:
– Cat Pencil Sharpener
– Furry Nemuneko Cat Plush

Conclusion:
I am truly impressed by the selection of items of my box, and I am very tempted to subscribe to this box. It’s truly refreshing and brings a lot of happiness into a girls life. I’m already longing so much for more of it…

Yummy, Yummy: Doughnuts with Sprinkles

12th October 2014 8 Comments

I Love Crafty, donut jewellery, kawaii look

I swear, it wasn’t me who ate all the doughnuts.

How could a pink girl ever lie to you?

There is just no reason to eat them, when you can wear them.

My perfect doughnut needs sprinkles. Always.

Another thing sweets and jewellery have in common: They both come in the cutest boxes.

New boots to start the autumn, I am ready for rain puddles and piles of leaves on my path.

What does Homer Simpson love more than anything else on earth? The one and only answer is not his family, his job, his neighbours or his sofa, but Doughnuts! Forget about cronuts they are a strange modern invention, only real doughnuts will do!

The sweet round rings mean the universe to Homer and so do they to my look of the day. My doughnuts are fresh from the I Love Crafty bakery. If you follow me on Instagram, you might have spotted them there; they caused quite a stir. No wonder, because they are even better than real sugar bombs: No greasy hands, but the full dose of sprinkles and sweetness. Rings, Necklaces, collar tips and bangles and all in different designs (or shall I say flavours?) make a decision very tough if you visit the I Love Crafty store. So the best might be to do it like Homer: Take them all!

My neon love, which started in the last outfit post, continues. This time with a top from Desire Clothing and nearly neon coloured hair. For once, I wear black boots, I bet something you didn’t see on me for a long time. I just loved the quality, and simple style of those shoes and I can wear them with nearly everything. Even a colour explosion girl like me is now and then comfortable with something that suits every look. While I don’t have to loose sleep over what shoes to wear, there is time to focus on other things: Let’s say doughnuts!

How do you like this look lovelies?

My Outfit:

Top: Desire Clothing, Skirt: American Apparel, Shoes: Timberland, Necklace, Ring and Collar Tips: I Love Crafty, Sunglasses: Quay Eyeware, Tights: H&M, Bag: River Island

Thanks to Desire Clothing for the top and to I Love Crafty for the jewellery.

Dreams Are No Soap Bubbles

Let the soap bubbles fly through the air.

Hair and collar match: Perfect plan, isn’t it?

Bubblegum haired girls are happy to watch the rainbow coloured bubbles.

No idea what is written there, I hope it’s something as sweet as the pattern looks.

Feeling very kawaii today, almost like a Harajuku girl.

I could laugh the whole day, wearing one of my fashion dreams around my neck.

Lesson learned: Not all dreams are just cloud castles.

Is it because of the heart shaped glasses or why do I feel so pink today?

Long legs for tiny girls: Platforms, please!

Cute, cuter, the cutest, my outfit! Oh yes, I try to fit as much Kawaii in my outfit as possible. Bubblegum pink is my colour therapy, candy floss my philosophy. A few years ago I tended to dress black or gray, whenever I had a difficult time. Nowadays I think that’s completely the wrong thing: Colours (and especially pastel colours) are an astonishing antidote against dark moods. Don’t underestimate the power of cuteness!

I especially love this outfit, because it contains many things that make me smile. Making soap bubbles during the shooting was just too much fun. I nearly emptied the whole bottle, because I couldn’t stop anymore. I didn’t do this for ages and was fascinated by how wonderful the bubbles look in the light. Isn’t it amazing how beautiful something as simple as soap bubbles can be?

Today’s look includes the fulfillment of a dream: A while ago, I spotted this pink hair collar on a page. I didn’t know who designed it or where to get it, but it was love at first sight and never left my mind. A few months later I was introduced to a lovely French girl called Clara Chérie and was so surprised to see it on her page again, among a lot of wonderful creations. I begged her that I needed to wear this, and here it is on my neck. Dreams don’t burst like soap bubbles all the time, but sometimes they come true in Barbie land!

What are your fashion dreams come true my lovelies?

Dress: Illustrated People, Pink Hair Collar: Clara Chérie (made to order),
Shoes: Ego & Greed, Sunglasses: River Island, Tights: Topshop, Socks: Topshop
