OK so while I am still getting round to sorting my camera out, I thought it would be nice to do a bit of a flash back of an old shoot I did back in January with WE ARE COW.

Now if you haven't heard of them before, they are an awesome vintage clothing company based in Manchester, Sheffield, Birmingham & Nottingham but if you can't make it to any of their stores you can shop online here>link . Seriously, you should give them a check!

(You might recognise my little dino shoot buddy (': from this post>link isn't he just the freaking cutest! ^_^) Also, there is no guarantee that you will find the items I am wearing on the site but there will be many similar :) Happy shopping! ^_^ www.wearecow.com

SOMEDAYS LOVIN…

Dress*: Somedays Lovin’ via OUT & ABOUT
Boyfriend Coat: Primark
Baker Boy Hat: can’t remember >.< ebay?
Crescent Moon Ring: Empty Casket
Crystal Pendants: Empty Casket

I have had this hat for goodness know how long now & I wear it literally all the time so I am pretty hocked that this is it’s debut on my blog. Liam always calls me George (R R Martin) or Patrick (Stump) whenever I wear it (good job he likes both those people ;)) & I do feel like a lost member of the Village People when I wear it sometimes but you know what, I don’t even care, I still love it! ^_^

Anyway, enough about my hat, how amazing is my dress?! It’s by Somedays Lovin’ & I can safely say they are a new favourite brand. Seriously guys, they are way up there with MinkPink & Evil Twin! You all know I love a good smock/swing dress & this one is so on point! The material hangs perfectly & I love the cut out back! Thank you so much Out & About & Somdays Lovin’. Also SL are on ASOS here>>link

Magic Dragon…

Magic Dragon Rainbow Knit Top*: MINKPINK via MEEMEE.COM
Tie Dye Checked Maxi Skirt: H&M (sale)
Double Buckle Belt: H&M
Boots: Ebay
Hat: Topshop
All Jewellery*: DIXI

This amazing MINKPINK top made it’s debut on my instagram (@effiesmakeupbox) the other week after the awesomes at MEEMEE kindly sent it to me. I have worn it so much but only just had chance to photograph it today as the weather has been so bloody crap >.< I have said it before & I will say it again, I love MEEMEE so much! They stock some of the best brands & vintage so you must go & check them out here>link.

All of the jewellery I am wearing is from DIXI. I love the moon & star above knuckle ring & wish necklace, just how I like my jewellery, dainty, but a little bit unusual. As you may already know, I am into crystals & I definitely believe in their energy & healing properties, my favourites, & have been for a long time, to wear ‘every day’ are amethyst & rose quartz & I have been super impressed with my rose quartz from DIXI! A new firm favourite! You can shop DIXI here>link.

Do any of you guys wear &/ use crystals? I would love to know!
