Now Voyager; hair lust

I’m not a huge hair accessories fan, don’t get me wrong, they look amazing on other people…just not on my unruly mop,
however when a press release for Now Voyager dropped in my inbox I realised I should possibly have a re-think and these are just beyond awesome.

Now, Voyager are the Sister design duo who believes that every lady deserves to be a Pin up.
With different influences, Felicity and Jess both work together for the same goal of creating beautiful
and unique pieces that enhance the wearers style and confidence.

Pulling inspirations from a variety of eras and different objects, Now, Voyager aims to produce Hair accessories with a difference. As well as each item being home-made, the accessories are designed to sit comfortable and perfectly with any style or texture of hair, showing that Now, Voyager can be for every girl.

Now, Voyager is stocked in a variety of stores in London, Glasgow, Essex and Japan and can be bought from US websites as well as their own…www.now-voyager.co.uk

A massive breakaway from my usual style; but sometimes change is good, right?

Yeah, I’d say it’s time for a change…now…get me that bird!

Indecision

Yesterday I started out wanting to wear this Topshop skirt, several combinations later I ended up with this, and remembered how impossible I find this skirt to style. On other people, it looks great and so I’ve reluctantly kept hold of it, hoping…but really, the cut/fit doesn’t work well on me, so if you were looking for this skirt, it’s now on ebay
I have such a love/hate relationship with skirts. Being tall with long legs and a long torso I find it near impossible to find one that sits where it should

And so yesterday I ended up wearing this New Look dress with M&S tights (plus converse). I love these tights but they sadly laddered later in the day. I wonder if M&S still do them? Has anyone seen any two tone polka dot tights about?

In other exciting news, I managed to track down the MUA Heaven and Earth palette! My local superdrug finally got a stock; they only started displaying the pro range just over a week ago but the palettes had been distinctly missing. I want the pastel one too…so pretty and such a bargain price!

My Becca has started a blog too! It took a lot of persuading/bullying but she’s done it! Go over and say hello! she’s a gorgeous girly with lots of insight.

Happy mid-week dolls, half way to the (long) weekend!

I Kissed a Smurf Mug from Campus Gifts, because the Smurfs movie has re-kindled a childhood obsession.

What are you wishing for?

weekends and wishes

True to form, I’m feeling much better after a fabulous weekend. Friday night, letting my hair down put me back in a good mood and planted a smile firmly on my face.

 How amazing is Becca’s hair? A few weeks ago it was long and blonde. Now it’s PURPLE and amazingly short. I’m obsessed! The necklace I’m wearing was a gift from the awesome people over at Jon Richard (more to come on that as they have an exciting new website and gorgeous A/W collection on the way!)

Something else that seriously brightened up the week was the Fairy Hobmother who lives at Appliances Online
She spends her days visiting blogs and granting wishes. I’ve been desperate for a bread maker for ages now, and danced around the office on Thursday when I received an e-mail saying my wish had been granted.

Make sure you leave your hearts desire in the comments here, you never know…you might be the next lucky person to have a fairy wish granted!
I can’t wait to show off my bread making experiments. If you have a killer recipe, do share!
