Daisy Chain Dreaming: Harem Royal Screwpulous Jewellery

14th April 2012

Clearly having a jewellery moment right now as there have been more jewellery than shoe posts this week! I am floored by the craftmanship in these amazing pieces by Harem Royal Screwpulous Jewellery, showcasing the juxtaposition between contrasting elements.

The collection is entirely hand-crafted and made from a mixture of metals; mainly copper with a variety of finishes from the finest 24 karat gold plate to various forms of cupric patina and features some delicate yet fierce pieces.

The entire collection is available to buy at the Harem Royal Etsy Page where prices (which I found reasonable before this revelation) are 15% off until the 21st!
What’s your favourite piece from the shop? For me, I think it’s the butterfly necklace at the bottom of the images I’ve shared!
Have a wonderful Saturday

Daisy Chain Dreaming; bank holiday browsing.

09th April 2012

Rainy Bank Holiday’s lend themselves perfectly to a spot of window shopping online; it worries me sometimes how quickly time passes by whilst I flit from one website to the next planning what I’d buy if only I had the funds!

1. Ok, so this one is for Mae and might actually get purchased; amazing cat activity centre from PetPlanet…check out that bargain price!

2. I saw this skirt in InStyle Magazine and decided I NEED it in my life. I’m trying to work out how best to juggle my finances to make it happen…all else fails, I have a Birthday at the end of the month!

3. Maggie Angus creates the most fabulous jewellery, this Hummingbird is new for S/S 2012 and I want it!

4. Rocket Dog floral heels from FYFO. I say no more.

5. My love for Zatchels continues, fluro and floral? Yes Please!

What are you craving right now?

USC Wishlist

24th February 2012
USC is a shop that has flitted on and off my radar for years. To be honest, I’d kind of dismissed it a couple of years ago; I just didn’t think it sold the kind of clothes I liked, so when they got in touch with me to tell me a bit more about the store and I took a look, it was kind of a shock to end up with a MASSIVE wishlist…

This is just what I fancy from the latest arrivals!

USC has an unrivalled range of branded fashion and footwear across 38 stores nationwide including flagship stores in Manchester, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Newcastle and Liverpool and the web hosts over 3,000 produces online- www.usc.co.uk
They have some great brands include G-Star, Diesel, Police, Huntington & Co , Adidas Originals, Ugg Australia, Fred Perry, Soviet, Maggie & Me, Little Mistress and Replay. It is a destination shop for all the best known and loved brands and is one of the few multi-branded retailers in the UK.
I’d encourage you to take a browse online, or give the nearest store to you a chance…although please don’t blame me if you end up blowing your wages in one fell swoop!

orange you glad?

09th January 2012

Orange.

A colour I ignored completely for far too many years of my life, yet now I find myself more and more attracted to it when I see it in a shop. Perhaps I love the clash of it against my red hair, or maybe it’s just rebellion against too many years living in drab colours but right now I just can’t get enough (and of course it’s a real boost against these shorter daylight hours and constant grey skies)

Invest now and you’ll be ahead of the game for S/S12 too, which was ALL about the orange.

Dress by Never Fully Dressed

All jewellery is from Carole Tanenbaum Vintage Collection

The fabulous studded bag is by Hayley Menzies

The cute little keyring/bag charm is by Bobelle

Check out this Buy.com promotional code for another resource for orange in fashion.

…now if you excuse me, I’m off to drown my sorrows in a vat of Tangerines.

put a ring on it

06th December 2011

Dear Santa,

I know, I know…this is letter number 215 I have written you this year, but I promise I have been a really, really good girl and I would love you forever if you could arrange for this divine “Bessie” ring (£115) from awesome jeweller Jane Gowans to be gift wrapped under the tree.

Actually, anything from Jane’s website would be amazing…

Ever Hopeful,

Laura
