Little Pink Lady

The Banjo and Cake Embroidered Horseshoe Cardigan 
and 
Pinup Girl Clothing Doris Skirt

This is such a simple outfit combination, but thats what I love about it.

 As soon as I laid eyes on this cardigan on the Banjo and Cake website I knew it would work perfectly with this skirt. 
The bold pink with black featured panels, paired with a black bottom (also looks amazing with my black capris) makes the cardigan the focal point of the outfit.
 I believe sometimes outfits can be overdone, and definitely in this case less is more.

Always a fan of the old faithful cardigan, I was extremely pleased to see it was beautifully made and with quality materials.
Made from a viscose/cotton blend the cardigan is extremely soft but incredibly warm, which is amazing as I hate nothing more than feeling like I need to wear 10 layers in winter.

Lets just talk a moment about how adorable the embroidered appliqués are..
Horseshoes, bows and birds oh my!
Im a complete sucker for a cute cardi, and this one just ticks all the cute boxes.
Cute colour.. check, adorable features... check, fitted and not baggy.. check!!
No wonder why I get so many people asking me where I got it!
I had been eyeing off a Doris Skirt for ages, but being a bit unsure as I normally go for the full Jenny Skirts rather than the A-line.
Seeing this skirt at my favourite local pinup boutique Misconduct I had to try it on.. 
well obviously I fell in love and since buying this skirt a few weeks ago, it has now become my go-to skirt. 
Just like every other Pinup Girl Clothing, its made with perfection, the material is quite thick, which is great for a winter skirt (paired with a petticoat for shape and extra warmth) and has a slight stretch to it, making it ultra comfortable.

The Doris Skirt is available in many colours/patterns at 


Keep Warm,

Much Love

Seaside Siren

The Sea Garden Skirt From Banjo & Cake

When this skirt arrived in the post I squealed in delight because it was even more perfect in person than in the pictures.
I love anything with a cute and quirky pattern, and this one just ticked all the right boxes..
Seriously.. octopuses, squid, fish and seahorses, how could I say no?!

Discovering Banjo & Cake on Instagram, I fell in love with there rockabilly inspired range. 
Usually I go for more of the traditional pinup look, however sometimes I like to branch out into edgier styles and I feel like the Sea Garden Skirt works so perfectly. 
Made from silky poly/cotton material with a lining of a soft knit and tulle, which gives this skirt shape with or without a petticoat. 
Designed with a simple invisible zip at the back, and the best surprise ever... pockets!!
From the picture below you can see how chuffed I was to discover those bad boys, I just think every dress and skirt should have pockets!
How adorable is this print...I'm in heaven!!
Ive teamed this gorgeous skirt with a top I bought from Forever New, a simple blue chiffon scarf, belt from Pinup Girl Clothing and Black flats from Target.

The simplicity of the red lipstick and nails create a beautiful contrast amongst all the blue and black, and its such fun look which can be easily dressed up by adding heels.  
These photos were taken by my loving fiancé at the gorgeous local beach in Dudley, NSW. 
Being such perfect weather and such an amazing location we were able to run around and get some amazing shots. 
If you love this skirt, it also comes in a dress, leggings, socks, cardigan and swimwear (which is a personal fav)..
