Hello From The Other Side

 Hey guys.. hope you are all well! 

I apologise from my absence from my blog and social media for the past 2 months. 

Life has been awfully hectic with the new job and starting our own home business. 

But..

 Im back!!

Now starting my blog again Im going to be doing this a little different this time..

I want it to continue to be a fashion vintage inspired blog, but me being me, I want more..

So Im going to be spicing things up!

So you'll be seeing more beauty and hair advise, including videos and tips of the trade from not only myself but real pinups I also admire. 
Cooking, health and fitness and also my spotlighting my favourite brands

So first up Im giving you a favourite brand of mine..

Banjo & Cake

 Now if you’ve read my previous reviews on B & C you will hear me rave on and on about the quality of material and their unique designs. 

Well, honestly they have yet to disappoint! 

 The top in the above picture is their 'dame top with roses' and it is one of the most adorable and softest tops I have ever worn.
This baby was so popular it was sold out before I got a chance to spam you with a trillion pictures of it.

 Banjo and Cake are the sister company to 'Too Fast Clothing' and just like their big sister that produce unique designs with a rockabilly feel.

Bold patterns and head turning detailing along with their premium product quality ensures 
B & C are rapidly becoming a sort after label. 

An all time favourite of mine... The B & C cardigans!!!

These cardigans are literally the softest warmest things ever! 

With embroidered features, (usually with an "old tattoo" feel to them) they turn what normally would be just "another cardigan" into a statement piece to your outfit. 

These are perfect for cold winter days when all you want to do is rug up but also not loose that pinup flare.

Bunny Baby Doll Dress

Banjo & Cake

Do you know what I truly love about collaborating with Banjo & Cake? 

It truly allows me to get back into the rockabilly style I started on when I was like 18 and step out of my comfort zone of the "tradition 1950s pinup” look.

With the cutest jumping bunny print and the lace peter pan neckline,

this baby doll dress is just too darn cute.

Accessorise.?

Add knee high socks and adorable heels? Umm... yes please!!

Its so easy to complete a outfit without breaking the bank,

The socks were only $3 at Kmart and the heels were about $30 from Target.

Ohh and introducing my male model of the day...

 Odin

Hes wearing a old Led Zeppelin muscle tee and is pretty much the baddest pooch in town.

The Bunny Babydoll Dress comes in sizes Small to X Large and are definitely true sizes.

Measurements below:

Small: Bust 35.5 Waist 32.5 Length 31.5

Medium: Bust 36.5 Waist 33.5 Length 32

Large: Bust 37.5  Waist 34.5 Length 32.5

X Large: Bust 38.5 Waist 35.5 Length 33

The arm holes are great sizes too..!

 I find with some brands they make the sleeves teeny tiny and if your like me and have more muscular arms they either cut off circulation or are just impossible to wear at all.

 

Thanks B&C for making arms holes for us pop eye armed ladies :) haha

 Another reason I choose this dress was because it suited perfectly for hot summer days.

And yes Ive already been a "repeat offender" wearing this dress almost every second day, but when you look/feel this adorable.. who cares!

 The Bunny dress lining is 100% cotton which means its super breathable, and the top layer is made from sheer polyester which is super soft and breathable. 

Banjo & Cake only ever use the BEST materials for their designs, Im always in awe every time I open a package from them.  

Pictured below Ive styled the dress to be a bit more fitted, as not everyone is a fan of the baby doll look. 

Personally I think they are the best invention ever.. seriously I can eat as much as I like an no one can see the belly bloat! :)

Ive used some black ribbon I picked up from Spotlight and added a vintage brooch for a bit of bling and to add a focal point in the outfit.
