Honor Thy Hell Bunny

When I first saw the Honor Dress, I honestly didn't think it would suit me at all.

(as I don't usually suit big collared necklines) 

But i thought 'what the heck, ill give it a go'...

Boy was I surprised! 

Instantly falling in love with this design, I just felt it oozed elegance and hallelujah... the neckline actually looked good!!

 The Honor dress comes with the black belt which fantastically breaks up the pattern drawing the eye to the waist and when pairing this dress with non other than the Hell Bunny petticoat, it creates   shape and the perfect 1950's silhouette.

I keep this look really simple, I stumbled across the long sleeve gloves at a vintage store an decided to let my red lips be the splash of colour. 

Seriously.. how perfect is this dress?!

I love shooting with Em, she is a professional but we have so much fun together and a lot of laughs. 
She was kind enough to round up a heap of vintage cars for the day and was my first time shooting with cars.. I was a bit nervous to touch them haha

As you can tell (by my hair colour) this shoot was a couple of months ago, due to having to take time away for family reason I never got to post them, so I wanted to share them with you now :) 


I hope you have enjoyed this post!
Any questions or just want to say hi please comment or email me at betteboom@gmail.com

Winter is definitely coming...

The Vivien Coat in Black by Hell Bunny

People who know me, know that I hate being cold. 

Living in South East coast of Australia it gets pretty damn cold, not freezing temperatures (although you can drive an hour to see snow) but we get the cold sea winds which sometimes feel like they are going to blow me away! 

So I have been searching for a coat that is thick enough to handle the weather but stylish enough that I don't look like the Michelin Man!

Say hello to the Vivien coat by Hell Bunny...

This coat literally makes me gasp every time I look at it, and when I wear it I feel like Elizabeth Taylor! Hell Bunny has truly outdone themselves with this one.

Now I actually received the Vivien Coat in Spring last year, and with our Spring being as hot as our Summer it has been sitting in my wardrobe, waiting patiently.... 

And with our last weeks of Autumn it was finally time to bring her our for her grand reveal!

 First up it's incredibly warm, the thickness of the coat, the longer length, faux fur collar and cuffs..  

I was a toasty marshmallow inside.

My favourite thing about the Vivien is the cut and silhouette, this dress was made to put over swing skirts and petticoats as the coat itself has a full skirt. 

Having a full skirt itself it also falls perfectly over wiggle dresses and skirts, as the coat brings in the waistline and creates perfect shape and lines at the bottom.

I truly can not find one flaw in this coat, its perfect and I'm in love.

Now I will be honest and say it was a little pricey, around the $200 (AUD) mark, but in saying that most quality coats are in that price range, and if I have to pay a little extra for quality and durability I wouldn't even hesitate. 

Much Love
