How To Wear Art Deco Style



Designers have answered the public's prayers by working striking bead work and 
art deco influence into their ranges.  There has been an incredible rise in popularity in
 the last couple of years for vintage and Gatsby inspired occasionwear and we can see why! There is no era more glamorous or elegant than the roaring twenties. Art deco represents beauty, charm and being shocking and extraordinary all in one go.  Whereas modern trends change from season to season the 1920s will stay timelessly stylish.  To be successful
 in nailing this look a show-stopping dress is in order. We recommend this exquisite Pink Embellished Flapper Dress for a flawless overall finish. It has a  perfect rose pink palette that'll suit almost any complexion as well as beautiful scalloped detailing and a drop-waist 
fit that'll flatter your figure. We're big on continuing the colour coordination with our accessories so we'd pair this flapper dress with our Rose Gold Hair Comb as a piece of breathtaking bling for our hair.  We'd keep things pale and interesting and complete our look with this precious Ivory Pearl Clutch.  However you choose to style it, the 1920s is a look that will live on !

Festival Survival Guide


Feature: The Gypsy Shrine

If you're lucky enough to be trekking to a festival this Summer check out our essential survival tips to prevent you from making those common mistakes that make it more of an terrifying ordeal than an immense experience. Hey...we've been there, trust us on this one!

Rule 1: Be ruthless and pack light

In the comfort of your own bedroom, packing all those heels and accessories seems like a top priority but be warned.  When your trudging a tent and camping gear across multiples of muddy fields in order to get to your campsite you'll thank us for telling you to pack light. Do what we do and pack playsuits. They take next to no space in your rucksack and keep you looking suitability stylish for a festival. Problem solved.





Rule 2: Prepare for the worst.

Every year we all go in with the attitude that we are going to see weather that rivals the tropic but the sad reality is we'll probably end dancing in something that reassembles this:


Rule 3: Hand  sanitizer is your new best friend.

Seriously... do not go to a festival without some trusty anti-bacterial hand gel. You'll be using it by the bucket load as soon as you see the state of the toilet facilities. It's simply a MUST! 


Rule 4: Stick together

It's pretty much a guarantee that at some point you'll end up completely losing your mates whilst your waiting in line for the bar. Keep calm and carry on you'll find them eventually but try and prevent this in the first place and choose a buddy you're going to stick to like glue. 


Rule 5: Think of your health.

Bottles of water, factor 50+ sun cream and paracetamol will be crucial to your survival at a festival. Literally. You won't regret packing too much water or smothering yourself with sunscreen when you see the daunting queue for the water taps where you really feel the full impact of the Sun.  What you need to remember is that you'll be partying in a field all day long so make with the prep!
