DIY Millinery

I know this is a bit of a different post but...
As part of my course this year I am studying Millinery, and I love what I came up with for our wirework so I thought I would share it with you guys! I love the fantasy element of this design. Its a two way design, and secured to the head by pins. It is made from a wire frame covered with tulle, fake flowers, beads, lace, craft wire, stick and even coca cola cans!

Here it is, my Wire Framed Floral Tiara

Maybe I'll try and work this  into an outfit! Haha, might be a bit difficult...

Bits & Pieces

Revlon Scented Nailpolish- Pineapple Fizz, Chi Chi - Pump It Up, Chi Chi - Your Disco Needs You 
 I was a bit dissapointed with the Revlon colour, it is more of a gloss and required many coats, but it smells divine! The Chi Chi 'Pump It Up' colour is amaaazing. And some matching lipsticks...

INNOXIA - Pink Carnation, Pink Peony

Love & Toast Handcreme - Sugar Grapefruit



This handcreme is amaaaazing, and the packing is absolutely adorable. It smells delightful

Innoxa Lipsticks - $14.95 each, available here
Prices vary for Revlon Scented Polish and Chi Chi Nail Polish

The Ankle Strap Sandal

These are everywhere! I've never been much of a fan of heels without platforms, I'm sure you've seen this becoming a huge trend and quite honestly they have grown on me. So head on over to good old wholesale-dress.net for a platform version. I bought quite a few things; a cardi, necklace, dress (no, a top) and these sandals. I ordered them in a yellow/orange colour but got them in white. But I am very happy with the colour now, these are so cute!

Available here, $12.32
or Blue here


But the straps are so weird!


Outfit;

  
Luxxx Mustard Lace Dress
Vintage Denim Jacket
Wholesale-dress.net Sandals

Let me know if you prefer the larger photo sizes :)

New Shoes

Sorry for the lack of posting! Uni and work have me very busy!

For all you Aussies,  I'm sure you love DFO just as much as me. I decided to pop into Rubi Shoes just for a quick look and the Faulties table caught my eye... I picked up these boots and amazingly they were $5 !! So I decided to have another look and got some beige wedges for $5 too, and the only ones in my size, a sign?? I think so! A buckle had fallen off the boots and the wedges had a pink highlighter mark... easily fixed. A bit of glue and maybe some DIY glitter in the near future...

So trust me do not avoid the faulties table they can be your new best friend!

Then... I saw Tony Bianco, and convinced myself it was okay to look because I needed some new birthday shoes! 25% off storwide... I was in there for over an hour! Finally I decided on these gorgeous boots and my birthday heels ( You'll have to wait and see! )
