Virgin Suicides ♡

So I had the exciting chance to be part of the beautiful Haunt magazine's second issue - based on the 90's. They are an online based magazine full of so much dreamy beautiful creative work.

After a thought I decided I would take the chance to create some poster's based on my favourite films from growing up in that age, and try and make them dreamy and pastelly. My absolute favourite film is Virgin Suicides so naturally I really loved drawing the Lisbon sisters <3



To see my other posters, check out Haunt Mag Issue 2, online now, thinking of making them all into mini posters available to buy once I re open my Etsy, What do you lovelies think?

Hope everyones having a wonderful weekend! Going to try and start blogging more regularly again now the holidays are nearly over :) So much to write about!

Lots of love x x x

Candy Pop ♡

So realise I've been massively neglecting my poor little blog recently! But I've been all over the place once again, working with the absolutely lovely Jenny King Embroidery down in Brighton, & seeing friends and fam, and working on some new drawings.


A few weeks back I made a little trip to London for the launch of the wonderful Ballad Of's Candy Pop Party (I know this is super delayed to write about it - but better late than never!) Which was too much fun! - so much pastels and excitement!!


I submitted a few illustrations, sadly didn't make it in, but thinking of putting them in my shop as limited prints, what do you lovelies think..



The Candy Party was a wonderful eve full of rainbow coloured shots that tasted like skittles, jelly beans, a little beauty bar where me and my friend got big eyelashes put on, before dancing the night away to some ultimate 90's tuneage from Wu Tang to Spice Girls <3

 It was like a lovely trip into the best bits of 90's and super fun! I got some wonderful goody bag treats too, some yummy vegan rose body cream & wash being my fav's - and of course the sugary sweeties and cute bits! The girls themselves were absolutely lovely too! So much fun to meet them in person after all the crazy candy tweeting that goes on! Massive congrats on such a beaut magazine yet again! Big Sparkly love!

Here's me & the girls at the party...


Hope everyone has lovely weekends planned, don't let the weather get you down! I plan on seeing some old friends and doing some dressmaking (I have so many patterns and fabric just waiting to be attacked!)

Lots of love! x

Candyland & Pastel Dreaming ♡

Ah gosh I have seriously been neglecting my little blog recently due to more travels around doing work experience & various things! I have been working on a whole load of mini little projects though so lots to blog about very shortly! 

Even though the weather isn't helping I've been getting much more into summer mode! Thinking of pretty cocktails to make, and trying to update my wardrobe by changing it around a bit and customising a few pieces! I've also got even more into pastels and candyness than I was before (If this is possible). 

Through clearing out some old clothes I discovered my Sky Dancer doll, did anyone else have one of these? This was probably one of my favourite ever toys as a child - so many good memories of family caravanning holidays running around setting her flying away! <3. 

So the theme for these few drawings was really the rainbow, unicorns, magical childhood dreams and pastels and sparkles galore! I hope you like them (: Welcome to Candyland <3

Would anyone like to see some candy things in my etsy? I'm thinking of perhaps doing a few mini prints soon! More sparkly pastel things will be posted here soon too (: Let me know what you lovelies think! 

Hope everyones got lovely weekends planned - Is anyone going to the wonderful BalladOf's CandyPop Party - yay to overload of candy times! I literally cannot wait Ballad is always full of such dreamy goodness! 
Lots of love x x x x
