Le Voyage dans la lune ♡

So last night I finaaally got round to watching Hugo, hands down one of the most magical and amazing films I've seen in a long time! It had the perfect balance between really hilarious moments, and parts that were so enchanting I started to get teary - what's even more amazing is that in very large part the story is true. It was so beautiful realising how ones man's beautiful dreams happened - and how he was a pioneer of film to showcase the make believe  and as a medium of art - it was spellbinding and seriously inspiring! 

Having always been a massive Air fan, when they created a soundtrack to the beautiful fairytale like film Le Voyage dans la lune by Georges Melies, I had to watch & listen straight away. (Hugo is about Melies life)

The film was originally made in 1902 and has just been finished in it's remastered state - a process which has taken a seriously long time! The results are so gorgeous and dreamy though! I can't stop watching it and wanting to be in that dream world <3 Here are some shots from Le Voyage dans la lune

Hope your all having lovely weeks! Lots of love x x x 

A mystical land of mermaid's & a dose of pastel loving - April favourites♡

Hello lovelies! Hope your all having a lovely month of April so far - can't believe how time flies & I haven't blogged anything in over a week! I've spent the past week down in Falmouth on holiday with the fam which has been super lovely,


so nice to just watch the waves and relax! Feeling even more super inspired by all things mermaid and pastel combo's, so thought I'd make a little collage of my current favourites! Hope you like!..

From Top Column (From Left): 'Moonrise Kingdom' - the new wes anderson film which is out next month..& I am VERY excited about, everything about it looks true to his usual fantastic style and form - so beautiful - I can't stop watching the trailer for the clothes, dreamy colours and pretty tune..ahh wish it would come out already! Beautiful sea shell/ underwater inspired jewellery, looking like it came straight out of a mermaid's chest, I definitely need a pretty piece soemthing along these lines to wear with long lacey dresses & turquoise & gold glitter nails in summer months! <3, Pastel Horses/decorative things - so spring like I am so attracted to all nic naks pastel coloured and detailed at the moment <3

Second row: Bag of dreams! (If anyone knows where its from please inform!), sugar pink shell shaped with a long gold clasp, the perfect accessory to fulfil current mermaid dreams! Mini Blythe mermaid - HOW CUTE! I love her turquoise hair, actually considering adding some turquoise to mine at some stage but might have to just get a wig (don't think I could move away from pink for too long!), Long beautiful blended pastel hair - this is just too perfect & mermaid-y in itself!

Third row: Charlotte Free (again) in perfect editorial - plush pink sofas, sparkly lavender socks - love it!, The disney little mermaid - because part of your world is one of my ultimate favourites! - and I can't watch it enough <3, Gorgeous sea shell inspired bra-let (again if anyone knows where it's from?) - too perfect!, I can see it with a long flowy skirt and some sparkly platforms ee <3

Fourth row: BIG marie antoinette hair, with pastel flowers and feathers and loose - proper mermaid style, Very fluffy skirts/ Cardi's - like wearing a giant ball of fluff - perfect to liven up an outfit I so need something in this description!..and finally...another wildfox lookbook I can't get enough of..rainbow pastel cats...cotton candy hair and matching candy can <3 They're just too good!

Hope you all have wonderful inspiring weekends full of lots of sugary treats and family times! <3 Have a lovely easter! To finish here's a little candy carousel I doodled recently...

Lots of Love! x x x x♡

I'm really a mermaid ♡

Completely obsessing over Wildfox at their summer collection at the moment, feeling super inspired by the idea of the sea & mermaid and sparkles and shells <3 Watching Ariel in the little mermaid and wanting to be by the sea!

 Going to Falmouth tomorrow so think I'll probably do lots of drawing/designs based around the sea and a beautiful mermaid style girl. Wildfox never fails to amaze me with their lookbooks, and this one is just a whole new level of dreamy. Charlotte Free is so perfect! It's all so free & fun (: My wishlist from the collection is getting enormous! Here's an illustration I've been working on over the past week <3 

& some of the images from the lookbook, pink hair and pastely mermaidy long skirts and baggy tops - too perfect for words......

Hope everyone has nice weekend and sunshine plans! Hope you like! Lots of Love x x x x
