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

Turquoise hazey summer skies♡

Today I have been majorly procrastinating and daydreaming, planning my dream summer wardrobe, making to do lists, deciding what to take on my mini holiday to Falmouth next week and embarking on a couple of new little projects - one quite exciting one is I'm attempting my own dream-filled book of illustrations (: 

The sky has been so incredibly gorgeous and blue and it's been so sunny <3

I can't stop looking at Wildfox Couture's beautiful summer collection, listening to Royksopp & Groove Armada and just being generally excited about summer!

Here's a little illustration I've been working on based on the beautiful Lyndsey <3

In other super exciting new's I'm going to be part of an exhibition in Urban Outfitters High Street Kensington run by the absolutely delightful MoonKo, called Once Upon a Time, with a couple of truly wonderful other little artists/illustrators (: It opens in April so be sure to come have a look if your about!

Hope everyone's had gorgeous days! Lots of love! x x x x 

Pink Cotton Candy Wonderland♡

Thought I'd share some favourite February (and all time) inspirations & things I'm forever obsessed with straight from the wonderland ...

♡

From Top Left: Top Row: Charlotte Free & her dreamy style & ever changing pink hair (a girl after my own heart), The Virgin Suicides Photography Stills book (been trying for over 4 years to get a copy and its so rare, but sometimes catch glimses of its gorgeous contents on blogs & fall in love all over again), Pink haired Blythes..I am forever a Blythe super fan and these ladies will always come tops!..


Second Row: A sneaky peak at a very special Marie Antoinette illustration I've been working on for a very lovely lady (you'll find out more soon!), The Pastel Hair spread from Lula magazine a few years ago, I continually look at it and wish I could have every colour and float around in fairy space like the pretty girls in the pictures, Miniature Carousels! (SO dreamy!!)


Third Row: Lana Del Rey in her Vogue Spread March Vogue 2012, I've loved her since the moment I first heard her, I don't care if she's massive and tons of people hate her for silly reasons, at the end of the day I think she's beautiful inside and out and her voice is just delightful, Wild fox new collection & collaboration with Jeffrey Campbell...ballet platforms and long floaty pastel lilac skirts..my wish list is forever growing!! So perfect! ♡, Miniature cakes and dollhouse things! I need to get a dollhouse & start collecting it's all so gorgeous! 


Fourth row: Sleeping beauty, forever inspiring and my most favourite princess fairytale of all, Louis Vuitton S/S 12, Candy colours, ice cream and a fashion show where they all rode on a giant carousel...stuff of dreams! & lastly, unicorns, they are always a big feature in my imagination, and I love drawing them..fantastic excuse to always get the glitter out! They also remind me of one of my favourite 90's films 'The last unicorn'. 


I managed to finally get my hair to the cotton candy shade I wanted today tooo - yay! 


& Some new prints I've previously posted about are now available in my shop! ...Rose Petal Deer Shop


Hope your all having lovely weekends! Lots of Love x x x
