What to wear - Holiday Party edition
The days are ever colder, the nights ever longer and everywhere you go, there is a faint sound of jingle bells and not so faint sound holiday songs. And an essential part of this holiday season seems to be the ever present holiday party! Some are with your coworkers, some are with your friends, and some are with your family.
Which ever one you decide or will have to attend, we have you covered. Like we do every month, we prepared a couple of suggestions that look stylish, give off that perfect mix of vintage and pinup vibes, and are appropriate for just about any occasion!
Who doesn't love a bit of sparkle? I mean, this is the perfect season to go all out and enjoy everything glittery your wardrobe has to offer! Paired with a black skirt with a playful yet elegant bow, and dramatic lashes, you're ready to shine!
There is just something about winter and velvet that seem such a perfect mix. You won't feel too warm in this velvet top thanks to its short sleeves, and to go just a little bit matchy-matchy, we paired it with of our current favourites - a green flocked skirt. A small, elegant purse is just what you need to finish this ensemble, and is the perfect place to stash your lipstick.
So, about that green flocked skirt.... of course we have a dress version of it too! Did you ever doubt our commitment to elegant and still slightly quirky style? We didn't think so. We love this dress not only because it seems perfect for just about any occasion, but also because it is so easy to match with other accessories, like this Woody Ellen purse.
Red is a such a wonderful holiday colour, and this dress is so incredibly flattering that we just had to include it. The full circle skirt will look great worn with or without a petticoat, and since it's the season of love towards your fellow man, why not show it with a heart-shaped purse!
What do you look forward to most during this season?

Halloween Party Time!
We are in Halloween spirit! Spooky skeletons and screechy bats are filling our daydreams, and we spend far too much time looking up the best recipes and Halloween decorations.
Kickass Cowgirls are always a good choice, especially when it means you can kick it in a pair of capris and a white top. All you really need is a pair of boots and a matching hat!
It's no secret we're obsessed with this dress. After all, we devoted an entire blog post to it, so you could have pretty much expected it will be here somewhere. We also popped over to our sister site, The Gothic Shop and got a pair of devil horns. And in case that's too subtle... some devil heart jewellery! Now excuse us while we go sing Devil in Disguise!
We wanted something vampy, we wanted something slightly sinister and alluring... we went with the dramatic and mysterious queen of spades in a black lace dress. We stole makeup from our big sis The Gothic Shop, because that glitter eyeliner is just perfect for some spade inspired makeup art!
We also remembered, almost at the last moment, that we might need a costume! These aren't our last moment Halloween ideas like we did last year, but they are costumes featuring our shop favourites. We went for the perfect combo of comfortable, stylish and flattering, so we, and you, can have fun while looking your best.

Office Pinup
Summer is over and it's time to go back to work!
Usually this would make us a little blue, but not this time, because we have some wonderful new dresses in which make us look forward to getting up each morning!
Plus, it's time to put away our summer dresses and nautical and bright floral prints, and replace them with tartans and darker florals, and all those delicious autumn and winter inspired patterns and colours. And to chase away your autumn blues, or maybe get you even more excited about the upcoming seasons, we've put together a few sets featuring pieces we just can't seem to get enough of!
We did say that we are looking forward to darker florals, didn't we? This dress is an absolute dream, and while it hugs the curves, it's still perfectly appropriate for your every day. That, however, doesn't mean you won't be turning heads!
And how about this gorgeous burgundy beauty? It features a velvet flocked print with a forest fairy tale scene. We added one of our favourite purses, and chose the lipstick to match. We're a bit old school that way, and like to match things, especially when it comes to blacks and reds.
We love the new tartans coming in this fall, and this dress is just perfect for those crisp fall days! We especially like the combination of red, white and green on it, which lets us pair it with all kinds of details. Of course, we still want a bit of fire in our days, so we added red details for that extra pop!
Is there such a thing as appropriate glam in the workplace? We are certain there is! A wonderful velvet-flocked skirt, a classical black cardigan... It just oozes style! And of course, adding a pair of unexpectedly eclectic heels turns that class into sass!
Are you a summer child, or do you prefer the colder part of the year?

Weekend Getaway
Summer vacations
may be over, but that doesn't mean that you are bound to stay where you are until
winter! Early autumn is the perfect time for a weekend getaway, preferably
somewhere to the countryside where you can enjoy the pleasantly warm days,
crisp, fresh nights and all the bounty nature has to offer.
And this month,
we are here to help you plan your weekend escape in style! We are suggesting
four outfits - for everything you might need, from country walks to romantic
dinners, that are sure to make you feel and look your best.
There is nothing
quite like arriving in style. We admit to have caught the pink flamingo virus
going on in the fashion world this summer, and decided to go over the top with
it. Sometimes you just have to indulge your girly side and go with all pink
everything!
An essential part
of every weekend getaway is the relaxing stroll through the countryside. We
mixed and matched patterns here for a more relaxed, playful look, but kept the
colours down to the classics – black, white and red.
A romantic dinner
is a highlight of every weekend getaway, and we went with an Audrey Hepburn
style dress and shoes you can dance in all night long.
And sometimes you just need to take a leisurely stroll
through a small town and admire the shops, take in the air and find the perfect
cup of tea and a dessert. Perhaps a lemon tart? This skirt really does put us
in the mood for some lemon-based treats!

A Dress For Every Occasion
We all know the mythical LBD - The absolutely must have little black dress which is oh so incredibly versatile and can be dressed up or down or worn to just about any occasion.
Well, with a little tweaking, this goes for a lot of dresses, and we decided to try our hand at the whole idea. We chose a shirtwaist dress we are absolutely in love with - The Meadow Dress, and created four sets for four occasions.
The first is our casual way to wear a dress, because far too many dresses linger in the closet waiting for a right occasion. We're not afraid to pair our dress with a pair of baseball shoes and a bandana for a quick and easy style.
Of course, an occasion like a party requires a little more effort, so we added some heels, a lovely parasol to keep you safe from sunburn, and a pretty little purse that matches the overall colours.
Of course, this dress is just as suitable for your workday, especially when paired with a cute cardigan, an adorable hair clip and a purse, all decked out in cherries for extra sweetness in your day!

Vamping this dress up for a night on the town was as easy as adding a higher heel and bolder jewellery (and black nail polish, because we're feeling extra vampy tonight), and a heartbreaker bag.
Of course, this dress is just as suitable for your workday, especially when paired with a cute cardigan, an adorable hair clip and a purse, all decked out in cherries for extra sweetness in your day!

How To Wear Blue in Summer
Amelia Kitten Print Pastel Blue 50's Dress features a sweetheart neckline and a complimentary wide belt. Just grab your cardigan and heels and you're ready to go!
If you're looking for office chic then the April Cherries print dress is perfect. A classic below-knee navy blue dress with capped sleeves to keep you cool throughout the 9 to 5 grind.
We absolutely love this nautically inspired Ambleside dress. Featuring a contrast striped sailor collar and hemline with gathering in the underbust and darts to shape the waistline. Team with bright red lipstick and heels for the ultimate summer ensemble.
Ahoy there! A key print for the season featuring anchors, ships wheels and stars adorn this beautiful Hepburn dress which we have just unpacked!
The incredibly elegant blue black satin of the Selema Dress makes it a firm wardrobe favourite for any evening occasion. Draping elegantly over your hips and thighs, with a high waistband and gathered boat neckline, this dress will shine wherever you go.
