Review of MooMoonZ Accessories- Wear All The Bows!!!

Hi there!

I'm back with another review and this one is for my favourite accessory company ever! For those of you who know me, you have probably noticed that I always wear a hair bow of some kind in my hair and this online shop is a gold mine of amazing handmade bows and other delights.

I present to you MooMoonZ!

 www. Moomoonz.com

Everything is handmade by the amazing creator Kathy, right here in the UK.   She makes hair bows, necklaces, bracelets, rings, earrings, has handbags coming and is currently selling some of the wildest most out there t-shirt designs ever.  I was very lucky to be gifted a really generous amount of gorgeous creations to show off to you. My hair bow collection is now museum worthy and makes me so happy everyday when I have to choose which to wear - even if it does make me late for work.

And now to show you all of the amazing bows, rings, and necklaces! Let the BOWverload begin!

Headwear: Comfortable Alligator clips stay in and don't slide!

Strawberries and Polka Dots:

Skully Ring: Adjustable around the finger, lightweight and really comfortable even on my chubby fingers- not to mention so cute.

Neckwear:

Guess What! They fit my neck perfectly! I don't usually buy necklaces online because they are snug or uncomfortable but these fit like they were made for me! All necks need to try!

Love Tattoo Necklace: I can now wear more than one bow in my outfit... marvellous!

Skull Cameo Necklace: Classy Badassy ;)

Everything is so well made and gorgeous and at amazing prices that means you don't have to pick just one thing - something I struggle with always. They ship internationally too! Ok now go visit MooMoonZ, then check her out on Facebook and buy some lovely things! Then, take photos of you wearing your purchases and share them with MooMoonz as she has a gallery on the website to show all you snazzy wearers off! WEAR ALL THE BOWS!!!

Snazzy Footwear On A January Afternoon

Hello again!

So back in January when I was home in lovely Toronto, I did a little photo shoot with my best friend Sarah to feature our newly purchased shoes. We each on different occasions bought pairs of killer heels that I thought why not do a post about it?

It turns out that Sarah also had a new outfit, for an upcoming wedding, to go with said new shoes, and so our little afternoon shoot was all set.

I brought back an old favourite piece because I have never featured it on my blog and I am secretly hoping that the fashion gods are listening and that they will invite Beth Ditto back for another collection/collaboration.

I'm wearing my favourite Beth Ditto lightning bolt sweater from the Beth Ditto  for Evans collection over a year ago, with a pair of cheap chic leggings from Primark. I snagged my blingtastic heels at Pretty Things Boutique in Halifax, Nova Scotia and they are very high but I can't resist them. I love the way they look and they make my calves look like I just ran a marathon.

Sarah is wearing an amazing fuchsia dress from Canada's new British favourite, Top Shop along with a black lace cardi/bolero from H&M.

Her snazzy and oh so soft fuchsia wedges are from Town Shoes, in Toronto and have the cutest tassels hanging off the zipper in the back. I'm not sure how she managed to find heels this amazing that match her dress like they were made from the same cut of fabric, but that's her amazing luck for you.

We did Sarah's makeup to match! Doesn't she look glamorous?

I know the photos are a couple of months old, and that my hair is completely different but I have been prepping this post forever and absolutely couldn't not share the pictures with you because they are so fun. Long live killer heels, sore calves and fabulous looking legs!!!

Review: AX Paris Curve

So this past week, AX Paris sent me one of their dresses from the new Curve collection to review. I chose the Navy Polka Dot Chiffon Floaty Dress  because I really don't have any dresses like this one, that are light and a little fancy. My wardrobe tends to be more casual than dressy so this makes a really nice addition for a night out or an event.

The dress is lined which is a lovely touch, as it doesn't stick to your tights when you walk. It also makes it sit a lot nicer on the body. In the photos, I am wearing my usual Spanx tights which shape a little, but don't change the silhouette of the dress at all as it is roomy in the bottom bit.

The dress is comfortable and pretty and has a lovely little bow that can be tied in front or back which could easily be swapped for a belt if you have more of a defined waist (unlike me). In terms of size, I am wearing a Size 20 and it fits just right on me. I would say that if it had sleeves, it would probably be a bit snug in the shoulder area so something to consider for sizing if you are ordering anything and have wider shoulders.

So check out their website because they have lots of fun prints like polka dots, hearts and leopard! :)

I did my makeup to match with my Coastal Scents Palate (navy blue and copper eyeshadows) and my Kat Von D. Tattoo Pen eyeliner.

Thanks AX Paris for sending me this dress, I feel oh so pretty in it.

And thank you to my darling boyfriend, Skull Car Steveo, for the lovely photos.

SWAP ALL THE CLOTHES!!!

Hey girls!

So since I am in the process of relaunching my blog as ToodalooKatie, I want to invite you all to a plus size clothes SWAP at my house out on my terrace.

In order to be a part of the swap you must bring a minimum of 5 plus size items but feel free to bring more of course! (I'm thinking sizes 14 and up) Clothes should be be clean and in a reasonable state of repair!

I will be baking some goodies but if you want to help or bring something please let me know. I would love the help :)

Please check out the event on Facebook to RSVP and get any updates.

I live in Bethnal Green (about a 7 minute walk from the station) and will send out the address to those who have confirmed in a message during the week before the event.

If you have any questions or comments feel free to message me directly or write on the wall.

I will send out a message closer to the time of the event to confirm numbers but I would love to see you all there!

If you want to help promo it or let others know, feel free to grab the poster from here or Facebook and pass it around :)
