Voodoo Vixen at LondonEdge

Good morning lovelies!

So last month, I, along with a big group of wonderful bloggers had the pleasure and good fun of attending LondonEdge with Voodoo Vixen as their models.  There were so many gorgeous girls of all different sizes wearing the brand's amazing dresses.

We each were able to choose a dress ahead of time to wear on the day and I ended up choosing something that I wouldn't usually go for to mix it up. I am wearing the Faith dress which is a lovely and soft knit dress with the sweetest floral and polka dot design.

We had our makeup and hair all done up and it felt so nice to look so gorgeous!

Thankfully, you can't tell but on this particular day I was coming down with the flu which had me out for the count for the following week so I'm glad I was still well  at this point.

I was so excited to attend LondonEdge because apart from being able to see all the great stallholders and bloggers, there was a blogger talk scheduled with Kat Williams from Rock n Roll Bride Magazine/blog. I have followed her for a long time and when I first got engaged, my best friend in Canada, Sarah, sent me the first print issue of the magazine.

 Here we all are sat listening to Kat speak.

So the day was really great and fun, but the night was even better. We were all invited to attend the after-party as Voodoo Vixen was one of the sponsors along with Jawbreaker Clothing and the party was really something else.

The venue was called Gem in Soho and there were live acts, drag queens, great music, dancing and drinks of course.

I'm sad to say that although I could have stayed all night, it was at this point that I started to feel ill and had to head home at a reasonable hour.

Thankfully, the lovely Sharon from Big Fat Betty had her camera handy and took a couple of snaps for me of the event.

I think it's important that I point out how friggin fabulous Abi from A is for Abi looks - OMG!

She is wearing the Hattie dress.

And here we all are, and Sharon is wearing another favourite of mine, the Marita dress which I featured on my blog here.

The music was great and the day and night were a blast - I can't wait for the next one where I will hopefully be feeling up to a full night of shenanigans!

Have you worn Voodoo Vixen - do you have a favourite?

It sounds like their plus size range is going to have lots of exciting stuff coming up so I would watch closely!!

It's My Party and I'll Dress How I want to!

Good morning lovelies,

I miss my fashion posts, so before I go back to telling you about my travels, I wanted to do a little post about my birthday picks. My birthday was on February 18th where I turned the ripe old age of 26 and I was travelling in Prague, which was awesome! 

I now plan on having a party in London, although no formal plans have been made yet, but I want to wear something special, so here are my favourites - which do you think I should wear?

 I managed to narrow the list down to my top 3:

Scarlett and Jo Red Rose Print Prom Dress - I love the sheer sleeves on this dress and the shape is so sweet!

Lovedrobe Cream Multi Heart Print Skater Dress - I can't help but love the print and trim detail on this dress, I'm positive it would look super cute and great for a birthday party!

Voodoo Vixen Connie Dress - The cut, the peephole neckline and the print are amazing on this dress!

Tell me all your thoughts!

Voodoo Vixen - Martini Style

Good morning my gorgeous friends!

So it's been chilly here in London, as one would expect for a couple of days after Christmas, and I have had my Christmas/NYE party thinking cap on as I have a few coming up. I know this is a little late but this is how I function, so too bad. I won this adorable martini print Marita dress, along with a cardi a month or so back from Vintage Life magazine and I have just now had a chance to get it out, creases and all to show you.

For those of you who weren't aware, Voodoo Vixen do pinup style dresses and cardigans and have only recently launched a plus size with some gorgeous bits. You can find them on Simply Be too!

I am wearing a 3X and the size fits well in the body, has a bit of stretch and I would say is equivalent to a 20. My only issue is the arms not fitting well on me. I can't quite tell if it's just the cut as there is plenty of arm hole fabric but it's more the finish at the end that is restricting, so take this into consideration when you buy.

I love the colour and cut and have opted to wear it with thick tights and boots in these pics. I think it works for everyday and for something more fancy, I will wear it with light tights and heels.

Have you tried Voodoo Vixen yet?
