Groovy Funky Happy Crazy


Hi dolls,

Do you remember my post on Alice's Pig? The one where I wore their beautiful Sally's Sailor striped dress? Click here if you missed that post!

Today, I'm wearing Alice's Pig's Festival Tee, a super fun and awesome tee! 
Here I am, feelin' grooovy ;)
Aren't the pink borders that match Alice's pig and the little hearts, adorable? 

Ciao bambole. Vi ricordate il mio post sulla marca di moda inglese, Alice's Pig? Oggi mi sono messa la loro Festival Tee, una maglietta iper-carina, divertente e comodissima. Perfetta per questo tempo! Alice's Pig è una marca originalissima e ho visto che la loro collezione invernale, appena uscita, è ispirata al vintage. Vorrei acquistare questa gonna a tubino bellissima. Che ne dite? :)

*****************************************************

Can't help but gush over this unique T-shirt by Alice's Pig and the lovely bag with their logo. Alice's Pig is a groovylicious brand and guess what I just found out? Their vintage-inspired winter collection is out now! This beautiful pencil skirt is on my want list.....gotta stay warm in fashion this winter :)

Have a groovy, funky, happy and crazy week everyone!

Sushi Brooch by Coucou Suzette


Anyone like sushi? I sure do! I like sushi so much that I even wear it ;)
Doesn’t this sushi brooch look just like the real thing?? It’s from Coucou Suzette.

Coucou Suzette’s jewelry and accessories are all handmade by the très belle and talented, Juliette Mallet, at her workshop in Paris. Her work has a distinctive kitsch and ethnic influenced style, inspired by her travels, particularly to Japan where she continued to study Art for a period of time after studying it in Paris. In fact, you’ll notice gorgeous sushi earrings, sushi necklaces and sushi brooches in her shop. I love her maki necklace (here) and tamago sushi brooch here (perfect if you don’t like raw fish!!). Juliette’s talent doesn’t stop at sushi though.

At Coucou Suzette, you’ll find other fun pieces such as a ceramic pizza necklace, African inspired bracelets and necklaces, watermelon earrings, ice cream earrings, clay pin-up necklaces, cute pins and patches for your clothes and....boobie earrings, necklaces and rings!
I even pulled out my soy sauce and wasabi for this.
Itadakimasu! Oh this brooch also understands French so, bon appetit!
Ciao a tutti! Chi di voi ama il sushi? A me piace così tanto che lo indosso pure ;) Questa spilla incredible, fatta di ceramica, che sembra un vero pezzo di sushi, è di Coucou Suzette, un negozio situato in Francia. La proprietaria del negozio e la creatrice degli accessori è la bella e talentuosa Juliette Mallet. Il suo stile è molto particolare, ispirata al kitsch e all’etnico. Dalle sue creazioni si intravede la sua passione per il Giappone, dove ha continuato a studiare Arte dopo averlo studiato a Parigi. Date un’occhiata a questa collana maki bellissima e questa spilla tamago sushi (perfetta, se non vi piace il pesce crudo!!).

Oltre ai sushi, troverete collane di pizza ceramica, orecchini a forma di anguria, braccialetti etnici e molti altri oggetti originalissimi. Infatti, le creazioni di Coucou Suzette sono pezzi unici o molto limitati. Io sto già addocchiando un'altra spilla di sushi... la spedizione era molto tempestiva a proposito! Tenetevi aggiornati seguendo Coucous Suzette sui siti in basso:

Just look at the rice and the glossy salmon sashimi on top! This sushi brooch was hand molded, painted and covered with shiny resin. Juliette loves making these so you’ll notice many items that are made out of glazed ceramic at Coucou Suzette.

I loved the beautiful packaging too.... look at those funny sumo wrestlers on the envelope! They better stay away from my nigiri!! Coucou Suzette offers worldwide delivery and the delivery was très quick indeed.

Do note that all items from Coucou Suzette are unique and very limited. You can keep track of new items by following Coucou Suzette on the below sites:

Miss Cherry Makewell


Hamburgers and french fries on a headscarf?! Is this a dream??

Nope! This mouthwatering headscarf is from Miss Cherry Makewell
a shop that truly exists!


Inspired by retro and vintage fashion, Miss Cherry Makewell offers adorable, fun and kitschy accessories, all handmade with love by the shop's owner and designer, Jodie Dubberley (a.k.a. Miss Cherry Makewell). Jodie is not only a sweetheart, she also has a French Bulldog whose name is Elvis!!! Need I say more? ;)

You can also find Miss Cherry Makewell's accessories at vintage festivals and events in the United Kingdom, where this store is based.  If I lived in the UK, I would for sure be ogling her stall like a maniac but thankfully, online purchases and worldwide delivery is possible! I was impressed in fact by how speedy the delivery was. Miss Cherry immediately sent out the package so it got to my door before I could say ''Hamburgers and fries!''

Isn't Miss Cherry Makewell's logo so cute?

   The moment I laid eyes on this Burger and Fries Headscarf, I knew I had to have it on my head (and almost in my stomach). Not only is it such a quirky headscarf, it's soft (100% cotton), the ends are beautifully tapered and the length is perfect. What's even more fantastic is that this scarf is reversible (with burgers on one side and fries on the other) so you can choose which yummy side to wear and you're getting two exclusive headscarves for the price of one! 

Look at the amazing details: olives, pickles, bacon and melted cheese!!!


Oh and those golden fries......

Buon pomeriggio a tutti, questo non è un sogno. 
Ci sono veramente hamburger e patatine succulenti su questa fascia per capelli! La troverete da Miss Cherry Makewell, un negozio in Inghilterra la cui proprietaria è la dolcissima, Jodie Dubberley. Lei crea questi accessori spiritosissimi per capelli, tutti a mano e perfetti per un look divertente e rockabilly! Di tutte le mie fasce per i capelli, questa è la mia preferita (ovvio! ;)), non solo per la fantasia deliziosa ma anche per la qualità, la morbidezza e il fatto che è reversibile: ci sono gli hamburger da un lato e le patatine dall'altro. Due fasce per il prezzo di uno! Se non vi piace il cibo spazzatura (scusa ma non possiamo essere amici), troverete altre fantasie originalissimi da Miss Cherry Makewell. Ed è meglio sbrigarvi perché vanno molto a ruba! Spedisce anche in Italia, e devo dire che inaspettatamente la mia fascia è arrivata in pochissimi giorni! <3


*************************************************************************

I own many headscarves but this one from Miss Cherry Makewell is my favorite. If you're not a fan of junk food, we cannot be friends but no worries, you'll also find plenty of fruity, flowery and polka dotty headscarves at Miss Cherry Makewell. Look out for her headscarves made out of incredible vintage comic fabric, those with a candy shop motif, a Hello Kitty pattern and much more!

Whether you're having a bad hair day or a great hair day, Miss Cherry Makewell's beautiful bows and spunky headscarves are perfect for rockin' a playful, rockabilly look! She's the go-to place for exceptional headscarves, all jam-packed with personality! I'm already eyeing her Halloween Black Cat and Pumpkin headscarf...

So cherries, grab your favorite Miss Cherry Makewell hair accessories before they're sold out and keep your eyes peeled for new designs, competitions and announcements by following her on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter:
