Miss Cherry Makewell

Hi dolls,

Do you remember my burger and fries headscarf from Miss Cherry Makewell?? It's unforgettable but in case you missed out on the post here it is. Miss Cherry Makewell (https://www.etsy.com/shop/misscherrymakewell) is an amazing store that offers gorgeous, vintage style and retro handmade accessories. The owner and designer of Miss Cherry Makewell is Jodie Dubberley and she is not only a talented, craftsy person, she's also so sweet and generous. She'll go out of her way for her clients. I have to add that her adorable French Bulldog is called Elvis so that makes me like her even more!! ;) 

To get an idea of what you'll find at MissCherryMakewell, here are my red flower studs, pineapple studs, ice lolly pocket mirror and......

the perfect rockabilly, leopard headscarf!!!
A closeup of the dainty red flower studs and the beautiful pineapple studs: 
Mmmmmm double popsicles! I carry this mirror around with me all the time:
Here below, I am wearing Miss Cherry Makewell's pineapple studs.  I love them so much! <3 I wore them at a Hawaiian Beach Party and they matched my top!
Three MissCherryMakewell items on one lucky gal! ;)

Ciao bambole! 

Vi ricordate la mia fascia per capelli con gli hamburger e le patatine di Miss Cherry Makewell? Beh è indimenticabile ma se non avete letto il post, eccolo quì. Miss Cherry Makewell è un negozio che vende accessori strepitosi, fatti a mano in stile vintage/retrò, tendenza rockabilly. La proprietaria e creatrice del negozio è Jodie Dubberly, una ragazza talentuosa ed altrettando dolce. Il suo bulldog francese si chiama Elvis quindi ho ancora più stima di lei!! ;) 

Adoro questi orecchini fiore rosso, orecchini ananas, specchietto ''ghiaccioli'' e la fascia per capelli leopardata!! Sono sbarazzini, kawaii e perfetti per il mio gusto rockabilly. Se non avete già visitato il suo negozio, lo straconsiglio!

If you haven't already taken a peek at MissCherryMakewell's store, I highly recommend it! There are big hair bows, watermelon earrings, headscarves with biscuits or popcorn all over!! Out of all the headscarves out there, Miss Cherry Makewell's are my favorite because they're soft, easy to tie, they taper at the ends and they're the perfect width and length. They're also reversible so you get two headscarves for the price of one and they're by far the cutest prints :) All of her items are gorgeously fun, high quality and most importantly, made with LOVE!

Rockabilly Cupcake Earrings by Milushka



Calling all modern pin ups, rockabellas and sweet tooths!

As you can tell from this post's title, today I have something deliciously sweet for your eyes (and ears) .......
 My new pair of Double Cherry Polka Dot Cupcake Stud Earrings by Milushka:

^I think Milushka's cupcakes à la rockabilly are perfection! Wouldn't you agree? 
Look at those cherries, the frosting and the polka dot cupcake liners! 
Oh and in case you haven't noticed, the cupcakes are chocolate mmmm <3

These earrings are even prettier in person. Being the extreme sweet and chocolate lover myself, I would eat these studs but then I wouldn't be able to wear them and that would be a shame! ;) I love that they're the perfect size and that the colors go perfectly with my rockabilly outfits.

Rétro Chérie


Everyone needs a bit of glamour and rock and roll in their life......
c'est obligatoire, cherie. I mean, Rétro Chérie! :) 


Today, it is with great plaisir that I write about a fabulous shop called 


This store, located in France, specializes in handmade rockabilly and vintage style jewelry and accessories. This is the perfect shop for nostalgic ladies and even if you're not nostalgic, let's face it: retro fashion will never go out of fashion! 
At Rétro Chérie, you will find one-of-a-kind '30s, '40s, '50s and '60s style jewelry, made out of materials such as confetti lucite, celluloid and fakelite, which are perfect for that retro look! This shop not only proposes reproduction of jewelry but also creation of vintage style jewelry. Sounds like a retro paradise, right? Well, there's more! All of the gorgeous earrings and brooches from Rétro Chérie are made by........guess who? 

Elvis. 

Yes, you read right. Imagine my face when I received a message on my computer from Elvis!!! Rétro Chérie's owner's name is Elvis, a lovely and super talented person (and an Elvis fan, by the way), who hand-paints and hand-sculpts all of the creations from the shop. These items are carefully given birth at a workshop in Paris, called ''Treat Me Nice Baby'' (just like The King's song ;)).  In this workshop, Elvis' job is also to restore ceramic artworks to keep Paris' cultural heritage alive, which is why the items must be indeed ''treated very nice''!

Elvis' passion for the glamour, music and lifestyle of the good ol' days is more than evident. Here are a few items from Rétro Chérie, to make your knees weak:


Beautiful hoop earrings from the new collection
Which is your favorite color??
Fun Boomerang brooches from Rétro Chérie's collection, ''It's Ballroom time'' 
This collection is inspired by Glen Miller's song, ''Make Believe Ballroom Time''
Closeup of a brooch. Look at the incredible details! These are all works of art.
 ''Three cool cats'' brooches and black earrings
Purrrrrfect for cat lovers and Halloween
''Crazy Music'' sparkly, gold disc earrings 
Just lookin' at them makes you wanna rock'n'roll!


Here are the earrings I'm wearing and Rétro Chérie's charm. 
Check out that cool Elvis hairstyle! ;)


Bonjour! Oggi ho voglia di parlare en français perché vi porto in Francia, precisamente a Parigi, dove si trova un negozio meraviglioso: Rétro Chérie.  Questo negozio è specializzato in gioielli ed accessori stile rockabilly e anni '20 fino agli anni '60. Io sono completamente incantata dagli oggetti di questo negozio, tutti fatti a mano usando perfino materiali 'retrò'. E indovinate come si chiama la persona che crea tutte queste opere d'arte? ELVIS. Già, come se non bastasse la bellezza degli accessori per svenire!! :) Elvis ha un talento incredibile e lavora nel suo workshop ''Treat Me Nice Baby'' (come la canzone di Elvis Presley ;)) dove non solo scolpisce e dipinge questi gioielli stile vintage, ma restaura pure opere d'arte in ceramica per conservare il patrimonio culturale di Parigi.  

Adoro questi orecchini di Rétro Chérie che sfoggio nelle foto; sono unici. Come tutti gli articoli del negozio. Non mi sembra vero che finalmente si trovino accessori uguali a quelli che si portavano una volta <3 Gli orecchini e le spille che avete visto in alto sono solo un assaggino di quello che troverete da Rétro Chérie. Inoltre, potete anche richiedere accessori su misura! Negozio consigliatissimo. Su, cedetevi e lasciatevi trasportare in un mondo retrò, pieno di accessori scintillanti! La moda retrò non andrà mai fuori moda, cherie. Anzi, Rétro Chérie ;) 

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


I confess: I am a Rétro Chérie addict! :) I am so impressed with the style and the quality of the hoop earrings I'm wearing.  A while ago, I went to see the movie, Man from U.N.C.L.E, based on the 1964 TV series and I fell in love with the retro earrings that the actresses wear on screen. I thought it would be impossible to find these kind of earrings nowadays but Rétro Chérie proved me wrong!! 


Among the items for sale, you will also find shimmery sea horse brooches, sparkly ''Martini Time'' brooch and earrings sets, Tiki, tropical and rock'n'roll style accessories. The icing on the cake is that you can also request custom orders at Rétro Chérie, so you can pick any style and color your heart desires! It doesn't matter where your heart is located because this shop offers worldwide shipping.

Rock and roll over to Rétro Chérie's shop!
