Pretty in Pink.....and Skulls!

Wednesday, 30 October 2013


Hello my sweety-pops! I hope your week is faring well so far! It's brightened up here, Monday was up and down, but since then the sun has been out at times. My cold is almost all gone now as well - hurrah!! I've been sat eating chocolate cake that my husband made, am convinced this has been the cure in making me better...my husband doesn't eat chocolate & he got worse, I tried telling him to eat some chocolate, he's starting to think I may be right, haha! A little bit of happiness makes all things better *wink* Anyways...this is one of the items I purchased from Collectif that I wrote about some weeks ago. I was actually at the start of my cold in these pictures & not feeling at all well, but I put on the dress to cheer myself up (it's only the second pink item I have in my closet) it definitely made me smile & I love the skulls :) The material is light and feels marvellous, such a wonderful dress, it came quite fast in the post too, which I appreciated. I adore the contrast of sweet pink with the edgy skulls, fantastic. I'm on the hunt for a lovely cardigan to wear with it now & a new skull necklace since I can't find my other one. I absolutely love Collectif (as you know) & shall most definitely make more purchases in the future too! The other item that I bought, I'll show off in another post once I get the things I have in mind to wear with it! But, I hope you enjoy these & check out Collectif if you haven't already! Have a gorgeous Wednesday dolls! I'm going to be getting for Halloween tomorrow, my girls costumes around (They're dressing up as Monster High Dolls) & watching the premiere of Dracula here in the UK that I've been waiting for months to come on - excitement!! Have a wonderful Halloween tomorrow!

 Loves & loves

    I'm so glad I get to see that dress, I could tell from your post on Monday that it was going to be pretty and it is! I agree about the sweet pink with skulls--such a great mix! Hope you feel better soon and have a little more chocolate. That's what I did last night when I wasn't feel well. It works!

    Beautiful!!! I'm so glad you're feeling better now. Next time I have a cold I'll eat some chocolate (okay I do this on a daily basis anyway). I just love skulls. Never owned anything pink with skulls. It's an marvelous contrast.

    For someone who was not feeling well, you look beautiful doll! I really like this dress. I'm not a fan of skulls. Too scary for me. Lol! But this dress is such a delicate pink and I really like the flowers enough so that I hardly notice the skulls. Oh! The butterfly necklace is lovely too honey! Thank you for sharing your pretties with us. Happy Halloween! Xo

You would've never known you were beginning to feel unwell. LOL, I didn't know Gavin didn't like chocolate! Does he eat any kind of candy? Hope you guys like dracula. There are some spicy moments!

Gavin gave up chocolate some time ago, though he did try some the other week, but wasn't really bothered by it. Haha. He's not really a candy person either, but he loves cakes and stuff like that, haha :)) Yes, I am so looking forward to Dracula tonight :))) Hahahaha...saucy saucy!! x
