All in Shopping Guide
So, now that the sun is shining here in LA I thought what better way to bring back the blog posts then with my favorite thing to do on here: a shopping guide. Today I wanted to pull together some of my favorite pieces from the indie brand 'Shop Fluffy," A UK based fashion company run by one of my style icons @Lulutrixabelle, whom you should go and check out on Instagram when you get a second. Her style is always on point and she also has one of the most aesthetic feeds I have ever seen.
In recent months I feel like every time I scroll through my feed I have about twenty promoted posted shoved down my throat by Instagram ads. The first to catch my eye was one that looked like an add for a LIPT Lable bodysuit. At first, I just thought it was a new product, but on closer inspection, I noticed that it was being marketed by a different company. When I followed the link to their page, I saw a number of copycat items, all of which were poor quality knock-offs of LIPT Label shorts and bodysuits. As you would most likely guess the prices they were charging for these knock-offs was far lower than that of the originals, and given that the account had a decent number of followers I am sure other people had taken notice as well.
In case you somehow missed it, Dolls Kill had a sample sale this weekend, and it was insane. If you watched their story, you could see people lining up for blocks down Fairfax, and apparently, some people even camped out to get a shot at being first in line, which is you saw the prices made perfect sense. Dolls Kill, in an attempt to Clea your extra inventory before going into the build-up to this year’s festival season decided to throw a two-day sample sale where you could buy everything from boots to body jewels are crazy low prices. On the second day, there were selling all shoes for only twenty dollars a pair, which is beyond a steal seeing as 'cheap' shoes at Dolls Kill usually means you are getting something for seventy dollars.
I think you all know that I go hard in the paint for Dolls Kill, but recently I have started trying to turn attention towards other places for us festival fashionistas looking to bring something a little bit different into our closets to check out. This is how I discovered what I can only describe as Dolls Kill's badass Australian cousin who is always slaying wherever she goes. I am talking about Tibbs & Bones, an Australian company that sells everything you need for festival season and even some things you didn't know you needed, but definitely do.
I am a big fan of weekender bags. I have always liked having them, but since I started going to events for two or three days, I have really fallen in love with these babies. Packing your rave gear is always enough of a struggle without having to lug around a giant suitcase, which is why weekender bags are so perfect. You get enough space to comfortably put a few days worth of outfits without feeling like you are packing for a year-long voyage, and their smaller size also limits you and stops you from bringing non-essentials with you, which if you are an over packer like me, also has its benefits.
In case you haven’t noticed by now, in the lead up to CRUSH Southern California I have been focusing specifically on valentines themed topics and shopping guides, and this one isn’t really going to be an exception. I hope you like pink. am a massive fan of pasties, and honestly, I don’t feel like they have gotten enough attention on here, so I wanted to take a moment to correct that. Pasties are basically the perfect rave accessory/ clothing item because they can be a piece of clothing by themselves or styled to accent one and take it to the next level.
Hey guys! Are any of you planning on going to Crush this year? If you are, I wanted to throw together some outfit ideas for you. Dressing for raves is always kind of a challenge, but dressing for a valentines day themed event creates some of its own challenges. So without further ado, here is some outfit Inspo/ a shopping guide for CRUSH.
Well, I couldn’t help myself. When I saw this collection drop on the Dolls Kill website, I knew I needed to have all of it. Thankfully I stopped myself from buying every single thing from the collection, but I did pick up quite a few pieces, and honestly, I couldn’t be happier with them. So I wanted to take some time to review the collection for those of you who may be on the fence about picking up some of the pretty pastel goodies.
I one hundred percent believe that Demonia Platforms are entirely worth the price tag. I know, I usually try and lead you into thinking these articles could go either way, but in this case, I really have nothing negative to say. I am the proud order of several pairs of Demonia Platforms, and though they were somewhat of an investment (as they are a little more expensive than some of the options out there), they have not disappointed. So, I wanted to break down a few reasons Demonia Platforms are the perfect purchase, and if you have been on the fence, you should go for it.
Hologram has been slowly but surely making a comeback and it isn’t hard to see why. The pearly, slightly white color looks fantastic on everyone no matter what their skin color, which is always a plus. As someone on the tan side of skin tones it is always nice to see colors that look great on more than one person come into style. So…without further ado, here are some of my favorite holographic looks of the year so far.
This week has been a particularly chilly one in Los Angeles, which combined with some beautiful pictures of a snow-dusted Lake Tahoe got me once again thinking about Snow Globe, which I will be attending in a few weeks. Mostly, it got me thinking about my outfits.However, when the Snow Globe wristbands come with a warning to wear thermals and waterproof boots, the usual bikini bottoms and pasties aren’t going to cut it. Thankfully, the Club Exx Snow Globe and Winter range has to become of the most amazing winter festival fashion I have seen.
Christmas is fast approaching, and if you are a last minute shopper like me, you are probably already starting to freak out about what to get the people in your life for Christmas. If that wasn't enough, Black Friday and Cyber Monday are going to be the best days for deals this holiday so hopefully many of the items listed here will be on sale and even less then the currently listed prices. I may not be able to help you shop for your grandma, but here is a gift guide for the raver babe in your life (or maybe just some cool gift ideas for yourself).
