Boho Ink… Metallic Tattoos

Boho Ink… Metallic Tattoos

Metallic, foil tattoos are the hottest trend this summer, and being a little (make that very) boho inspired, I’m totally obsessed with them! You can find them pretty much everywhere, and everyone’s wearing them, but my faves have got to be from Lulu Dk. Lulu DK is an international designer that has traveled the world for inspiration. Her designs include wall coverings bed linen, fabric and leather, as well as her gorgeous metallic tattoos. I bought myself a set from Old Khaki and absolutely love them! They last for a few days -although when I wore mine as “ring bling” it came off the same night – and they look gorgeous. I received tons of compliments on mine, and its no wonder, they are so stand out! I love mixing them with actual arm candy, and ya know, boho styled pieces like; lace details, fringes and beachy hair. And speaking of beach, metallic tattoos offer a great way to wear a little bling at the beach, without the risk of damaging or losing your precious jewellery. The set I bought was the La Femme collection, which includes one silver and one gold card with various designs. Although I’m more of gold girl (than a silver), I love to mix the two together for an eclectic look.…

Fab Find Friday – Bling-a-ring-a-rosy

Fab Find Friday – Bling-a-ring-a-rosy

I’ve always been a bling, bling girl – ok not always, but I’ve been told (by the source) that my mom has fond memories of me in pre-school (those days it was still called nursery school) wearing not one, but every single plastic bangle, necklace and ring I owned – all at once.  She used to call me “Bijoux” and say that my teachers could hear me, ding-ling and dangling miles away. My bling-blinging slowed down for a good couple of years, and slowly started up again when I was 18 and worked part time in a jewellery store, that sold fabulous silver pieces.  Nowadays, I just can resist buying more bling, and although Cindy (our resident Bags and Bling) lady has quite the collection, I vow to catch up. I’m not that keen on jewellery – the real stuff – apart from my engagement ring and wedding band, I don’t wear much “authentic” stuff and I am not that interested in gawking at jewellery store windows either. But take me to an accessories shop like Claire’s or Sass Diva and I’m in my element. I like the three B’s – Big, Bold and BLING.  So unless I can afford…
