The Kool Aid Kid's Latest Purchase




I'm a huge fan of Tom Binns, a jewellery designer whose designs are favoured by people like Michelle Obama and SJP in 'Sex and the City'.



And as a jewellery collector, only one thing stands in the way of me buying it all... and that's the price.



as seen on Eva Longoria


But thank the powers that be for 'Disney' (who'd ever think they'd hear me say that?!)




Disney Couture have comissioned Tom Binns to create a range of jewellery for Alice In Wonderland- my favourite childhood Disney film and book.




It's a win/ win situation!

They're bang on trend with the current British obssession with Keys, Vintage, Alice In Wonderland, Kooky feel that we have going on.



They'll go great with either the floral/ hippy/ festival or rock chick look.

http://www.asos.com/ have an excellent range of Disney Couture Jewellery that's a really good price.



I have just bought myself the following two pieces from http://www.zentosa.com/
Disney Couture Alice in Wonderland Silver ID Key Bracelet
£25.00


How excited am I!?!?!?!?!
Not only were  they reasonably priced, UK delivery is free!!!!


Disney Couture Alice In Wonderland Multi Keys Charm Bracelet
£45.00


Disney and jewellery fans check it out!

Happy days

The Kool Aid Kid's Latest Style Crush




I love me some boots.

At last count... I had 10 new (as in, this year alone) pairs in my wardrobe.

I thought I would share my latest crush with y'all.



Dr Martens.

We all remember them.

I had a purple pair when I was a kid.



I'm currently craving the Triumph 1914 Boot

They're soooooo pretty.


I would wear this pair with skinny jeans or jeggings and an ultra feminine top (I dont do floral) just for a bit of contrast.

Jewellery is key to keeping this look urban/rockabilly.

I would have my trusted charm bracelets on anyway, then on the same arm I'd pull the 'Kool Aid Kid' signature bracelet look: layer lots - and I mean LOTS- of bracelets on one arm and stop them from flying off my arm by putting my BAPE G-Shock toy watch on.

A long multipul rope chain and a HUGE pair of hoops and I'm good to go.








Onto my second crush of the moment....

The classic 1B60 Knee High Black Dr Martens




I think I'm loving the patents... I just worry these'll be a bit much for a day to day thing.

Not that I care.

But I have 3 pairs of patent shoes and really only wear my chunky heel brogues.

Shame that.



They really are pretty....

Anyways, before I get distracted.







I would wear these slightly open with fishnets, over the knee socks (most likely rouched down to the top of the boot) and one of my ever present , growing in numbers and sleeve length American Apparel t-shirt dresses.






Throw one of my mum's retro blazer's on top, then stick a fork in me.

I'm done.

XOXO
