Studs and Spikes and All Things Nice


Hello Again!

I'm baccccccccck!

Unfortunately I've not been able to post anything for what seems like ages!  But here I am again, and I have so many new things to talk about!

So, bearing this in mind, I'd like to introduce you all to one of my favourite jewellery designers- Lauren Ridley of Cherryloco Jewellery. 
I first stumbled across Cherryloco Jewellery at Sloans Market in Glasgow. I wasn't actually looking to buy anything but then I saw this:

Anyone who knows me will tell you, I'm a sucker for all things quirky and slightly Gothic. There's just something about the  image it creates for me! Rockstar chic yum yum yum....

Lauren describes her work as being "an array of unique, colourful and somewhat naive jewellery pieces laced with a quirky sense of fun."  It is all painstakingly hand-crafted and bang on trend, already having been featured in magazines such as Shout, Cosmo and Mizz.

And with clothes taking on a distinctly Gothic vibe this season, you can imagine how happy I am and how easy it's been for me to make Cherryloco Jewellery my go-to place for accessories.

I've actually become somewhat of an addict...

Cherryloco Jewellery also has an array of lovely, vintage and 1950's inspired pieces featured on both Folksy and Facebook, all of which I recommend you have a wee gander at!


 Anyway, that's enough for now.

See you all later,

Love
V <3


ps. Cherryloco Jewellery is launching a new range on Monday 24th September!

Hello! It's Nice To Meet You!

Hi!

I decided that before I even started blogging about everything and anything, I would introduce myself to those of you keen enough to read my ramblings. And so, without anymore dallying on my part, here's some random wee facts about me. 

My name is Victoria Warnock- but I have been known to answer to V, Vicky, Vicky-Toria, Vic, Vickydoubleyou and Victor (although the last one isn't necessarily by choice!)
I'm 5'3.
I think my hair is my best feature- when it isn't making me look like I've been dragged through a hedge backwards.
I was originally studying to be a school teacher but I've always wanted to do something related to fashion and journalism.
I have far too many clothes for my own good, and I never have anything to wear.
I was born and raised in Glasgow.
I'm a second year student at the University of Stirling.
At least 1/3 of my wardrobe is made up of vintage finds.
My most prized possession is my Alexander McQueen scarf.
I love living in Scotland because the landscape reminds me of fairy-tales and magic.
I generally don't care about what people think of me- but I do have bad days sometimes and I'm secretly quite sensitive.
My best memories are of spending time with my friends- waking up the morning after an amazing night out and thinking "What happened last night and who the hell is spooning me?! Oh, it's so-and-so. Let's go back to sleep now!"

Well, I've rambled and if you've managed to make it through this- Thanks!!!  And keep checking because eventually this blog WILL get more interesting.

Bye for now!
Love,
