If You Go Down To The Woods Today.....

You know what happens...

You have a gap between classes or a tiny wee bit of extra time on your lunch break and you decide to peruse the amazing world of online shopping. We all have our go to sites- ASOS, Pret-a-Portobello, H&M online ect.- and you know you'll always see something that you like. And you do. But sometimes you find something that you just need to have.  Not only do you like it, suddenly you find yourself daydreaming about what your life will be like when you own it.

Well, that happened to me today. I donated blood this afternoon (my good deed for the week!) and as a wee treat I decided to let myself explore the wonder that is Etsy. Not something I usually do as I always see so much more than I could ever afford to buy. But then I saw this!

3D Bronze Rattlesnake Head Pendant from Moon Raven Designs on Etsy

I know animal and wildlife inspired jewellery has been around for a long, long while now but these pieces are fundamentally unique compared to what you usually find in your average Highstreet store.  Moon Raven Design makes actual casts of real-life creepy-crawlies and turns them into pieces like this beauty here. And the attention to detail is exquisite- each little scale is polished to perfection and as a result all of this jewellery is absolutely worth paying that bit extra for.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm away to spend a stupid amount of money because they do rings and other pretty tidbits too!

Bye again for now,
Love

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, 

V <3
