Hey guys!
Well here's a little story for you...
On my birthday, my slightly wacky-but-lovely mother decided to get me something very...interesting. She got me loads of stuff that was all very nice and pretty normal, but I saw there was a big box at the end of the room. So my mum then said:
"I saw this at a vintage fair, you'll either love it or hate it."
So I was thinking she had possibly bought the world's biggest jar of marmite. Anyway, when I opened it I was faced with a mannequin! Not a full one though. Literally just the BODY of a mannequin, from the top of the legs to the neck. I was a tad confused. It was kind of awesome, but I thought I would have nightmares if it was just sat in my room! Turns out, it was fine. So now I use her as a necklace holder and I dress her up. As you do! Here are 2 pictures of Mandy-Quinn (geddit?!) in action:
The first picture has flash on, sorry if the pics aren't very good quality though - I took them on my iPhone!
Clothes
Scarf - Birthday Present (Shop in Norwich somewhere?!)
Black Jumper - H&M
Skirt - Primark
Bird Cage - Vintage Fair
I will have to post a picture of Mandy without my 'artistic touch' as she is made out of some crazy materials. If you haven't already guessed, I adore vintage things! I will have to do some posts about my room sometime as I have quite a few vintage items scattered around ;)
That's all from me today! So if you are reading this, feel free to comment any ideas for upcoming posts? What do you think about vintage styles and room decor? Have you ever recieved any wacky birthday/xmas presents? Let me know!
