The good thing about living in a very touristic suburb, is that I get a wide selection of international magazines on my closets and only newsagent. I had 5 min to burn, browsing all the March issues they just brought in, from Russian, French, German, Spanish and British magazines. And the one who mainly brought my attention, was this cute navy dress featured in More Magazine from Boohoo.com.

I rushed home to check their whole collection online, and WoW, I came up with an incredible A List of cute sailor, flower, dot, dresses and jumpsuits. Plus the price range is around £15. It will definitely be a boohoo.com year for my closet knowing how broke I’m at the moment. And well done for those online sores that can bring  cute and affordable clothing to all of us, and with an international delivery service, even though we can’t expect to much on the quality.

Sorry for not having posted for a while now, but my time has been consumed as the speed of light and don’t know where exactly it disappeared. Not a good excuse but I promise I’ll try and catch it up.

Well, last week was my birthday, carnival and also had friends over, so it didn’t give me enough time to take care of Lady Marshmallow, however I have been working hard on my collection that I hope to launch mid March.

Lolita and Navy is two of my biggest themes for this SS 2010 collection and bellow you can find two images that inspired me on it, Kubricks movie Lolita and the beautiful David Hamilton pictures full of femininity, nature and flower power.

 

 

Also I have been addicted to watch promotional short-films with a fairy tale inspired scenes, such as Spell for Lula Magazine, Dollhouse by Ellen Von Unwerth, Magnolia Tree and Island, that you can find bellow by Stella McCartney for Net-a-Porter. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do, a dreamy wonderful world that I wish to live in.

It’s hard to get rid of the Navy trend, that has been imposing fashion for a while now. And I’m not at all surprise how those cute little blue, white, baby doll, Lolita dresses, are hypnotizing all of us, at least myself. I’m addicted to all styles and shapes. From pants, dresses, dungarees, always while they keep the navy theme.

Here is a selection of  my favorite clothing and accessory items that I found on Internet.

 

Urban Outfitters

Dear Creatures

Dear Creatures is a young playful collection that offers unique pieces with a nod to the past. I discovered the brand thanks to Liebemarlene Vintage, one of my very favorite bloggers. Their Spring 2010 nautical clothing, it’s all I ever wished for.

Keep the navy theme, with some inspiring nautical Toms shoes, or even those lovely Vintage saddle shoes, that will look gorgeous with a dress, dungaree, shorts, etc… Also, a nice pair of ballerinas will look great, and if you rather go for high heels, try a pair of the so trendy clogs, similar to the ones Chanel exposed on its SS 2010 catwalk.

 

Nautical looks are everywhere at the moment, so it will be very easy to find similar clothing, accessories and shoes around your closest hig street stores. If you didn’t find anything yet, just wait for a little while that they bring out the Spring collection.

Also please check my Etsy store, as I have two gorgeous vintage Navy dresses and a lovely pair of vintage saddle shoes.

I will be away again for a week, and obviously I’ll be without Internet, and therefore, no post. So in order to not let you down, I decided to do a little competition, where you can win this fabulous Navy Vintage dress worth 60€.

 

 

 

 

The winner, that I will select on my return, will recieve the dress for free. I will also take in charge the delivery services, so the only thing you’ll have to do if you are the winner is send me your address.

The rules are the following:

1. Introduce at least 10 of your friends to Lady Marshmallow. You can do this by sending them my URL link http://www.ladymarshmallow.com

2. In order to find out who of you introduced 10 new friends to Lady Marshmallow, the only thing they need to do is add a comment bellow this post and give me your name.

3. They will have to join Lady Marshmallow on facebook, in the follow me section on my blog, so that I can see that they are not the same person using different names.

That’s it. The person who introduced more friends to Lady Marshmallow will get the dress.

Good luck to you all and see you next week.
