Rik Villa Fashion Killa

Hi Rebels!
It feels like so long since I last sat down to write a blog post. Unfortunately the start of this college year hasn't been kind to my social or blogger life. This is my final year of my Btec National Diploma in Fashion and Clothing, so I've had lots of coursework hand in dates along with applying to UCAS and looking at universitie's it's all so scary.
However now that all my work load is slowing, I wanted to snap some photos and share some love on a new designer I discovered.
As a fellow fashion lover, aspiring blogger and many other things I always like to support new Artists and Designers. I also just love seeing new designs and being inspired (and in turn its a nice big happy circle of love).

The designer I'm featuring is 'Rik Villa' (what an awesome name) and I just so happened to stumble across his instagram and noticed he had these unreal custom bodysuits for sale.
I am a sucker for anything rock n roll, and Harley Davison is so... Iconic, I bought so much of their merchandise when I went to Vegas for my 21st birthday. The bright colours and the badass print on black as well just had me in awe. So I had to have it!!
I also have to comment on the design of this being so smartly thought of, this was of course what I assume to be a t-shirt to begin with and I love a good vintage t-shirt. But sometimes I want to wear them with skirts or shorts and I don't want that baggy vibe, so this being tailored into a slim fit body is just perfect, and it's got super hot 80's high thigh leg cut, so for me being short, it makes me feel like 'LEGS ELEVEN'                    


I honestly can't explain how happy I am that I found this!!






What I can also tell you is that Rik Villa is definitely set to go on to big things, he has his own trademark print 'bandana print' that he makes awesome trousers (I need them), dresses, Bra tops (so cute) , t-shirts, shirt dresses, jackets, almost everything out of. (not just for ladies, a wide range of his designs are for men too).
I personally just love it as I'm so into hip hop street styling at the minute with the music scene just blowing up again.

AND not to mention from following his Instagram he's racking up an awesome client list with some of my favourite artists from Iggy Azalea to Miley Cyrus.
Live Fast Nails from Henry House of Holland Nails available at boots.


His designs proving to be very popular sell fast but you can keep up to date with restocks by following his

or check out his Esty shop here: (direct link) Rik Villa Etsy .

Thank you all for reading and I hope you still enjoy my posts.
I'll be trying to post a lot more regularly now. I'm always up for ideas if there's anything you'd like to see me post more of. If you didn't notice I also took a plunge and coloured my hair dark, best risk ever!! I might do a hair care or styling post sometime, (I used to be a hairstylist for 4 years before I went back to study.)
Hope you all good weekend.
Stay Rebellious

Hi Everyone.
I started back to college last week and I've been crazy busy. I've so many cute outfits to post and catch up on so, hopefully soon the storm will end and I can get myself back In order.
I have no idea where it has came from but I'm having a total obsession with green, maybe it's all the cute flicks of Chloe Norgaard at London Fashion Week on my instagram feed.  I'm also totally diggin on winter forals, I got this cute babydoll esque dress from Topshop just recently but it's been so cold I stuck this lil white mesh crop top from new look down it and Voila! :)
My last photo is also me just playing around with filters again as I had my first class today in Specialised Computers in Fashion, I wish my life was in those colours everyday.|
Hope you enjoy and have a good week.
Speak soon rebels.
Peace & Love

* Take it to the moon, Take it to the stars... *

 







 
 
 
Look one: Rebel T-Shirt: DIY by me / Black Disco Pants:  American Apparel / Shoes: Leopard Print Hi top Vans (available at Office) / Jacket Black Satin Lapel : Zara / Sunglasses: Ray Ban Wayfarer.
 
Look two: Leggings: Last Judgement from Black Milk / Black Lace and Sheer Blouse: Vintage at Rusty Zip / Beanie: I am Vibes / Shoes: UNIF Hellbound Black Leather Platform.
 
Nails: Red Leopard print nail art / Red: OPI Thrill of Brazil / Black & White nail art pens - Models Own x Wah girls.
 
 
 Currently snuggled up in my dressing gown drinking hot chocolate and watching Les Miserables. A very glamorous way to be unglamorous (or maybe I'm just crazy).
I bulked this post out a bit with two outfits as I didn't post as often as I wanted after being ill, and to be honest I'm not even sure I'm very happy with the photos but I hope you enjoy them and maybe find some inspiration.

I wore my first look today, to a meeting today at "Mouth Record Label" (exciting things hopefully to follow). Personally I just think a "Ponytail and Blazer" scream business bitch!! I also managed to snap that blazer for a bargain of £20 in the Zara sale!! My top was also a sneaky DIY this week with some scissors and left over acrylic paint, and will easily double as a dress someday.
Look two was taken before I started work the other night, and I wasn't totally happy with my outfit or the photos but I love my Black Milk Leggings and haven't had a chance to rock my new UNIF boots yet. (so in love and super comfy will post better photos soon)
Lastly I tried out some models own nail art pens this week and I am so in love now, expect Nail Art Galore now!! I really hope to pick up a copy of the Wah Nail Art book and try more designs out.
 
Hope this hasn't been too long and I'll start posting more regularly again!!
Thanks for reading,
Peace & Love xoxo

Vintage Kleenex

 


 


 
 
All items Vintage: Lace & Chiffon Blouse - £10, Oversized red, turquoise and Beaded Pashmina Scarf - £ 5 , Khaki rope and shell belt - £2.50 all from Rusty Zip, Botanic Avenue, Leather pleated skirt - £10 from The Yellow Submarine, Botanic Avenue.
Movie: The Island (2005) starring Scarlett Johansson, Ewan McGregor, Steve Buscemi & Michael Clark Duncan.
 
Hope Everyone's had a good weekend! Unfortunately I've been a sick puppy in bed all weekend. :(
Though the good thing is that I was able to plan some new blog posts and snuggle up with lots of tea, tissues and movies. (Boyfriend and puppy included) :)
Above are a few pics of items I picked up vintage exploring last week with my friend and never got round to sharing. I really love vintage shopping, cause you feel so good when you find that super cute one of piece that would look great with those skinnies or heels your have knocking about, and then you look at the price tag and its a fraction of normal high street and designer prices.
I even know lots of ladies who have been lucky enough to find designer pieces (like chanel) at a fraction of normal retail value. (yes ladies even in Northern Ireland). Anyhoo I can't wait to rock that pashmina super cash and comfy, plus the colours are to die for and that blouse and skirt will probably be lived in (sorry not sorry)!

Also with being super ill I watched this movie "The Island", its actually an older film but I'd never heard of it, even though I
1. LOVE Scarlett Johansson and 2. all me and boyfriend do is watch films. I would totally recommend it, as its got a great concept which I think enough films don't have anymore and Scarlett is just great to look at and envy even if you are bored, haha.
Sorry if I wrote to much, but hopefully once I get over my stupid cold I'll post more pictures, outfit and fashion posts.
 
Thanks again for reading everyone.
Peace & Love
xoxo

Mom Jeans Smell like Teen Spirt

  
 
 

 
 
 
 
 

Shirt: H&M / Mom Jeans: Moto denim at TopShop / Black Lace Bralet: ASOS / Black Studded Leather Jacket: The Ragged Priest / Glitter Catseye Sunglasses: ASOS / Necklace: TopShop / Heels: Zara / Handbag: Chanel / Rings: Various Spanish markets, amber ring: Argento. 
 

Hi everyone! First blog post on here, hope you enjoy.

For this outfit I was really vibe-ing of Saint Laurent's A/W 2013 collection. It has to be my favourite collection so far! It's got the right amount of leather, plaid and grunge with hints of "I'm still a girl" underneath it all. If your into alternative styling I recommend you check it out. Maybe I'll try and do a post of my favourite collection's next and show you what I'm obsessing about this season.
By the way anyone wanting to invest in a red plaid shirt, defiantly check out this H&M purchase its super soft and great for layer or tying round things (obv all the models are doing it) and it so reasonably priced around £14.99 (apologies I can't remember exactly).

Thanks so much for checking this out and feel free to leave a comment below. Until next time.... :)
Peace & Love
