Feminist Wishlist

A fellow blogger babe Rhiân did one of these a while back on her blog and I’ve been wanting to make my own but wasn’t quite sure if it would interest people. Having put a poll out on Twitter in the New Year asking what content you guys wanted, feminism had a majority vote (alongside mental health and self care stuff). I’ve now got a posting schedule that reflects the results of that poll but you can always leave me comments with what content you want to see more of and I’ll see what I can do!

These are a few picks from my fave sites that would be perfect for any feminist.

 

Feminist Wishlist (1)

1 |’Try To Love Yourself As Much As You Love Beyoncé’ tee by Liana Spiro on RedBubble

I do love Beyoncé and I should love myself more so this is a personal must-have! The design is so cute and pretty.

2| ‘You are Lisa Simpson’ pillow by Expo on Studio6

This is from Mr Bergstrom’s note to Lisa in the episode ‘Lisa’s Substitute’. It is supposed to remind Lisa that if she ever feels alone or not good enough, she is all she needs. Such a positive message and Lisa is a feminist icon of TV.

3| ‘I Think Your Sexist Jokes Are Boring’ tote bag from Feminist Apparel

This tote bag is not only practical but has a point! I have said this to so many people in my life.

4| ‘Not Your Bae’ pin from Punky Pins

I love Punky Pins and will be placing my first order soon to decorate a blazer of mine. There are so many cute designs but this one was my feminist fave.

5| Color Her : Mix n’ Match Coloring Book by Iris Glaser & Katrin Leblond from Amazon

A coloring book filled with women of all shapes, ethnicities and ages. Accurate representation and you have free reign with what beautiful colours you use – yay!

6| ‘She Needed A Hero So That’s What She Became’ mug from MiniGeekBoutiqueUK on Etsy

This isn’t necessary only for feminists. This is a sweet gift for any strong woman or girl in your life as a reminder that she has overcome so much.

7| ‘Feminist Killjoy’ glitter banners from UnicornParadeShop on Etsy

These are adorable but I don’t have anywhere to put them in my house at the moment. Perhaps an office when we move? Plenty of cute banners in this Etsy store.

birthday wishlists: clothing

So it’s just over a week until my birthday (27th September) and although I’ve already given these ideas to my friends and family, I wanted to post a few of my wishlists to share with you guys. First up and most importantly, clothing!

birthday wishlists: clothing


Tops

I’ve asked for quite a few tops this year because most of mine either don’t fit or won’t be warm enough as the cold weather sets in. You’ll notice I’ve chosen some functional, comfy loose bits, a couple of cute pop culture tees and some jumpers for layering up. 

 Neuron Vest Dress – £12.95
disturbia.co.uk

Silver Fine Knit Metallic  – £14.99
newlook.com

Black Lace-Up Sides Sweater – £14.99
newlook.com

Black Drop Hem 3/4 Sleeve – £1o.99
selectfashion.co.uk

Purple Crochet Lace Vest  – £12.99
selectfashion.co.uk


Leggings

You will never catch me in trousers or jeans and I’m rarely brave enough to bare my legs which is why I live in leggings! I always have plenty of plain black cheap ones from Select or Primark in my drawer but each season, I love getting a few pairs with a cool print or some nice detail. Some of these look really warm too!

 

Cupcake Cult Star Print – £12.99
sohos.co.uk

Banned Hearts and Swallows Print  – £20.24
amazon.co.uk

Urban Classics Dark Grey Acid Wash -£14.99
attitudeclothing.co.uk

Bottoms

As much as I love my leggings, I can’t wear them without something to cover my bum. Whilst some of my tops might be long enough, it’s also nice to have some statement skirts/shorts to accompany the more plain pairs or perhaps with some tights.

I’ve chosen quite a lot of acid wash and tie-dye bits in this list because I love how I can incorporate some colour into my look with these prints, whilst still keeping an alternative edge on things.

 

Denim Acid Wash Shorts – £19.99
darksideclothing.com

Monochrome Tartan Miniskirt – £8.99
selectfashion.co.uk

 

I have no idea if I will be lucky enough to get any of these items but I’m sure I’ll do a lookbook post with anything that I do! Keep your eyes peeled for my next birthday wishlist coming up in a few days…

drag on a dime: jujubee

This is the second post in my series that honours the queens of #DragRace – you can see the Adore Delano style board here. This will be a regular feature on the blog because finding drag dupes has been good fun. I’ve vowed that the looks will always be as close to the outfits as possible, without costing more than £20 per piece!

| dress | leggings | heels | headband |

This outfit screams glamour and that’s one of the reasons that I love Jujubee. The only staple item that you would need to complete the look is a black elasticated waist belt and they’re cheap as chips! Unfortunately, the picture quality wouldn’t let me zoom in enough to examine the cuff bracelet she’s wearing, but I think there are plenty of jewellery items that would work just as well.

Do you like or own any of the items in this outfit?

drag on a dime: adore delano

As many of you know, I love all things #DragRace and so I decided that a fun feature for the blog (and for me to research) would be creating copycat style boards based on off- stage outfits of some of my favourite drag queens.

I am also a spendthrift shopper and so I have vowed that these looks will be as close to the outfits as possible, but without costing more than £20 per piece!

Key items for this outfit were the necklace and the leggings. I am always on the lookout for small businesses and creative crafty types to support, and I love the idea of having something handmade for me. The necklace, I decided, could easily be made from this cool pixel bead art from shopgrotesque on Etsy.  The leggings I have chosen similar from Leaf Fairy over at Fairy Footprints, who I know very well and I know makes highly- commended custom fashions and accessories, including sparkly wings!

wishlist: Adventure Time

I am a huge fan of Adventure Time and I have been since my best friend Emily showed it to me a couple of years ago. I love the layers of jokes and themes, which mean that the programme appeals to all audiences, as a fart joke will make a small child laugh, just as much as an existential crisis will make a twenty-something laugh!

It’s hard to choose a few bits that I really want, as there’s so much AT merch out there – official and unofficial – but I have thrown a few bits that we have in our house, some bought by us, some bought by friends and family, in with some cute wardrobe items for Spring/Summer.

This wishlist is also a Pinterest board.
