Mini Post: Poodles in Paris - Clumsy Kate tee

I am back with another exciting installment on the blog - this adorable little poodle tee from Clumsy Kate. This company is but a mere 15 miles away from where I live and the owner, Kate (who is a self-proclaimed clumsy being!), designs and creates fun kitsch vintage and retro-inspired bits and bobs. There are a selection of tees including a tipsy pink elephant and a mexican pinata! She also has various other things to offer such as head scarves, purses, glasses case, jewellery and mugs.

'Up To No Good' - Mischief Made Tees

Mischief Made is a company based in California, USA and is owned by the ever-so-lovely Yuri who is originally from Tokyo, Japan. She designed all the lovely t-shirts featured herself and has a great selection available in her Etsy shop. The designs have the feel of a mix of classic vintage and traditional tattoos - two things which I love!

Marine Madness - Banjo & Cake

My collaboration with Banjo & Cake was something a little different to what I have done before as I wanted to feature their 'Sea Garden' collection, with both a skirt and...a bikini! These together made an adorable little three piece as they are matching prints. Banjo & Cake are a company very much inspired by the rockabilly, pinup and tattoo scene as noted with their polka dot prints, kitsch patches and juicy cherries! I wanted to choose a bikini because they are just so darn cute! Below are the two bikinis available to purchase from Too Fast.
