Pretty Little Things: Bow and Crossbones

I came across Bow and Crossbones while the Mafiettes and I were searching for bamboo bangles. Not only did we find the best selection of bamboo bangles at Bow and Crossbones, but we also found, much to our delight, bamboo hooped earrings! They really do have an amazing selection of tiki jewellery, all really authentic in style and so much fun to wear. They have such great fruit jewellery as well like this Carmen necklace...I love a bit of tutti frutti.

When we saw the lovely Cam of Bow and Crossbones at Judy's Affordable Vintage Fair recently, she showed us her new collection of beautiful pieces. I immediately got very excited about the Reproduction 1950s Confetti leaf pieces. I think you'll agree they look very authentic. They also feel very solid which I think is very important when buying any costume jewellery. Whaddayathink....?

I even matched my nail varnish to the jewellery!

Here is the whole set...

I also think that this aqua and daisy leaves necklace is extremely pretty...

As is this reproduction lucite green leaf design...

Most pieces have matching items, and you can even buy the whole sets of earrings, necklace and bracelets for some designs. They make perfect presents for someone else, or yourself! And with Valentines day around the corner, time to start hinting methinks!

I have to say a massive thank you once again for the talents of Mr Leatherby and his photographic skills. He really has mastered the art of the vintage style portrait and I am very lucky to be at the end of his lens so often!

My gorgeous blouse is from Heyday!
