Luna's Dream Christmas List

It's the most wonderful time of the yeeeear! Ding-dong, ding-dong...let the 3 for 2 from boots-gift-giving-commence!

However may I present you the dream list. Number one is a utterly scrumpicous Ted Baker Woodland Print dress - I'd team this with some vintage chelsea boots, a huge fedora and my trusty fur jacket, but it would equally make an excellent impress-the-future-in-laws outfit a la Kate Middleton style.

Next is a classic leather skirt from Oasis, I'm in my mid 20's now and I really need to start investing in staple pieces and leather is a real good place to start.

The Black fringe bag from Primark, simply because you cannot possibly have too many Black Fringe bags from Primark

The Topshop feather capelet  because let's face it one must goth it up every now and again. Plus this item could make even the drabbest of dresses uber cool.

Once again Ted Baker  Ted Baker Full Skirt Dress   makes an appearance in my wish list who they have upped their game this season! Such a nod to the sixties (the best decade for fashion that ever was - don't argue because I'm right). So well structured, prefect for the office, and the skater style skirt is flattering on all.

Finally the Pink Boucle Dress from Primark. I know what your thinking it's dress is very very Lark, but I love it. It's so JackieO meets Jean Shrimpton. When I look at it I think beehives, winged eyeliner, and ridiculously long falsies. This dress will be mine, I repeat will be...MINE.

The Charity Shop Score

This Bag is actually Lark's though it should be mine! Oh how I've begged for it, but I am constantly being refused *sigh*
The bag just looks so expensive at first glance it could be classic Hermes, Louis Vuitton, possibly Gucci. In fact, apart from the faded "made in Italy"  label inside the lining the bag manufacturer remains a mystery.

Love and Light

It's A Mad World


Since its arrival on our screens Mad Men has played an instrumental role in the resurgence of interest around 1960's fashion. Although this golden era of design, never went out of style at Luna-Lark mansions ( ever). The star of the show in our eyes, is the foxy Joan Harris played by the wonderful Christina Hendricks. Oh how we love this flame haired doll. Now Christina is famous for her curves, and the one thing about this style is that it flatters the more curvaceous lady.  Yes I'm gonna say it. If your 'FAT' and yes I used the F word, this is a style for you, as its gonna make your curves say 'Hello Boys and Girls' Love and Light from Lark  x

Hi Luna-Larkers



Luna: What have I let myself in for. Lark and I have completely different tastes and argue about absolutely everything! I would describe Lark as a Plus size Barbie sponsored by Disney and Hello Kitty.#

Shopping with her can be nightmare.On the plus side, if lost Lark can generally be found near something pink and bedazzled, therefore there's no need to send out a search party.  But it has to be said that when she gets it right - boy! does she get-it-right in her own Larky way.


Lark: Hi Guys, allow me to introduce my sister Luna. Luna would probably describe herself as a Beatnik Wednesday Addams.

 However to me - Luna is a real style chameleon, part modern day goth, sometimes high fashion, sometimes sixties babe. As much as she will deny it, for the most part she is just an undercover hipster. In short, she simply loves fashion.

Luna and I have been bickering since birth, and we have major arguments over stupid stuff, that can only be solved by google. Im usually right, by the way !

Why not follow us on twitter , we are @lunalark7

Let the tantrums begin.....

Ok after only two and half hours we have a had our first argument about the logo. Though we both agreed on a birdcage-esque motif, once again our clash of taste rears it's ugly head. What started off as light banter - one calling the other tacky, the other a tim burton wannabe, ended up with both of us having dinner in silence. So to end arguements we're leaving it to the public. What's your choice?
