Moschino Violetta Bunny iPhone Case from Net-A-Porter


Is there anything better than a new, crisp Net-A-Porter box? I love getting little bits off Net-A-Porter because even if they're not particularly expensive they feel it in the sleek black box.

My most recent purchase is the Moschino Violetta iPhone case. It's an adorable bunny with a little white tail and pale pink foot pads and a bow. It comes complete with whiskers and pink nose too.


My honest opinion is that it's absolutely adorable to look at but it's pretty bulky. I use this on weekends when my phone will be safely in my bag away from the hectic work environment of a school and there's no risk of getting biro stains on everything!

It's quite pricey for a phone case at £40 but it is a real Moschino product. I've seen "dupes" of this online for peanuts but they still carry the Moschino label. I don't really agree with putting the designer name on it if it's not the real deal but hey ho, it's down to whoever buys it to deal with that one.

This was available on the run up to Christmas on net-a-porter but it appears to have sold out, sob!
If you find a link to a legit case let me know!

  If you're going to buy your own case please be careful not to get completely ripped off by an ebay or amazon seller.

Disney inspired outfit #2 - Someday my prince will come....


Okay, so Princess Aurora is easily one of the most beautiful princesses (hint : Sleeping BEAUTY) and after a little request from my bestest pal Pip (her blog link is here click click click) I thought Aurora was perfect for this week's Disney inspired because she wears two signature outfits in the film.. or three if you count the blue dress (but I don't!) I haven't copied the Disney dress because as I've said this is inspired by the Disney character rather than an exact copy.

Anyway : firstly the Princess Aurora side of the set -
Rose bracelet is Tiffany & Co. It's not online anymore but it is so perfect for this outfit I couldn't resist it. The pink halter neck is by Unique at Topshop here (click!) and the skater dress is by Boohoo here (click!). I chose two pairs of shoes for these dresses because..well there's no such thing as too many pairs of shoes but also the pink wedges are a little extreme so they might not appeal to everyone.  The pink wedges are, of course, Giuseppe Zanotti and can be found on net-a-porter here (click!) and the nude heels are by Miss Selfridge here (click!). The infinity necklace is Tiffany & Co. and can be found here (click!). The envelope clutch is from Accessorize here, (click!) and I love the colour contrast between the pinky/lilac front and the cream sides.

And now the Briar-Rose side of the set -
The sleeveless white peplum blouse is by Gant here (click!) and the black bralet is on the Rare website here (click!). The grey dipped hem skirt is by Selected here (click!) and the cut-out ballet flats are from Topshop here (click!). After recently throwing away my Topshop Vectras I think these are a lovely, summery replacement! The plain bead rope necklace is by Miss Selfridge and is on the website here (click!) and the bucket bag is by Fiorelli and can be found online at the Debenhams website here (click!).

Finally the two beauty products are by Benefit. Posie tint is a lovely lip and cheek tint in a rosy pink shade and Dandelion is a very light pink blusher with tiny shimmer particles in. Both can be found here (click!) and here (click!).

So, that's how to express your inner Princess Aurora without having to fight with a five year old in the Disney store! Let me know if you buy any of these or have them.. I absolutely love the pink skater dress!
