Vegan Fascinator from Warrillow Studio

Last weekend, Matt and I attended the wedding of one of his school friends at a beautiful church in London. It was the first wedding I’ve been to as an adult and I was so excited about every aspect of it, including piecing together my outfit. I wore a beautiful dress from Ted Baker, paired with some simple M&S shoes and my favourite part of the outfit: an absolutely stunning custom made fascinator from Warrillow Studio.

Warrillow Studio is a completely vegan and cruelty-free millinery that produces handcrafted vegan hats, fascinators, and headpieces; and I am super excited to be able to tell you guys about my experience with them, as it makes me so happy to discover awesome, vegan brands and of course share the ones I love with you all.

A few months ago, the lovely Rachel from Warrillow Studio reached out offering to create a custom headpiece for me. As soon as I browsed her website, I knew I wanted to work together, as not only did her brand ethics resonate with me, but I also fell in love with the beautiful, unique pieces she creates and knew I would absolutely love to have one.

As I had the wedding coming up, I thought a fascinator would be perfect, so I sent Rachel a photo of my dress and listed a couple of my favourite pieces from her website (Sarah Jane and Megan), then she came up with this completely unique piece made just for me!

It was super exciting receiving a surprise creation (it kinda felt like Christmas) and I was so happy to open the incredibly beautiful packaging and find such a stunning piece inside!

The extremely talented Rachel captured my style so perfectly and I love that she created the piece using three complimentary colours, as it means I can pair it with a variety of dresses for future events.

I received so many lovely compliments at the wedding about the fascinator and I cannot wait to wear it to all of the weddings we have coming up next year!

If you’d like to buy one of Rachel’s pieces for yourself, head to warrillowstudio.com and browse the collection; alternatively, if you’d like a custom piece, I’m sure Rachel would love to hear from you so definitely get in touch via her website. I’d also love to see photos of any pieces you guys order so be sure to send me a picture.

If you’d like to see how I did my hair and makeup for the wedding and of course find out more about my beautiful Warrillow Fascinator, I filmed a Get Ready With Me For A Wedding video which you can watch on my youtube channel here:

Now, I’m just gonna leave you guys with this picture of Kitty photobombing my shot of the fascinator; she looks just as happy about it as I am!!

Vegan Cheese at Pizza Express!

Guys, something extremely exciting has happened: Pizza Express has launched a vegan cheese and it is delicious!

So as I’m sure you all know, Pizza Express has had an amazing cheeseless vegan pizza – the Pianta – for a while now, and their dough balls are easily veganisable by switching out the garlic butter for garlic oil.

However, with the new vegan cheese, there are now a tonne more vegan options and I couldn’t be more excited! Matt and I headed to Pizza Express to try it out last week, and it’s safe to say we are obsessed.

To start, we of course ordered the dough balls with garlic oil, and also decided to go rogue and order the garlic bread with vegan cheese and oil instead of butter. WHAT. A. GREAT. IDEA. It was one of the yummiest things I have ever eaten! Garlic bread with cheese used to be my favourite dish at Pizza Express (sometimes I would just order 2 or 3 of them instead of a pizza!!!), so I’m beyond happy that I can now enjoy a vegan version.

For main, I ordered a vegan cheese margarita with mushrooms and red onions, whilst Matt went for a vegan cheese margarita and they were both delicious. I’ve always loved the pizza express bases and their new vegan cheese is awesome, so I am definitely a fan!

Whilst the Pianta is still my favourite pizza, it’s so nice to now have the option of ordering a cheesy pizza; and one thing’s for sure, I will definitely be having the cheesy garlic bread every time I visit!
