Neon Zebras

Sourpuss Haul Time!!!! My addiction to the amazing prints and super comfortable fit that is Sourpuss Clothing continues as I add more and more amazing pieces to my wardrobe.

This season I'm print crazy!!! Be it bright zebra, classic leopard or kooky horror themed items I can't get enough of the amazing and adorable designs coming out of this power house of a design team.


Now there is nothing I love more that a spooky themed print and the Undead dress and jacket combo has me swooning. Covered in vampires, coffins and all kinds of adorable creepy things this amazing print designed by Sol Rack is printed on the smoothest and softest poly spandex blend.



Featuring an off the shoulder designs, long sleeves and a perfectly fitted skater style waist and skirt. I'm wearing every item in this post in an XXL and each fit perfectly. The print pairs perfectly with the matching cropped bomber jacket and I love how they combine to be an epic Undead themed outfit.

Usually, I'm not a fan of off the shoulder dresses but Sourpuss have created a super flattering style with this longer sleeve and I can't wait to pair it with lots more skirts with braces, etc. The length is perfect as it's not a mini but still short enough to show off your pins.



The Bomber, which is no longer safe in my home as my husband wants to steal and wear it, fits like an absolute dream for a curvy figure. It hits me perfectly fitted at my natural waist and gives me room for the twins and can be worn buttoned up or as show with the matching print popping through.




One dress two awesome ways. Last year I feel absolutely in love with the SP Zebra Essential Vests and snapped one up in green. The fit was perfect for my curves, and the stretchy fabric can accommodate lots of different bust sizes.

So when new colours ways were released this year the only issue I had when ordering was which do I need - if not all of them! My choice was HOT PINK I'm always being told that I can rock pink so I've bitten the bullet and gone for this amazingly strong colour.


It's absolutely perfect!! I did not think it was possible to love a vest more than my first green version but this colour in zebra print is divine. Paired with the off the shoulder dress it creates a wild pattern clash that works so well. I often wear off the shoulder tops and frocks with braced skirts etc. as I love the look it creates.

In classic Teer Wayde style I needed to add lots of pins to my vest and we are spoilt for choice when it comes to both at Sourpuss. It's so easy to customize your battle jacket and make it true to your taste. I've gone with some new and classic pinup themed images plus a mix of horror/punk themes - that's me in a nutshell really.


SOURPUSS F*CK YEAH KNIT GLOVES - $5.00 (sale price)

They year SP also released funky AF gloves! Super warm, tough and have lots of grip. I love being able to share my love for the F-word with my accessories.




As a very proud Sunglasses addict, I was over the moon when I found out SP have started making their own specs!As a very proud Sunglasses addict, I was over the moon when I found out SP have started making their own specs! Such a cute and traditional style with a smaller frame to give that more psycho, rocker edge. The extra little bit of bling also makes these babies pop and it's clear I'll be needed to purchase every single version.



Now for the bright and bold green leopard - you were warned that I was all about colour in this review! What's not to love about a perfectly created, dark green faux leopard print purse with all the trimmings?

Featuring studded vinyl detail, a glossy vinyl strap, pockets and a detachable cross-body strap. This purse is both stunning and perfect for day to day use. The leopard fabric is also able to accommodate iron on patches so if you feel the need to customize then go crazy! I just adore this print and really want to add the larger size in purple or red to my collection.

 




I don't know how this has taken so long, but this is my first raglan tee from Sourpuss! 50% of my wardrobe is raglans, yet I've never owned one for SP until this moment.

This tee is amazing! Fitted in all the right places, perfect logo placement and full of creepy vibes. The XXL fits my bust without any image morphing issues and the rounded hem really makes this style flattering on a curvy shape. Now that I know exactly how this style fits I'll be ordering every single version.



I've paired thee with my BlackMilk Cuffed Pants in blue plaid which are to die for! I'll be doing a full review of these pants next week and another piece in PVC but I wanted to show the raglan with something more casual and comfy. These pants are so relaxed, soft and smooth I want to live in them! But for now I must share a rump shot as they are amazing.




Lastly is one of my most lusted after pieces in 2019 - the Leopard Moto. As a girl that lives in moto jackets I'm always on the hunt for new colours, fabrics and prints. SP have created three amazing versions of this classic rock shape and I snapped up the leopard as soon as it was released.


With the success of the vests, I knew the XXL would fit perfectly as the have the same fabric but this piece is lined in a stretchy silky fabric. The fit is PERFECT!! The print - amazing! I'm honestly so in love with this piece and I can't wait to style it all year round.



Fit wise there is room to layer a thin top or dress but if you are looking to pair it with jumpers a size up would be advised. The custom SP hardware, metal zips and all the moto features we adore are what make this piece shine. If leopard is not your style then you'll be able to pick this jacket up in classic black or the what's on my current lust list the black and white stripe.
Now I need to get my hands on lots more pins and patches for this moto and find the perfect back patch from all my old band tees.I don't know how this has taken so long, but this is my first raglan tee from Sourpuss! 50% of my wardrobe is raglans, yet I've never owned one for SP until this moment.



This tee is amazing! Fitted in all the right places, perfect logo placement and full of creepy vibes. The XXL fits my bust without any image morphing issues and the rounded hem really makes this style flattering on a curvy shape. Now that I know exactly how this style fits I'll be ordering every single version.


Inspired by every single piece in this post I've already got another lust list planned.


More bold prints, colours and creepy pieces that really call to me. I'm also needing the dagger purse in my world as my current day to day purse is not really my style. 

You can find these and more via the SP section of the website.

Mean Girls Club

If you are a fan and an avid collector of Vixen by Micheline Pitt styles you'll know all about the amazing collaboration between Vixe and Ryan Heshka. The Mean Girls collection takes the amazingly tuff and sassy women of Ryan's world and brings them into reality. The most anticipated and loved release of 2019!



Inspired by the cult classic comic books created by Ryan Heshka, who truly turns the image of the stereotypical 50’s female upside down and inside out to give a new, sassy and defiant voice to these ladies of leisure. This collection features pieces that have Ryan Heshka’s original art on classic Vixen bodies that are under our collab label “Mean Girls Club x Vixen” and we also featured standard “Vixen by Micheline Pitt” staples to be paired with these pieces.

 
This collection spoke to me so strongly that I needed to order as many pieces as possible. Sticking with tried and tested styles and testing some new season pieces which perfectly pair with the collab! This review is full of my favourite things - faux leather, spiderwebs, letterman jackets and polka dots. So sit back and be prepared for an influx of images!
 
 
 
When a Vixen branded Letterman Jacket was first mentioned I was first to put up my hands and say OH HELL YES! So on the day that preorders popped up I instantly jumped on line to secure my own limited edition jacket.

Unusually a letterman can be a bit bulky or shapeless, but Micheline has created a figure hugging cropped style that flatters your natural waist. A stunning black and white traditional style with Vixen on the front and a big white skull and cross bones on the back. Featuring all of the comforts, you've come to know and love from this style of jacket - the fleace inside the is amazingly soft and warm!
 


I'm wearing the L/XL and the fit is spot on. I originally went to order the 2XL size but after hearing how everyone was sizing down for a more tight and figure flattering fit I opted for one size smaller and I'm loving the results. It hits me right at my waistline and can be worn buttoned up or open. This piece sold like hotcakes on first release so be sure to snap yours up while stocks last.
 
 


I received this piece before any of the other items arrived but I already had the vision of pairing the jacket with the absolutely amazing Maneater Dress. A style that's pure magic for your figure the Maneater is a stunning, stretchy and perfect swing style dress. Covered in a polka dot print and made from stretchy bengaline fabric this dress really hugs you in all of the right places creating a perfect hour glass shape.

The bodice and bust are fully lined which gives the dress a molded almost built in bra style section. I've worn this with or without a bra, and the lift is gravity defying.
 


Size wise I stuck to my usual 2XL as I heard that the fit on this fabric was not as stretchy as the red or pink polka dot versions. I'm glad I did as it fits like a dream. I love the epically huge pockets, think adjustable straps and those bust cups. It pairs perfectly with my letterman and the matching polka dot belt adds that extra little bit of waist shaping. I snapped up this piece off local stockiest Natasha Marie Clothing, my go to Aussie seller for Vixen!


I'm absolutely smitten with the fit of this dress and will need to order both the red and pink versions. I'll be sizing down for both of those colours as I know they are super stretchy.
 
 

 
When I shop at Vixen I tend to fall in love with the fit or cut of an item. The 3/4 sleeve t'shirts are one of my stand out favourites so when the Pinky Spider version was released it was always going t0 be on my lust list.
 
Featuring the amazing Pinky Spider in her web this amazingly soft and stretchy top fits perfectly but having 3 in my collection already I knew it would be a hit. I'm wearing the XL and it allows room for me move freely, has lots of bust room while keeping the print in tact. The placement of the print is also spot on as it' hits right at the bust and really pops.
 

 

I've paired the with the brilliant Bad Girl Vegan Circle Skirt. I've never had any luck when it comes to real or faux leather skirts as my hips tend to make them look odd or they are just poorly tailored.
 
 
But my prayers have finally been answered and I now own the perfect vegan leather circle skirt! Super soft, butter faux leather with bold pink lining in the traditional circle skirt style. I'm wearing a 2XL and the fit is perfect for my waist as it has a little give and a bold silver metal zip that creates a really perfect waist shape. This is just the first set of images of this amazing piece as I've used it with two more tops throughout this post. I'll be sure to go into more detail about different sections as this preview progresses.
 


 
Who knew a simple spider web border could have so much impact. The Mantrap Spiderweb tops are super cute tees that can be worn on or off the shoulder. A classically flattering cut with a bold spider web print on the neckline. So cute, so sleek and so good for boobies! 
 
 
 


I'm wearing the XL, and I adore the fit. It's not too tight and the optional on or off the shoulder options for styling makes this two styles for the price of one. I went for classic black and white but you can also pick this up in grey with pink or white with black. I'm thinking of ordering 2 more in white so I can dye them orange or green. 


 
I can't wait for the weather to warm up again so I can pair this style with my LFEN spider brooch but for now I'll be sure to wear my Vixen Moto with it. Obviously it pairs perfectly with my faux leather skirt, so any form of moto will make it shine.
 
 
 
Lastly, what might just be my all time favourite outfit. I've always been a sucker for faux leather garments but when I saw the shots of these two pieces paired together I feel hard. The Babydoll Crop and Circle skirt combine to create one of the most flattering, sexy and boobtasic 'dresses' I've ever seen. But due to it being two unique items it's even better as you can style them with other printed pieces from Vixen. 
 
 


This combination is SEX ON A STICK! So flattering, so soft and amazingly tailored. Each design aspect of these pieces create amazing shape and really make your assets pop. I'm wearing the baby Doll Vegan crop top in a 2XL (same size as the skirt) and the fit is spot on. I can wear this style without a bra, and I'm comfortable and covered. The babydoll style top and dresses have been super popular due to the epic boobage and that amazing flowing sleeve. 
 


 
The perfect style sleeve if you don't like showing off too much upper arm this skims over the top of your upper arms and flows so beautifully. This is actually my first babydoll pieces, and I'm that smitten with the sleeves I'm going back and ordering the pink and black spider web dress and any future designs that come out with this design.
 

 

I can't get over the fit and tailoring of both of these pieces. They mold to my shape and really make my curves pop. The faux leather has texture and drapes perfectly while still looking bad ass! The movement in the skirt is also rather magical, and you'll be twirling like crazy the first time you wear it!
 
 




I've paired each look with the CELESTE-09 Black Glitter/Black Glitter from Shoe Me and I love how comfy and yet high these open toe chunky heels are. I'm usually more comfortable shooting with a cute closed toe mary jane or something styled like that but I wanted to match my toes and finger nails with hot pink polish.

Size wise these are perfect in a 10US and amazingly comfortable. You can wear these all day or night and walk/dance with absolute ease. I need to snap up the gold and silver glitter asap as I'll be wearing these all summer long. Hopefully the new seasons bring more bright glitter shades as well as these in pink or red would be perfection.

Thick Thighs Save Lives!

All my adult life I've been searching for a thigh high boot that will fit easily over my rather chunky upper legs. I'm blessed with rather standard calves but my thighs have always been rather bigger and when it comes to thigh high boots I've never had a pair that work. I've tried lace ups, 'sock' styles and standard fit boots but nothing has really for me until now.

I noticed while window shopping the Boot section of Shoe Me for new pieces to add to my winter collection, that some boot names ended with an X. If you see this letter then this style will be perfect for a plus size or muscular calf. With this new info I popped online and ordered a pair my first pair of super thigh high boots!!



 
When I stumbled across the Diva-3006X boot in faux leather I feel in love with the matte PU, silver hard ware and that pirate vibe. I was not 100% they would fit but with some help from customer service and an extremely helpful review via the product page I was confident enough that these would work. I'm a standard size 18AU with curves, thick thighs and these babies ROCK!
 
I don't think I've ever been so keen to try any shoe on as much as these boots and I instantly slipped into them when they arrived. They easily slip on without any issues and come up to my mid/lower thigh. The top section is super roomy and I have absolutely no issues! They could even be a little too roomy but as I'll be wearing these with super warm stockings and jeans over winter I'm not really bothered by that.


 
I did however get the wrong size! Good work Teer! These are US11 and they actually are very roomy in the foot so a 10 would have been a more spot on fit. I'm never 100% sure with fit when it comes to different brands but I now know and will remember to size down in this specific style of Fantisma Boot.
 
This is easily fixed this winter though buy wearing super thick socks and I'm 100% on board with that as it keeps me warm and still looking awesome.
 

 
These boots have a really sleep toe, 5 inch heel and silver buckles on the ankle and top section. These little details make the boots really shine and I'm excited to style them all winter long. I've already worn them to a gig and they looked amazing paired with stockings and a Dollbaby dress. So expect to see these pop up in many outfit posts because they match with EVERYTHING!



 
Now to pop online once again and order one more pair! Maybe lace ups this time? I'm going boot crazy and I need to order everything!

Cutie With the Booty

Erstwilder have teamed up with one of my absolute favourite illustrators to create an adorable and body positive new range.

Mel Stringer an Australian Artist based in the US of A creates the most amazing, super cute, art and accessories featuring curvy babes and lots of body positive themes! I stumbled across her work originally a few years back on Instagram and I instantly wanted to be one of her drawings!


Fast forward to May 2019 and Mel has teamed up with the brilliant crew at Erstwilder to create a body loving collection that I can't get enough off. Featuring some of the cutest, curviest and sweetest little ladies,

Here are my 3 absolute faves from the Erstwilder x Mel Stringer Love Yourself Collection!


Cute Butt Club  - $39.95

I absolutely love the idea of the Cute Butt Club!! Tooshies are adorable be it on any gender and this Brooch celebrates the girls that have a little more junk in the trunk!
 


Available in two shades light and dark, this adorable little lass is both sassy and sweet and has the cutest butt EVER! She's my new inspo for those days when I'm not feeling 100% sassy.



Mel's original artwork has translated so well into the amazing layer style brooches of Erstwilder and the colour choices, different textures etc. really make these lasses pop. I've ever seen.


The pale pink underwear with Cute Butt written on the rear make this piece way too cute. Can I get a pair of these cute butt knickers please? Just a little selfie of me wearing it today!

 

Bee Yourself  - $39.95

I swear if you make anything even remotely bee related I'll buy it. I have no idea where, how or why the obsession started but it's here and the Bee Yourself brooch is fueling it!

 

 


I'm getting Blind Melon no rain video vibes from this super sweet honey bee themed lass and I just adore her styling, retro Bettie bangs and those antennae.

 


I'm that smitten with this whole look that I want to create it and shot it or maybe it would be a great Halloween costume?

 


Lastly, we have another bootylicious girl but the Sweet Marguerite is in necklace form posed on a big bold flower. Pooping that adorable toosh out, looking super sweet and perfectly placed! I love being able to pair both a brooch and a necklace together to really embrace the positive vibes.

 

Be it a good body day or a bad one these adorable girls will help get your positivity up! These are merely a small section of the designs so be sure to pop over to Erstwilder and snap up these and many more. You can also find more close ups, studio shots etc of each piece for even more details.
