Q – Hello how are you today?

A – I’m really good, I bought some new shoes. They were £5 from a charity shop, therefore I am very happy.

Q- What is your favourite piece from Stolen Thunder’s handmade jewellery current collection?

A – Probably the nautical stud earrings, there so cute! I have a pair myself and I’m wearing them at the moment!

I also really like the anchor necklace and the pardon my French brooch!

Oh and the ‘I Love Tea’ ring and necklace, because I do love tea very much so.

I’d also like to mention that the jewellery smells really nice, kinda like the 3D workshop at my college!

Q – What outfit would you style up using Stolen Thunder Jewellery? (Stolen Thunder jewellery / clothing / shoes etc!)

A – Well, I would probably wear the extremely worn brown vintage leather shoes I bought today, with a floral or brown/ green skirt, maybe even in velvet, thick cotton tights and either a vintage jumper or blouse and the braided leather bracelet with tassels.

Infact, I decided to make something on polyvore to show it a bit better…

Q – Where is your favourite boutique, and what is it called?

A – I’m not sure if Urban Outfitters is considered a boutique.. I don’t really shop at any boutiques, mostly just charity shops.. I should really start shopping at more places haha!

Q – If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be and why?

A – Maybe London, because of all the people there and the places.. and everything moves really fast and you have to keep up with it. It would probably give me some motivation.

Q – Who is your style icon?

A – I don’t really have a style icon… I don’t really find celebrities very inspiring clothes-wise. I guess I get inspiration from other fashion bloggers and people that walk past me when I’m out and about, so anyone really, if they happen to be wearing something I like I always remember it.

Q – What are your wardrobe essentials?

A – Tights, you can never have too many pairs of tights… and a black blazer, because they go with everything.

Q – How many pairs of shoes do you own?

A – Haha I’m not sure, probably around 30, I think, I just tried to count them all in my head because there all in different places in the house.

Q – If you’ve had a bad day what song will make you smile again?

A – All kinds of time – Fountains of Wayne.. I think they use the instrumental bit at the end of Devil Wears Prada :D Actually, I’ve changed my mind… I think Mexican Wine by Fountains of Wayne would be better!

Q – Send us a picture from your day – this can be the view from your window, your pet, your lunch! Please label photo “MY DAY” and send with this piece. Please give us a description below!

These are my fab new charity shop shoes! Bought today!

Q – What would you like to ask Stolen Thunder?

A – How long does it take to make one of your necklaces?

Hmmm! Well we hand sketch different ideas and tweak and change them until we feel they are just right, then we cut them from wood or whatever we are using and hand assemble them – so they making bit doesn’t take too long but the bit before where we have the seed of an idea to grow can take months!
