Fabulous Festival Memories from Stolen Thunder HQ …

Sunday, October 23rd, 2011

As autumn is officially here, it’s time to look back and reminisce about the best of summer music. This year I made it to three music festivals; Parklife in Manchester was the first. Around 15,000 people headed down to Platt Fields Park; I have never seen so many folk sporting wellington boots and rain coats in Manchester before.

Get your festival fashion working for you…

The water proofs were all needed though as the downpours of rain (and hail) were relentless for the majority of the weekend!! My favourite acts of this two day festival were Two Door Cinema Club, Kelis and Darwin Deez, the performances were incredible. The dance moves in particular provided by Darwin Deez were unreal, those boys certainly know how to entertain and please the crowd!

 

Derbyshire’s top indie festival Y not . .

Y Not Festival the next festival on the agenda; this again was a huge success! All head lining acts on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday were magnificent. I had wanted to see Maxïmo Park for years, and finally my dream came true on the final night of the festival and just as I had imagined they did not disappoint! With my bird’s eye view from my friend’s shoulders I got to see some of my all time favourite songs; Apply Some Pressure, Our Velocity and Books from Boxes. The classic Maxïmo Park hits that I was desperate to see live were all performed and were a MASSIVE hit with the crowd, it was unreal listening to about 5,000 festival goers sing along with Paul Smith, me included!

 

 

Pulp headline Leeds festival . . .

And then there was Pulp! Leeds Festival was my final summer music festival destination; I only went for the one day this being Sunday, fortunately for me I managed to avoid the rain and arrived just in time to get the sunglasses on and enjoy the beautiful day. My time was spent in front of the main stage and inside the Radio One tent, these two stages were where I got to witness Seasick Steve, Two Door Cinema Club (who were again a crowd pleaser with their catchy tunes) Everything Everything, Bombay Bicycle Club, The Strokes and last but certainly not least, Pulp. Watching Jarvis Cocker perform the classics ‘Common People’ and ‘Year 2000’ definitely comes into my top ten moments of all time! An unforgettable time was most certainly had.

Channel our style icons with these two great looks!

Thursday, October 20th, 2011


Taking inspiration from two of our favourite celeb girls Alexa Chung and Fearne Cotton!

We love their casual vintage style and they look even better with a bit of Stolen Thunder jewellery. Mix and match all you best pieces for a striking look, add a slick of black eyeline, scruff your hair up and ta-dah! And after being featured in Company magazine I’m loving our vintage rocks ring.

We’d love to know what your favourite outfit is?

Fashion blogger Cinnamon Eve reveals her favourites…

Monday, October 17th, 2011

NAME: Ines Hunt

AGE: 23

LOCATION: Viseu, Portugal

OCCUPATION: Dentistry Student

WEBSITE:    http://eveasaurus.blogspot.com

TWITTER: www.twitter.com/InesHunt

Q – Hello how are you today?

A – I’m great, thank you! I’ve just spent a couple of days away with my boyfriend before uni starts again, so I feel dandy!

 

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

A – My heart’s divided between the “I love Gin” and the “I love Tea” rings and necklaces! But what I like the most is that you can customise your own jewellery, that’s pretty amazing.

 

Q- What outfit would you style up using Stolen Thunder Jewellery?

A – I’d definitely wear something girly, with a retro twist.

 

Q- Can you describe your blog using 4 words beginning with the letters B.L.O.G?

A – My bog is a Blue-eyed, Looney, Owl-loving Geek’s blog!

Q- What do you enjoy most about blogging?

A – I love meeting new people. The only interest I share with my “real life” friends is teeth, so it’s great to meet people whom I can relate to.

Q- Who is your favourite fashion designer, and why?

A – I’m really into independent designers. I find their pieces to have a little something extra to them. Let’s call it a “soul”.  I also like the work of the lovely people at Mulberry and Luella.

Q- If you could be a dinosaur for the day which one would you choose to be?

A – I LOVE THIS QUESTION! (even though it’s really hard because all dinosaurs are amazing) I guess I would go with a brontosaurus. They’re so big and peaceful. T-Rex would be a good second choice, since I’m always posing as one when people take pictures of me.

Q – What piece of clothing/jewellery could you not live without?

A – I wear my granddad’s pocket watch as a pendant and I love it to bits, but my collection of brogues and I are inseparable.

 

Q – What is your favourite thing about living in Portugal and why?

A – I love how rich our culture is: the food, the people, our history, etc. Also, I love how diverse the country is: we have mountains and beach, freezing cold and boiling hot, forests and fields… My parents and I love to travel around the country, because there’s always some place different and interesting to visit.

 

Q – Where is your favourite place to shop on the high street?

A – I’m going with Topshop, they always have amazing pieces: clothes, jewellery, shoes… everything! I usually really like the designs from their collections, but I also like the brands they sell, such as Love and Rare.

Q – What would you like to ask Stolen Thunder?

A – What was the first piece made by Stolen Thunder?

Our now famous Bird cage necklace

Fashion Blogger Mia Holt reveals her Fashion.Life!

Monday, October 3rd, 2011

NAME: Mia Holt

AGE: 20 years young

LOCATION: Cardiff

OCCUPATION: Journalism Student and Fashion Blogger

WEBSITE: http://fashionbymimi.blogspot.com/

TWITTER: @miaholt

 

Q – Hello how are you today?

A – Hello lovely, I am very good today thanks. Incredibly busy but very happy.

 

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

A – Can I say everything? Haha. Well as a journalist and a blogger, I was inspired by the Typewriter necklace in the Heritage collection. It’s beautiful and would suit my personality so much. It’s so dainty and my love for small and sweet jewellery meant I was instantly drawn to this piece.

Q – How would you describe your blog in 3 words?

A – Wow. Hard. Urm, I would say fun, insightful and relaxed.

Q – What do you most enjoy about blogging?

A – To me, blogging is the perfect way to express your love of something with others. I have always know that I wanted to be a writer, so I started my blog as a way of showing people the type of things that I have written about in the past. I only started it in July this year but I’ve received so much feedback and had the opportunity to interview some amazing people like E4s Dirty Sexy Thing’s model Charlotte de Carle and the designer House of Sunny. I love reading comments from people who are interested in the industry and so I’d probably say that I love the response that I get from doing something I love.

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

A – I think Stolen Thunder jewellery would add a quirky style to any outfit. When I saw the Kite necklace from the original collection, I fell in love with it! It would look so beautiful with a sweet little shift dress and some Chelsea boots. I love mixing feminine chic with a masculine edge so teaming the cute necklace with a dress and some boots would be gorgeous!

Q – If you could choose anyone, past or present to blog, who would it be?

A – It would have to be Audrey Hepburn. She has been my style icon since I was a little girl and I think she was just the most amazing person. Her life and her way of thinking was so delightful. She was such an inspirational person and I try and pride myself on sharing her manners and beliefs.

 

Q- Who is your style icon?

A – I have many, but my favourite would have to be Whitney Port. She always looks amazing and I would die for her wardrobe!

Q – What piece of clothing/jewellery could you not live without?

A – My pearls. I am an avid pearl lover. My mother always says that pearls are a parting gift but my boyfriend bought me some for our first Christmas and we are still together. They are so elegant and instantly add some femininity to any outfit.

Q – What is the best piece of fashion advice you have received?

A – Probably to be unique. It may sound like a cliché but it’s the best advice I’ve ever been give. I think it’s important to find your own personal style. Sometimes, you will make mistakes and look back at an outfit and think “oh my gosh, what on earth” but it means you learn what suits you and your body. If you experiment and try different styles, then eventually, you will learn what suits your shape and your personality.

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

A – My best friend is the most amazing person you’ll ever meet. Her name is Jodie and she always manages to cheer me up. When I was having a down day one day, she sent me this song- Baz Lahrmann- Everybody’s free to wear sunscreen. It’s so inspiration and always makes me happy!

Q – What would you like to ask Stolen Thunder?

A – I would love to know where you guys get your inspiration from to make such gorgeous pieces?

A – ST > From our wonderful home in Derbyshire!

Love Mia xxx
