So there I was, in New Look, with 5 minutes until closing, and the situation had turned ugly. I wanted a hair flower to match my new dress but could not find anything decent! My left hand wielded a wonky blue rose that stared pathetically up at me and my right hand was hidden by a mess of feathers and lace that only Lady Gaga would find fashionable! Does this sound familiar to you? I am probably not alone in saying that the selection of quality hair accessories available on the high street is dire! They are over-priced, cheaply made, and hideous; however, help is at hand, in the form of a new online shop!
Tiki Tearaway does more than just hair flowers. The company is ran by two lovely ladies (which I've had the pleasure of meeting) that ooze pin-up gorgeousness! I have one of my own - the
Velma (priced at £6.75) - and I can say that nothing makes you feel so divalicious like a
Tiki Tearaway hair flower!
See, how cute is Velma?! I used mine in a Bettie Page photoshoot with
Essence of Light Photography and it just made me feel so pin-up while I was wearing it! I said earlier that this fabulous company do more than just hair flowers, didn't I? They do little pink clam shells (and double ones too), cherries, birds (so adorable), and cocktail umbrellas. With prices ranging from £4 to £10, who could resist a little bit of
Tiki Tearaway dazzle!
