Let’s Get To Know Each Other | Reader Survey Results

By January 30, 2015 General

I’m so excited to share this post with you! You may remember at the very start of this year, I popped up a little ‘Let’s Get To Know Each Other‘ survey! I was pleasantly surprised when all of your entries came in… there were loads! It’s actually been the most interesting thing I have done and I would push every blogger to get their readers to do the same. So obviously I wanted to share my reader survey results with you! Enjoy… 🙂

Reader Survey Results - Colourful Infographic

87% of you said you read blogs in bed

I kind of knew that you guys would be sloths like me, but I was surprised that it was pretty much all of you, who read blogs in bed. Doctors and sleeping experts (pffft, I’m probably one of them…) would probably be a bit annoyed but hey, I’m cool with it?! What I really want to know now is… what drink is on your bedside table? Hot chocolate, tea, coffee? Let me know!

44% of you prefer Coca-Cola to Pepsi…

…and 41% of you don’t like fizzy drinks at all! Shocking! I’m definitely a Coca-Cola and all round fizzy drink lover. How can you not like it?! Yes okay, dentists don’t advise you to drink it but I’m afraid I just can’t resist. My current fave combo is lemonade and cherry sirop (in France they call it a ‘diabolo cerise’).

Your favourite blog posts on Tolly Dolly Posh Fashion are My Style outfit posts…

YAY! I’m glad. They’re actually my favourite to put together. I’m such a weirdo that I genuinely enjoy spending a good part of an hour fiddling around on Photoshop making the pictures look even more pretty. They’re also a great way for me to store outfit inspiration so we win all round. Lifestyle & DIYs post come in close second… more on this later!

Reader Survey Results - Zoella What Olivia Did - Fashion Bloggers

Your favourite blogger is Zoella…

This was super interesting. I think for bloggers, knowing what other blogs your readers like is super helpful for content ideas. Obviously copying is not what I mean, but taking inspiration from them is always acceptable. There were loads of smaller blogs that I had never heard of, but the most mentioned were some pretty cool girls. Obviously queen of the internet, Zoella, came out on top, but ma’ bae Liv Purvis was pretty close too. (No competition obviously, they’re all beauts). Here’s the list of most mentioned blogs…

Most of you want to see more outfits, lifestyle + DIYs, and blogging advice on my blog…

I also found this question really interesting. So many of you want to see more outfit posts, and to me this is actually a big shock! I thought I was doing plenty, but obviously not! Of course I take into account how much I can physically do, and whether I want to, but I will take this on board. Lifestyle was also a shocker… I don’t do many lifestyle posts so this was interesting. What I want to know (other than DIYs… I’ll also do more of these, watch this space), is what kind of lifestyle posts? Days out? Photography? Let me know!

67% of you would prefer to stay on Earth than move to Mars or the Moon if you could…

Hmph. Boring! Haha, nooo, I understand why… obviously your scared of aliens, right? Ha! I was surprised. A fun question, but I would have liked to have seen a bit more of an adventurous side in my readers. That 8% who’d like to live on Mars are my kind of people. Comment below if you choose Mars… I shall reward you with (virtual) cookies.

So there you go! Pretty cool, huh? I’m definitely going to take this all into account and start putting your feedback to use in the future 🙂 But for now, I’m just gonna’ blow my nose for the 50th thousandth time today (poorly Tolly)… goodbye!

Fast Food Fashion – What’s On The Menu?

By July 17, 2014 Fashion

After a few recent purchases, I have realised that I have a thing for fast food fashion… whether it’s socks, necklaces, badges, the whole lot, it is definitely a trend I’m loving. I decided to put together a little blog post so you can see what is currently ‘on the menu’. I even purchased some props to make this post even more snazzy! I really hope you enjoy 🙂

MAIN COURSE – BURGER SOCKS £1.00 (KYLIE – M&CO.)* – FAST FOOD SOCKS £3.00 (ASOS)

The first plate is of course, some burgers… in the form of two pairs of socks, at super cheap prices… cheap as chips (ha.. ha..)! The first pair are from M&Co, and look super juicy and kitsch. I think they would look awesome with nautical stripes and some cute flats. For those of you who want a more subtle fast food option, these socks from the ASOS Menswear range might be for you! A more robust pair of socks with a retro style cartoon print… I’ve styled this with denim dungarees and they look awesome. I love the yellow and red… *sassy click of fingers* primary perfection.

ON THE SIDE – CHIP SOCKS £1.00 (KYLIE – M&CO.)* – CHIP NECKLACE £12.00 (CHELSEA DOLL)*

You can’t have a burger without a classic side of fries/chips and a good dose of ketchup, so these two pieces are perfect. I think if you were to wear one of the chip socks with one of the burger socks, you would look awesome. This necklace is definitely a favourite of mine as it’s really bold and bright, yet simple all in one. Chelsea Doll have a whole range of #JunkFood accessories, so if you like the look of this one, you’ll love the rest!

*CHEERS* DRINKS – JUNK NECKLACE £18.00 (PUNKY PINS)*

Ahh yes, a use for my Jean Paul Gaultier Coca-Cola can! Obviously a meal wouldn’t be complete without drinks, and for me it’s always got to be a good ol’ Coca-Cola… like I mentioned in my interview for the Mooi En Lief lifestyle magazine *wink wink* This necklace is crazy though, it has burgers, cereal boxes, toothpaste tubes, you name it, it’s on it! I love it nonetheless, and if you want to see how I would style it, click here.

DESSERT – CANDY GLITTER DREAMS NECKLACE £15.00 (I LOVE CRAFTY)

There’s always room for dessert, isn’t there? Well, today I have a beauty… a glittery donut shaped beauty! I decided to treat myself to a piece from the new I Love Crafty Donut Shop collection, and I’m so glad I did! It’s stunning. From the gorgeous sparkles, to the gold little gem, every detail makes it special. Laura sprinkles them with goodness and love, as it arrived in a gorgeous packaging which I shall keep it nice and new in. I honestly cannot wait to style this! Yum!

And there we have it folks! Lots of foody goodness! Let me know in the comments which is your favourite piece? I think mine is either the donut or the chips necklace… they’re both so cool! Next on my list is a Coca-Cola themed piece from Ashish… a girl can dream… a girl can dream…! Have you seen any food related items that I might like? Leave a comment below 🙂

3 Bottle Cap Fashion DIY Ideas

By June 15, 2014 DIY & Lifestyle

Honey, I’m hommeeee! Sorry about the delay, but if you didn’t know already, I’ve been home in the UK for a while again, back tomorrow! I hope you didn’t miss me too much 😉 Shall we get on to the post now? Yeah! It’s just a quick one but I hope you like it nonetheless… I found out about Coca-Cola’s new idea to stop the waste of their bottles, and I suddenly had a light-bulb moment! Why not think of 3 easy ideas which can be made with house hold items… especially bottle types?! Genius… hehe (Images via Pinterest & Coca-Cola)

3 fashion diy ideas bottle caps coca-cola 2nd life

The whole idea, like I said, is to reduce the waste of Coca-Cola bottles. So they’ve come up with a scheme (only in available in Vietnam currently, I believe!) to give out packs of bottle tops with different uses. From spray bottles, pens, sharpeners, to toys, and even lights! I think it’s such a cool idea! I want one… I would 100% pay my very own money for a pack. Would you?! 🙂

My first idea is so simple. Just pop some bleach (or paint) in to an old spray bottle, and spritz at your shorts, top or shoes, and then just add on some details for that whole ‘galaxy’ look. I’ve never been the biggest fan, but I think if you put your own twist on it, you could create something really cool! My favourite version of this is the bleached jumper!

This is probably my favourite idea! Take an empty pepper/salt shaker (I mean, you could do it full if you really wanted that kind of vibe…), fill it up with glitter/sequins, and then glue all over your desired shoes, and sprinkllleeeee! All you have to do after is just touch up any bare patches, but if you get a good glue, this should be really easy and fun to achieve! I think turquoise glitter looks awesome!

This brings back my Carrie Diaries memories *sobs that it has been cancelled*…. and also ART lessons! Fill up an old ketchup bottle (or a few), with coloured paint, and splatter it all over your item of choice! I would recommend putting a small amount in the bottle, which will help it ‘squirt’ rather than just squeeze, to create the splattered effect. Or do it with a fine paint brush to do the Carrie Bradshaw bag… I still haven’t shown you mine! You guys must remind me 😉

What other household items would make awesome DIYs? Let me know in the comments, I would love to know! I shall see you in my next post with some graffiti… say whatttt?!
