Barbie Writes

Much as I like to spread the love, that isn’t what this post is about, so apologies if you were hoping for some soul searching and prayers for world peace. Peace Love Happiness is the brainchild of celebrity stylist extraordinaire Bronagh Meere. Having previously worked at Heat magazine, dished out fashion advice at Truffle Shuffle and dressed everyone from Tulisa Contostavlos to Lady Gaga, Bronagh launched her latest business venture in late 2011. Online store Peace Love Happiness offers vintage goodies and one-off wardrobe wonders that you simply won’t find anywhere else.

Happy Beads are one of Bronagh’s signature products. These cute bracelets are all handmade with love, available in three different styles and any colour combination you so desire. Although there are certain patterns displayed for sale online, bespoke designs are also available for a completely unique look. My favourite style is the Russian Doll Beads (£35). Everything about them makes me smile, from the teeny weeny Russian dolly herself, to the entertaining vodka-based story that graces her item description. Cause everybody knows Russians love vodka!

Scarf vests are another creation by Bronagh, where vintage silk scarves have been transformed into gorgeous patterned tops, perfect for day or night. I love the turquoise vest (£55) which is currently on the site, it’ll look great as part of spring’s nautical trend, and will seriously set off a summer tan.

As well as fabulous handmade products, Peace Love Happiness has a great vintage section with some amazing designer steals. I’m lusting after this original Gianni Versace Hollywood print jacket (£200), we all know Hollywood infected my brain a long time ago dolls!

I don’t know about peace, but Bronagh’s offerings definitely have me feeling the love and thinking of how happy I’d be if I just bought EVERYTHING. But then there would be nothing left for you, and I’m not a selfish kinda gal! So what are you waiting for? Get shopping!
