Gifts that keep coming - Make An Advent Calendar
It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas!
Are you starting to feel the Christmas feeling? We're planning our presents lists at Lady K Loves HQ, and have some great ideas to spread some extra Christmas spirit. And the first one needs a little planning and to get started before December.
One of the best things about Christmas as a kid is advent calenders, whether it's pictures or chocolate, all yours or one you shared with your siblings, opening those little doors was the highlight in counting down to Christmas. Why not share that excitement again! You could even swap with friends and all make one each.
Here are a few DIY ideas to make some fun advent calendars, from quick to crafty.
Want a classic version with pictures? Draw your main picture, cut out your 24 or 25 doors, then mark where to draw the hidden images. Hide stars, donkey's and other Christmas images behind each door.
Going for something is presents in?
There's the buy and decorate option like this house from Hobbycraft.
Or use toilet roll or kitchen roll tubes, you can also use egg boxes or other boxes from around the house recycling and decorating them.
Or use glass jars, buckets or containers to make little present holders
A bit more in to something sewing than gluing or constructing? Why not cut out shapes in felt and sew little pockets to hide all of your treats?
So, you have your advent calendar made...now it's time to find the perfect treats. Go classic with chocolates or sweets, be a little more generous with some miniatures of their favourite spirits, or getting hold of some samples of their favourite beauty products? We teamed up a few options and then buy some smaller treats like jewellery or accessories to keep it interesting. Mix and match everything together to make the perfect count down to Christmas.

Autumn Winter is here!
We're delighted to share with you our new autumn winter styles for 2016, you can see the full range on our website here, and you can get 5% off your pre-order with code, AW16Blogger. Combining serious and fun separates which not only mix and match together but work perfectly with many of last seasons styles. Whether you're after a whole new wardrobe or simply want to add a couple of fresh items, we have it covered.
You can see some of our inspiration at our Pinterest mood board, which inspired our shots. We once again fell in love with the glamour and ease of GUESS jeans adverts, particularly those of the early nighties featuring Anna Nicole Smith. We mixed this with some of the playfulness of a relaxed and classic take on rockabilly style. Both styles had an affection for a bad girl, and who were we to ignore that!
Working with a combination of great brands, who brought both playfulness and sophistication thanks to the wonderful Sun Jellies and Bow & Crossbones, with Rockabilly Red hair flowers finishing off the looks to perfection. We're incredibly pleased with the over all look and are excited to show you all of the finished images.

Halloween - Let's Play
So it's time to make sure you have the perfect games ready for all of your party guests, if that' just you and your cat, or you and 50 of your nearest and dearest, you gotta keep them entertained. When it comes to party games you've got the sweet traditional options, and then the more modern or alcohol friendly options, though we at Lady K Loves like to think that you can make any game a drinking game.
There's the classic Bobbing for Apples, with apples in a bowl or barrel of water. Each participant tries to catch an apple only with their mouth. You can play a similar game with apples or treats tied to a washing line.
Pin the tail on the Hell Cat is another family friendly game, blindfold each contestant spin them around, then face them at the board with tail in hand! Please use an illustration, and please don't let your cat play with knives. Both of these games can be easily made into drinking opportunities; You fail? You drink.
Tell ghost stories - cuddle up, get cosy, get out the blankets hot chocolate and marshmallows to melt on a fire, if you've got a camp fire that's the best! If you're at home, why not turn down the lights, get some candles lit and light up the story tellers face with a torch.

Stories not quite real enough for you? How about some fortune telling with tarot cards? Fill the room with incense, turn down the lights, and practice your most mysterious voice.
Keep it simple with the major cards only three options, past, present and future. Ask a question and then wait for the answers to be revealed! Check out sites like Biddy Tarot for expansive means of each card.
Not exciting enough for you? You can always try the classic Ouiju Board from Bristol design Forge
If this ones doesn't do it for you, you could use it as a place mat and coaster for all your Gothic needs!

Jean Jeanie
We've never offered such a good deal on our denim, 15% off all of our denim for this week only!!!!
So, for this week only….all jeans have 15% off!
We love our
jeans and so do you. Sadly due to changes in the UK, we have had to delay more denim
stock and find new denim suppliers this has been a really long process as we know part of what you love is the quality of the denim and we don't want to change that.
Because of how they are made, the fabric is shrunk after the garment is made, it's really important we get a match on the quality but also the shrinkage in the fabric needs to be pretty damn close. Otherwise all of our sizing is OUT. Like way out, like start again on all of the patterns, re sample all 3 current styles and other styles in development, and then re cut at lest 4 styles across 6 sizes, that's a lot of patterns to re-cut!
Thankfully, we’ve found a new supplier and are running
tests on the samples as we type this!
But this means
a couple of things for you, we want to firstly offer you a great deal while you give us a hand and
make some space on our shelves for new stock.Secondly, we should be announcing new pre-orders soon!
So, for this week only….all jeans have 15% off!
Yuh huh, you
read that right, 15% off until the end of Sunday23rd GMT, so grab your self a bargain and get your new autumn wardrobe sorted! Just pop them into your basket and the website will do the rest for you.
Need some help
on which size is best for you? Drop us a line at sales@lady-k-loves.com with your waist
and hip measurements, your height and the style you are interested in.

Halloween - Get crafty
Halloween decorations are the beginning of the fun over autumn and winter for me, you have Halloween, followed by Bonfire night (in the UK) or Thanksgiving for our US friends, then few short, and colder, weeks later you can start to deck the halls and get in the Christmas vibe.
But first.....let's get a little scared!
Pumpkin carving - need recipes to use all of your pumpkin insides for? Why not check out our Halloween food blog
Covering the house in cobwebs or bats!
Need more creepy lighting ideas....how about these dripping lampshades covered in spiders!? Definitely not for the Arachnophobic
Want to makes sure that all of the kids where you live know you're up for some Trick or Treating? You could dress up your window with headless silhouettes, the trees with ghostly figures with flickering lights inside
Feeling like more of a haunted house is your thing? these hanging bodies are a little more on the realistic side.
How are you decorating your house for Halloween?
