About Me — The Fllynski Files

Another outfit that belonged to my Grandmother, apart from the gold necklace which I stole from my sister over a decade ago. 😆

She was absolutely one of my biggest fashion influences growing up and I am blessed to have so many of her wonderful clot

Turned an old necklace into a circlet/head chain. Feeling like an autumnal princess. 😆

Makeup is some old stuff I'm trying to use up. Waste not want not and all that jazz!

When my Grandparents were getting married my Grandma could decide between two dresses. So she bought both and decided at the very last minute on this one! 🥰

I have been lucky enough to test a new, wonderfully sparkly @fairypantsuk product; Vegan Glitter Body Oil! Though obviously I had to cover my face in it too. 😆

This warm vanilla scented and biodegradable glitter infused oil comes in three different

Been perfecting my wings. 😝

In love with this @zaomakeup felt tip eyeliner and aloe vera mascara. So crisp and pigmented, and oh so ethical!

I feel like Wednesday Addams in this jacket, lipstick and boots! 😆

This gorgeous jacket (complete with shoulder pads 😂) is a hand-me-down from my Grandmother. She used to give me her old clothes all the time when I was a teenager, and a good chunk

I went through a phase in my early teens of collecting waistcoats and ended up with over twenty of them at one point!
I reduced my collection a lot over the past decade, but this gem has stuck with me. My sister bought it for me from our local chari

Period talk! 😝
For a while now I've been meaning to make the switch to more sustainable period products as it is ridiculous the number of normal tampons and pads that end up in landfill and washed up on beaches around the world. I estimate that if I

Still quite proud of the fact this top was the first thing I ever crocheted. 😆
The thing I enjoy most about hand making things is that you can not only be proud of your taste and appearance, but also your skill. Plus it can make you cherish the item

Been playing around with some gorgeous new eyeshadows I bought from @fairypantsuk via @etsyuk 🤗

There's nothing like being surrounded by nature! 🌻
Took a little trip with my Mum and sister to the Botanical Gardens today and was almost able to convince myself I was on holiday!
There are many parts of the gardens that are currently out of order

I've recently been trying to switch up the makeup brands I use, trying to support more businesses that have good, ethical values and practices. One thing I have learnt during my hours of research is that if the ethics and sustainability information f

I often have a little sunbathe in the garden when I'm early for work. I'm waiting for the day my manager finds me and thinks I'm weirder than he already does. 😂

It is important to take time to just be. We spend so much time rushing around and plan

I've had a bit of a break from posting recently to focus on returning to work and getting back into a proper routine. There are a lot of new rules in place to get used to, one of which is face masks.
