For a (slightly belated) fashion friday, i wanted to introduce you to Bambi & Tramp. The vegan shoe-lovers dream created by Miss Elle Howard.
As they are still fairly new, they have just 11 styles to choose from but i'm sure that will grow rapidly! They are an Australian based company but ship worldwide excluding Nicaragua, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria and Sudan. You can read more about their shipping info here, although their shipping may not be favorable to most outside of Australia, i do know i have some Australian readers so wanted to share about them any way!
Find more of their shoes here and leave a comment below with your favorite vegan clothing brands!
I know it might be more winter than fall now, but since i didn't have any Halloween tutorials for you... heres the fall favorites tag!
If you know of any awesome vegan winter boots or hiking boots, please do share them below!
Kicking off the #fashionfriday posts again with another Urban Expressions Giveaway!
Jak Bag in Nutmeg- $110
Huge size and fits my laptop sideways- major plus!
Incredible quality of hardware, stitching and design.
Perfect for people who like to carry a lot.
Folds up small and is light so you could pack it in your suitcase for use when you get to your destination.
Lilian in Charcoal- $80
Compact yet still fits lots in.
The "leather" finish is beautiful and the design is so unique.
Seriously well made, feels like a vintage doctors bag.
Mya in Black- $60
Gorgeous texture and super "up to date" as far as designer bags go.
Lots of space for cards, change, lip balm etc.
Again, feels like a vintage design because of the obvious thought and craftsmanship.
Perfect to grab and go.
Sandra in Natural- $50
Less organized space than the Mya but LOTS of space for makeup/ change etc.
Less structured but still beautifully made.
Vintage feel, fo' sho.
Don't forget to enter to win a Sandra of your own! Enter via youtube here by commenting with the name of your favorite UE bag from their website or enter via Instagram by regramming the graphic posted to my insta.
Guys, maybe this is really "out there" but i could not stop thinking about the death of Sandra Bland as soon as i read the last product name... because of that i wanted to leave a link to her family's legal fund here.
Part "Whats In My Bag", part "Packing Like a Pro"... all here!
Same compartments as the Krystyna minus the outside zipped pocket.
Gold edging and zips.
I think this is big enough and enough of a statement piece that you could use it as a clutch.
I'd also 100% believe this was designer.
Although leather isn't always easy to avoid, Urban Expressions makes it very easy to do so!
I know some people have had concerns about faux leathers not breaking down/ biodegrading and how bad for the environment that is, well it seems Urban Expressions have thought of that, too.
"Unlike our competitors, Urban Expressions does not use harmful plastics in their products such as poly vinyl chloride (or PVC). UE products are made only with Poly Urethane (or PU). In comparison to PVC, PU is a better material because:
Its natural, leather-like texture does not require the solvents (or harmful chemicals) used to soften PVC throughout the manufacturing process
It can be designed to deteriorate after a period of time which is great for the environment where as PVC is not biodegradable
Even though PU is biodegradable, it's still a much more durable, quality material unlike PVC"
Don't forget, you can enter to win a grey Quinn bag from Urban Expressions on YouTube or Instagram.
Youtube: Check out the Urban Expressions website and post a comment letting me know what your favorite bag in their range is!
Instagram: Check my Instagram (@wifelife) for the giveaway graphic. Follow myself and @iheartue and regram the image tagging us both and using the hashtag #wifelifeurban

I got you, boo.
So last week's #fashionfriday drained my creative juices a little but i'm hoping this WIMB video will make up for it!
Jeans- Sky High Jeggings at American Eagle
Lips- OCC Lip Tar in Stalker
So i know i mentioned in my last video that my #fashionfriday video would be my fall faves but this internet is killing me. So, as to not leave you empty handed (or would that be empty-eyed?), i wanted to at least share with you my secret to fabulous non-leather shoes: Truffle!
I'm not talking truffle as in the delicious, yet slightly controversially found mushroom, i'm talking Truffle at ASOS.
Not only is everything synthetic and cheap, they literally have every style of shoe you could imagine.
From boots to platforms to converse-style sneakers and beyond...
When i posted my last "What's In My Bag" video, a few of you asked how i felt Forever 21 bags held up and honestly i've been consistently impressed by them.
I recently got to see a few of them in the (synthetic) flesh in Vegas and wanted to share my favorites with you for this #fashionfriday - they had an awesome selection in store that i can't find online so definitely stop in and check them out if you are lucky enough to live near one.
No, i have not been baring my behind in the cold London waters, i'm merely showing you some awesome headphones i found.
After seeing these awesome Skinny Dip London headphones i contacted them to ask if they were made of real leather or not.
They all run for around £25 and you can see the rest of their headphone collection here.
