| Introduction | I make hats and all sorts of pretty things that turn out the way one would expect from a young gal OBSESSED with the vintage aesthetic. Heavily inspired by 40's/50's kitsch, my work, house, wardrobe, heck whole lifestyle reflect my adoration for the feminine, cheeky and whimsical aspects of that by-gone era. Hats are created entirely by hand from the hand-blocked base to the hand-cut embellishments and embroidery.Each is finished with vintage buttons or swarovski crystals, vintage lace, brooches and other lovely finds...the kind that one can never really justify keeping but dare not part with :) |
| Interests | I live in Perth, Western Australia. I am a creative and somewhat eccentric person in all aspects of life, I like what I like and that seems to stand out, apparently. I love bright, fun fashion, especially that of the 40's and 50's, bright kitsch housewares and furniture and don't ask me about the latest music as everyone I listen to has long been pushing daisies and can only be bought in compilations you hear in department stores. I don't own a television, I like to learn new skills, and complete projects...kinda like a constant "bucket list". My passions are all things vintage, personal and business development, music (jazz, swing, big band, rock n roll-plus the Beach Boys and The Rolling Stones for good measure) and Design (fashion, interior and graphic). I believe that life can run away without you if you let it, so you must always be actively involved with where your heading, and make the journey fun!!! |
