After the positive response we received from the green bolero that was featured in "Social and Personal", (Irish Fashion Magazine) we decided that some brides might like to add something edgy to their wedding ensemble too and we experimented with this shape bringing out two options to choose from available to purchase/order in the shop now. The first one is made from a beautiful tapestry style quilted ivory fabric that would be lush for a winter wedding, the second is constructed using a rich ivory and gold jacquard which has a very regal finish to it. The sleeve style was a pattern I designed in college years ago and remains one of my faves to this day, it has a very dramatic silhouette reminiscent of the Victorian era yet has a punky military feel to it too.
These Masquerade boleros are fully lined in bridal satin which is revealed in a large turn back collar for a nice contrast to the patterned base. These can also be ordered in plain ivory, white or champagne satin for the more demure brides, just drop us a line through our etsy store here. ;)

Recently we have been spending some time honoring lots of custom bridal bolero orders for the shop. Its a really nice way of adding a bit of couture to a simple dress or adding a bit of theme to an overall wedding look. Here are some of the more recent wedding boleros to hit the shop

Ok, by now you guys know that I like me a bit of olde worlde now and again, well for this latest piece I did everything bar feed it to the neighbours dog to get that old, antiquated look on something brand new. I think I managed to distress it enough, in fact it looks like something out of an old historical museum! Job well done I would say! ;)

Ok, before I ever stumbled upon etsy and got my boutique up and running I used to spend endless hours scouring google for anything remotely related to design, fashion, craft, romantic, deconstructed, baroque, renaissance.........yada yada yada, basically all the things that I enjoy and find inspiring! one of the things that kept coming up in my searches was a blog by an absolutely inspiring lady called Ulla! I spent a long night reading through her entire blog (and trust me guys this lady is a prolific blogger person), I was totally blown away by the abundance of inspiration throughout the blog not to mention the fact that Ulla seemed to blog about all the things that I am really drawn to but can never quite manage to find!
Well a short while ago I was just shocked to find a message from this very same lady in my inbox in my etsy store enquiring about a couture scarf to be made! Its such an awesome feeling to be asked by someone that you look up to, to make something of your own for them! This was definitely a highlight for me and made me think about how small the world is! In particular the crafting community online! which is fantastic!
For sure if you appreciate fine design and whimsical inspiration go check out http://www.ullam.typepad.com/ and don't blame me if you become an addict! (I know I am!) ;)

Every once in a while I get so busy in the studio on private commissions that I don't get a lot of time to devote to my firstborn (my etsy online boutique! lol) This really begins to bother me after a short while as Ireally feel that the shop gets stagnant and all the wonderful gals who stop by from time to time must be feeling somewhat dissappointed when things don't get shaken up a little. Hence this cream tatter skirt was born.
I decided to step out of the studio deadlines for 1 day and devote my time to creating something new for my etsy shop. This had major theraputic value as it gave me a change from the run of dance costumes that I am currently buried under!! lol It also allowed me to add a change into the etsy shop which was beginning to show mould from sitting unattended for a long while!
Perhaps I could request an extra day in the week to devote purely to new and exciting projects to keep the my etsy presence fresh! ;)

have a great week you guys.

One of my most recent listings on etsy, is this lush cream ruffled NeoVictorian Neckpiece and its sold already! I also really pleased to see that it went to a repeat customer, who has also bought one of my corsets! This is always a really good sign when peeps like to return as its affirming for me that I may be doing something right ! lol
I am really fond of this new piece and thrilled to see that its off to a good home too!!! I will be updating my etsy boutique with more couture Neck Pieces so check by to see the new stock!

I have just finished the Victorian coat for the little girl , and it turned out really special! (kinda hankering after an adult version for meself!) This coat was to match the little wine and cream dress with the petticoat in a previous post. I also finished the look with a pair of lace trimmed bloomers in a fab victorian style pinstripe fabric.
Something tells me this little girl will be having a stylish Christmas! ;)
