We just finished an ensemble for out top etsy client Steff recently and Im chuffed with the results. I wanted to create something in our typical tatter couture style with a pinch of punk thrown in and all mixed up with a flavour of anglo-mania in there too. I get a Vivienne Westwood or McQueen vibe of this outfit and this is one of those pieces that I wish I could just sneak into my own wardrobe for keeps. (I love my layered skirts you see!)
I'm happy to know its goin to the best home!

We recently had the pleasure of collaborating with one of our all time favourite innovative etsy peers, TopsyTurvyDesigns. Kim is one of the most exciting milliners on etsy and constantly creates wearable art with her sculptural theatrical inspired pieces. It was awesome to send some of our neck pieces over to the States for a photoshoot by the Kate O Brien Collective and the results were really special.
Here are some of the pics from the shoot! :)

Here is a couple of shots from a really lovely bridal commission for a very special Andrea on etsy. Andrea shared some of her wedding plans with us and we spent an afternoon swooning over her venue, dress and church. When Andrea is done being a bride Im pretty sure the wedding planning industry will be coming a knockin! ;)
The set was made from stunning champagne raw silk fabric, well..... one would ask, what else? :)
If you would like to order a bridal bag in your own color simply send us a message with your order.

Guys,
We wanted to share the most recent fashion shoot that has just come out in the DEC/JAN issue of Irish fashion magazine Social and Personal. (Do you guys remember the post a while back where Ger and I went on a road trip to a really old manor house, well this is the result of that particular one) We got to hang out for the day in the hotel room with the stylists, models, make up artists, and the amazing hair team Zeba (Award winning Irish edgy hairdressers) and it was such a great day and a really cool insight into the magazine industry. Some of our pieces were worn next to Alexander McQueen one of my fave designers. The photographs came out so beautiful, we wanted to share them with you. ;)

We had the pleasure of working with a truely endearing bride by the name of Stewart through our etsy boutique this year. Stewart was such a lovely client, we became pals towards the end of our consulting period and even when the transaction was completed Stewart and her new hubby took their honeymoon in Ireland and I was all set to meet them both but sadly never caught up with them as a result of missing their message on my mobile phone. It was a missed opportunity to meet a gal who I had grown very fond of over the course of our chatting about her custom neck piece for her wedding. I'm hoping they both revisit us here for their anniversary where I can make up for missing them the first time round! ;)
Stewart wore one of our custom made neck adornments with her stunning wedding dress and her fabulously talented florist " Janie Medley Flora Design" created the most stunning bouquet and floral arrangements that tied the whole theme and color/colour scheme in magnificently. Stews images from gifted photographer Eleise Theuer were the icing on the cake and they captured the the essence of the day perfectly. I love how at ease Stewart looks in the picture above, 0obviously in complete bliss and ever so elegant too. Shots from Stewarts wedding are going to be featured soon in a bridal magazine too which is really exciting for all involved. I will keep you guys posted when that comes up too.
Stewart, Ger and I would like to wish you both a fabulous journey together and we hope that you get back as much lovely karma as you exude. :)

Folks, we are really excited to announce our very first trunk show! We are going to participate in "Soiree in the City" run by the amazingly talented bridal photographer Laura Eaton. Laura takes the most fabulously edgy bridal pics that have a very "fashion magazine editorial feel" about them, more like a piece of art for your home than a wedding album pic!
Laura is hosting a bridal trunk show on January 17th in her studios, promising to be the coolest bridal styling event in Philadelphia! We are so excited to be a part of such an interesting evening and to be our very first trunk show too! Sadly trunk shows are not common over here in Ireland and we always oogle from afar at all the interesting craft expos and trunk shows that happen stateside and thanks to Laura we are now going to join the ranks and open up shop for one night at "Soiree in the City"! Join Laura and a host of other vendors for an evening not to be missed with cocktails, photography, image consultancy, make up artistry and more, why not make a night of it and bring your bridesmaids along.
There will be some of our bridal wraps and accessories available to purchase on the night and Laura will be taking orders too!
All we need now is a ticket from Santa for a plane ride to Philly from Ireland! lol
