Girls wearing pearls

These are some images from the 2005 movie of "the producers", The costumes are by William Ivey Long, whom I adore. The inspiration was from the line beautiful girls wearing nothing but pearls and now I kind of want to do this for Halloween.

Yvette at Jaeger

Yesterday was a bit of a high for me and the Yvette Jelfs team- after almost a year of planning and designing and meeting with buyers our hats were released in the Edinburgh stores for the first time yesterday. There was a lovely champagne and cake reception and lots of lovely ladies trying on and buying hats and matching outfits.

I got to borrow the most beautiful dress for the occasion, and if it were not for my refusal to buy this month I would have been sorely tempted by it.

Anyway the hats looked fantastic and it was all terribly good fun and I'm on a bit of a high with it all!

I, Ailsa Victoria, need to pipe down and stop buying so many clothes and the only way I'm likely to do that is to have a complete freeze on it for the next 3 months. I am probably going to get about 3 minutes in and see a cute top in the window of somewhere or online somewhere but I have to learn to SAY NO. Here's why;

So that's my quit fast fashion manifesto!
