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!

Best dressed at Goodwood

Some of my work!! Yvette designed and I made this beauty ages ago, and Francesca Cumani won best dressed in it at Goodwood racecourse. 

Blogger is having a bit of a spaz with pictures at the moment, and because I changed laptops there isn't much I can do about it which is a pain.

Next week I am down in London to go for a conference and while I'm there I'm taking a course on how to make SHOES! from scratch!!! too excited for this, which is resulting in lots of sketchbooking for it. Also it means I will be in London for Halloween, and you would be a fool not to make the most of that, so have loads of outfit planning to do!

Fun.

Ascot (revisited)

Found this photo of me at ascot.

Pommery Brown

3 birds one stone- wanted to draw the beautiful puppy Pommery, wanted to think about logo designs for the menswear range at Yvette Jelfs AND Pickle, the lovable 5 year old, wanted to play.

Was playing for about 2 hours and only got one drawing done, because I spent most of my time cutting things out for Pickle.
