![]() Does this sound familiar? You get up in the morning, shower, have breakfast, start thinking about the day ahead. Your mood is good, you are ready to take on the world. Then you open the closet door, and arrrgh — your spirits fall. You have no idea what to wear. There's a closet full of clothes, but putting together something that will be comfortable and flattering all day, given what you have to do today, just doesn't seem possible. You are not alone. Many women feel this way. For some the daily routine is easy. It's that unexpected invitation that strikes fear into your heart: your cousin's wedding, a presentation for work, a hot date or, even worse, a school reunion — ack! Do you remember the days when getting dressed was fun? Maybe when you were younger, before the kids and the job and the busy lifestyle you now have. Well, that's what I'm here for — to make getting dressed fun again. I design and make limited-edition accessories for you and your home. At the moment I am focusing on scarves and wraps, with some jewellery pieces thrown in for good measure. I prefer to use natural fibres and upcycle as much as possible. I also design and make bespoke clothing. This could be everyday items or something for a special event like a wedding. Bespoke clothing is attractive to different customers for different reasons. Perhaps you just don't like the quality or styling of what is being offered ready-made. Perhaps you're not finding ready-made clothes that fit you properly. I'm here to help and work with you on something that's just right for you. I offer a wardrobe makeover service — think "What Not to Wear," but I am much politer and would never throw away someone else's clothes. What I am offering is advice rather than a full-scale intervention. Combining aspects of the bespoke clothing and wardrobe makeover services, I also remodel clothing. I'll take your off-the-peg or vintage garments and make custom alterations to fit and flatter your particular figure. |
