The CandleLight Club


After weeks of preparation, from sourcing a 1920's vintage dress pattern to lucking out when I found this fabric in the Brixton Market.  The moment is finally here to wear my outfit to the simply amazing 'The CandleLight Club'.  I thought the outfit came together quite well, especially when my Japanese friends gave me a perfectly matching Haori (Kimono Jacket) the week before.  It turned out that others thought it look good as well when I ended up winning best dressed girl at the event.

Outfit
Headpiece: Hand made with bits found at Shepherds Bush Market
Haori: Vintage from Japan
Dress Pattern: Reconstructing History
Fabric: Brixton Market
Handbag: Peacocks
Shoes: Clarks

Charity Ball



After power folding 75 origami flowers to decorate the goodie bags, we are heading off to the Cancer Research charity ball.  This is the first outing of my amazing 1960's influenced ASOS skirt and another version of in my opinion is also amazing...my hand made vintage brooch encrusted Necklace/bib.  Once I master the felt base, I will be creating versions of this necklace in many different colour options.  I will let you know when they are available to purchase.
