Had a fabulous time at the milliners' fete.
Sipped too much bubbly, met many new hat enthusiasts and caught up with old friends.
Pictures coming soon, I promise.
I'm feeling inspired to make hats again. So far the ones I've made for myself were received well.
Just may have to add some to the collection.
On an unrelated note...
Caroline and I are planning a little holiday shopping event in her lovely gallery in Williamsburg. The dates are December 12th and 13th.
More details to follow, but save the dates.
Have a great weekend.

Love the imagery in this.
Love this song, and everything about her.
That kind of day.

Organic wool scarflettes are back in stock.
I'll be adding new styles to the shop later this week.
Right now I'm updating the images.
I feel that more detailed photos will do these lovelies justice.
Off to play photographer.

I'm in love with the black and white rendition of this video.
Original version can be seen and heard HERE.
The movement and interaction between Nick and PJ seems so much more dramatic without their song.
Original version can be seen and heard HERE.

The weather forecast for the next 4 days in not making me very happy.

I dread the arrival of cold rainy season more and more each year.
Then studio gets cold, damp and dark, and my mood follows suit.
Only highlight is that I get to wrap my body in layers of warm and cozy garments. So what if resemble a crazy hobo. I'm warm, I'm functioning, and best of all, the Mr. doesn't have to listen to me bitch about how freaking cold I am.
In order to preserve my sanity and get through at least today, I am compiling my wish favorites for the upcoming wintery chill.

Really love this Coal Black Artisanal Wool Coat no. 1 by Patricia Ayers (also in gray and brown)

Simple lines, careful balance between rugged and feminine styling, couture detailing.
The flirty opening at the shoulders seals the deal for me. Notice how well it looks with a sexy neck ruff. Would look amazing with any of these scarflettes, no?
Patricia is also the talent behind artLab. I've been a fan of her work for a long time.
And who would not want to be wrapped in this lovely asymmetrical number by YY Studio?
It has enough material to do my hobo look in style.
Added bonus, it somewhat reminds me of this royal coat.
