You can never have enough stripes

Courreges (gift from my friend Caroline),
Muji sleeveless (from HK),

Muji long sleeve (from Japan - very old now, you can see how much I have grown since I bought it),

PLAY by Comme des Garçons (gift from Aly),

MAIIKE (from new summer season)

St James (my newest, wore it today, love it).

I do have more, but I consider these my favourites in the style of classic sailor tops.  Next one will be a summer weight St James white with red stripes, if we can get it in...

Oliver's choice

Our very good friends Belinda & Ben visited me in store recently and introduced me to their new daughter Jasmine.  I had the pleasure of holding her while Ollie picked out a Maiike puppy her, so that his siter has her own one now.
I went to uni with Belinda (a multi talented designer) & I will never forget her generosity towards me at our final year parade.  She saved me by sharing her shoes as none of the shoes I got fitted my models' feet and I ended up using hers before her collection came out!   Who would do that... thank you Belinda.

Check out the work of my students! I am so proud of them...

Blog formatting is very frustrating!

It doesn't work the way it should & I keep losing my posts...

Bunnies + Flowers

This photo by Thuy Vy

Jessica has been filling in for Aly (traveling in Vietnam) and made a helmet for our guard bunny.  She is bit of a milliner.

We have a bit of bunny thing happening in store.

And flowers, fresh from Aly's or our neighbour's garden.  Aly will buy some in if her garden has none whereas I tend to pick weeds or steal some from nature strips....

Our monster (monstera deliciosa) is very happy, had two new leaves since we opened (two and a half months now).  Suitcase on the background belongs to my family, it migrated from Greece to Turkey with my dad's family and to Australia with us.  My dad replaced the lining once, before he moved to go to university.

Flowers from Emily, 20 days old now! Thank you.

Emily's sister's bunny visited us while Mick fixed her bicycle & she got in to trouble with her dad... didn't tell she was taking him!

Unnamed bunny with MOVEMBER - Dali or Turk?

This photo by Thuy as well.

Tea cup jewellery by Julie Bozinovska.  Miniature antique porcelain tea set belonged to Aly's mum.

Toku bunny rattle from Japan.  Made from plantation forest wood.

Toku wooden toys are safe for inquisitive kids as they are finished with beeswax.

Original Maiike Bunny - last one left till Aly gets back!
