✨ New new ✨

I teased these new items in my stories yesterday - so here they are ICYMI!

I've introduced two new fabrics to my bestselling Sassy Tee, ready for Halloween! I'll be making stock of each design, so they'll ship out nice and quick for maximum spooky season wear (but let's face it, they'll get worn all year 🖤)

Black/pink spiderweb - smooth, dense, stretch scuba jersey with an abstract cobweb print
Sugar skulls - pale beige, lightweight loose knit jersey with black skulls

Which is your favourite?

Local Reading (UK) followers!

It might be only Monday, but I'm raring to go for this weekend!

If you're nearby to Reading, Berkshire - pop along to see me (and the other wonderful stalls) at a brand new Goth/Alternative fair this Saturday 27th April! Head upstairs at BrewDog, Castle Street in the town centre.

I'll have stock, including brand new fabrics, and I'll be taking orders too.

When is vintage not vintage?

Well, in this case - it's kind of both! The Grey/Black stripe fabric I use here is vintage! It's a gorgeously comfortable knit blend jersey, most likely 1970s, and stock is very limited.

I love finding special fabrics that allow me to be more environmentally conscious. I seek out OKEO-TEX 100 standard fabrics, threads and trims, and even the smallest fabric scrap is recycled. Buying quality items from small brands is a great way to eschew the waste of fast fashion.

I've not got much of this fabric, so be quick to score something entirely unique!

Time for a close up of this cutie 😍

I've added a classic matching combo of vintage bangles, and a pair of my favourite black foiled heart earrings from Jess Adams Design 🖤

What would you pair with the candy cute pink gingham Sassy tee? 🍬

Glorious gingham ✨

I've been surely but slowly adding more fabrics to my newest style - the Sassy tee! Today's addition is this frankly adorable pink, white and black check.

It's now up and running on my Etsy alongside a white and black gingham, with metallics and stripes in separate listings. I'll be showing you more of these patterns very shortly!

Hello new ✨

Followers of my Etsy miiight have been eagle-eyed a new style up in my store!

I've been dreaming of an easy to wear, comfy and streeeetchy cute t shirt for a little while, and just haven't found quite the right thing!

I set out and sourced some gorgeous jersey fabrics, including this sparkly lightweight grey/silver knit! Unlike some vintage fabrics, it's not at all scratchy and works with my weird autistic sensory skin issues!
Paired with soft black cotton jersey trims to the neck and collar, and ribbed black jersey to the waist.

Available now in two metallic fabrics, and a selection of patterned stripe knits and stretch ginghams!

The skirt is also a - working on getting that up soon too!

Anyone near Bristol? 🖤

I'm so excited to be a stallholder at the Bristol Goth and Alternative Market on Sunday 6th November! Just under two weeks from now!

Head over to their page, check out the FB event (link below), and scroll through all the other wonderful small businesses who'll be there too! Such a privilege to be amongst such other talented folx, many of whom I'm already a big fan of!

The venue, Mount Without looks absolutely incredible too, so it's well worth a visit to peruse the stalls and even grab a drink from the crypt bar 🍷🧛‍♀️

Halloween update!! 🎃👀

I have just re-activated the Etsy listing for my popular Candycorn Café dress!
Fearing I only had enough fabric for just ONE more, and selling it - I discovered there's just about enough for another! Huzzah!!

Be quick if you want the official LAST one! This fabric is no longer available, and it won't be back! 🙀

If you're in the UK, there's still time to order in time for the 31st - I'm working overtime on Halloween outfits for you all!
