Custom Carnival Birthday Party Hat


There is something about making a hat for a five year old that overwhelms me with confusion and elation. The decisions! The choices! The possibilities! They're endless and I'm convinced its going to leave the studio trailing glitter with a mustache and a feather boa. 

 

I may have to step away more times than usual, but I think I always wind up with a balance of 
happy and classic.

 Popcorn and Jelly Bellys. #Thisisnotadream.

 

This was Connie's second custom piece from me which melts my heart and all.. but on top of it... this lady is cool. And it sounds like Olivia is too. "She loves all colors. The crazier the better I think". The solution = colorful polka dot lining. 


Mismatched patterns = always in style

The lineup if you're inspired to make some stuff mad:

Orange Calico Canvas
                                                              Bright Polka Dot Cotton
Yellow and White Stripe Satin 
Orange Argyle


 
 She even looked pretty as I was packaging her to ship. 


#TwoBackFlats #Represent



 Happy almost birthday to Olivia! Bet your carnival party is going to be a SMASH! And thank you Connie for being an excellent gift giver and for this fun, fresh project. My birthday is June 24th.


As always for your own custom piece, message me on the ol' Facebook or Etsy

Love. love. love.

Eat your heart out Marie Antoinette

For you this Valentines day my lovers: Every girl's true fantasy. A real life dress up party. Alice in Wonderland meets Marie Antoinette meets East Coast bad assery.



One day, I swear I will plan something in advance but until then, you can understand how my procrastination is not dire. I shit you not, we pulled off this shoot in one week. When you have so many bougie bitches on speed dial, this is just another Sunday afternoon... ;)


My first muse Tia Darling sporting, oh so naturally, this French blue Marie Antoinette inspired mini tricorn hat and a necklace she is too humble to tell you she made herself.

 

These pink champagne coupes are not a dream. They are real. And they our mine. Well, really their ours. Another Tia & Jas thrifting escapade find!


Are you sitting down?? Well GET UP because Nina in this mini hat and Jill Andrews Gown is already one of the best moments of 2013.




 A little authentic Victorian goggle action courtesy of House of Jill. 
Jill has the most awesome assortment of the finest, classical, ton notch vintage shit you've ever seen.


Like these vintage clothing labels from Baltimore designers and department stores. Lord have mercy. #gimme



 The hauntingly beautiful Erica Von Lindenberg who I am so unbelievably lucky lends me her head for my hats. 



 And of course me! Bougie bitch numero uno feeling all glam with that red silk hair flower and this A-MAZING collar made entirely of real rose petals!! Its true!!!



And the lady herself behind these DIVINE live rose petal collars. Amanda Veronee of Anthomanic. This girl is unstoppable. Her work is straight out of a dream with its weepy, sultry, romantic vibe.



These colorssss!!! Le sigh*

Paired with the turquoise skirt surrounded by a myriad of vintage busts. Dream within a dream.



And red heart balloons :)


Did I mention this all came together in a week like real life MAGIC?! The purple flowers, the deep plum gown, that wysteria top hat. <3 nbsp="" p="">







Yes, atop that pink and gold flawlessly ruffled cake sits a pink mini tricorn hat with a tiny bird, Sailboats, pink ostrich plumes and a teeeny tiny vintage crown for aforementioned tiny bird.





Nina, Tia, Jasika, Amanda & Erica
