I’m rather excited about going to see this at the Victoria & Albert museum in London. Stephen Jones makes hats fit for a queen, so I can’t wait to get along and have a peek.
This video shows some of the key pieces, but the one I’m dying to see, (just because I want to make one like it), is the hat Sarah Jessica Parker wore to the premiere of Sex and the City: The Movie.
Here are some things I love:
1. Hanging out with Dan
2. Dogs - especially Poppy, who lives with my mum, so I don’t get to see her as often as I’d like. Poppy has a winter jacket for the cold which makes her look extra sweet
3. Daffodils - they’re such funsters
4. Cocktails
5. Rooting around in VV Rouleaux, even though it is rather pricey
This is the first fascinator I made, to go to my friend’s wedding. The nectarines are pretty delicate - too much dancing and they get a bit bashed up. I like using contrasting materials - I think the straight feathers and the crazy netting look quite good together.

This is one of my favourites and I wore it on New Year’s Eve. It has a black silk rose and a sinamay twirl. There’s a cheeky Swarovski crystal butterfly hanging out on the twirl, and netting to add a bit of height.
This is my first post, whooo! I love my shiny new blog, lovingly designed by Dan.
