I had a nice little day dream today-
I was on Project Runway and the challenge guidelines were to use fresh produce to make a dress. I had access to a kitchen and about 10 convection ovens, and I concocted a fruit leather dress in 12 hours! How amazing would that be- imagine the pretty yellows, oranges and [...]

THE SHOES!! (well, a few of them anyway)
First of all, the name rocks- if I could change the name of my brand to anything, Easy Spirit is definitely in the top five.

Well hello. Allow me to introduce myself.
Watashi no namae wa Adrienne desu.
I learned that in grade 8, and I just managed to pull it out of my bum for you. It’s “my name is Adrienne” in Japanese. Are you impressed yet? What does a girl have to do!?
So, fall apparently is a time for buying books. Lots [...]

Auntie Fashion
An anonymous blogger, an expert astrologer, a world wide fashion muse and critic, and dare I say, a friend.
Read it if you enjoy insightful commentary on fashion, and if you like “laughing”.
Here is a rare photo of Auntie Fashion snapped on an Alaskan cruise. Beautiful and mysterious, as usual.
Glory be to Zob.
