"for fashion’s sake"
I bought this jug in Value Village yesterday. I was really attracted to the colour combo, and thought it would look lovely in my kitchen.
This morning, while perusing my favourite fashion blog, Auntie Fashion- what’s the first thing I see? My jug, reinterpreted into a dress by Marc Jacobs [...]
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 [...]
This past weekend I had a booth at The Clothing Show, something I’ve done twice a year for the past five years. The show has been getting worse and worse every time, and I am scratching my head trying to figure out why.
To break it down for you, all you thousands of people who [...]
Loenne and I are making an appearance on the Charlie Boutique blog at the moment. Babies make such great accessories. Everyone should go out and get one for spring 2010.
(Kidding, of course! I didn’t have a baby to be more stylish, if only! My style choices these days can be summed [...]
I am in hot pursuit of my New Year’s resolutions, specifically, #5- open an Etsy store. I am having a hard time deciding what to call it. Butikofer is too complicated. I’m over it, and thinking of changing my name to something easier, like ‘ball’ or maybe even just “ba”. Then everyone could pronounce it, including [...]
So I skipped another season. Poof! I started designing fall 2010, sourced fabrics- some really great ones. I had a tight little 15 piece collection designed and then. . . nothing.
So basically, not having a studio space is killing me. That was the main reason [...]
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.
I was randomly looking around the net and came across a pair of Easy Spirit shoes that looked pretty weird so [...]
The Caninja sale is now over,but if we are in mid communication regarding a Caninja, I still have it for you. The rest are being taken to Out Of The Cold. Stay warm!!
I dug out my stock of Caninjas from storage in order to send a few to some prairie folk who really need them. [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
