Fashion swaps at retirement villages:

Exciting article in the paper today! My friend and I a few weeks ago teamed up and trialed our first fashion swap. I loved the idea so came on board and things moved forward quickly!

We are looking to have her shop The Rose 136 Queen St West Levin, behind The Complex as a base and add more clothing into her container shop.

Focusing on sustainability and keeping quality garments out of the landfill whilst bringing the community together ❤️

Fashion swap:

On Tuesday, Michelle from The Rose and I held our first fashion swap at MiLife Rosewood Park Village - Levin

We had residents drop off quality clothing and items throughout the week, and also, as the day progressed. There was a great turnover of items and everyone went home with beautiful pieces to refresh their wardrobe.

Michelle set things up with her business The Rose with lots of brilliant clothing items, and I pulled about 50 pieces from Free For All in Petone, Trash Palace in Porirua, and a few foxton opshops.

The day was a success, and I look forward to seeing where this venture takes us.

Our intitatve is to keep things out of the landfill, circulate good items within our community, and offer a sustainable resolution so nothing goes to waste.

Retirement village fashion swap: 👖

Today, I teamed up with my lovely new friend Michelle, owner of The Rose pop up shop in Levin, (behind the complex) and we held our first sustainable fashion swap at MiLife Rosewood Park Village - Levin

It was a great success.

Our main goal and driver is to keep things out of the landfill.

The level of waste occurring in New Zealand — both food and clothing — is staggering. I've recently learned that quality garments are being discarded on the instructions of certain op shop managers from out of town, rather than being re-donated or passed on to those who truly need them. This flies in the face of New Zealand's clean, green, and sustainable values — and many local businesses are already rallying together to honour our towns needs and do what is right.

Our shoot off wins at a deeper level for the swap initiative, is bringing people together, looking good = feeling good, giving elderly a space to have a downsize and refresh their wardrobes (which can be emotional but also healing), building connections, helps those who are less mobile to feel included, less offshore shopping, creating a fun good vibes day, and getting a new wardrobe!

The residents are planning to wear their new outfits for Friday night drinks, and I love that.

We are excited to see where this venture takes us.

This was our test run, and thanks to MiLife Rosewood Park Village - Levin the staff, and the residents, we had the best day, great feedback and look forward to doing another swap at more villages and in the Community.

Plus, how epic is my new alligator belt!? As an op shop queen and sustainable stylist, today really filled my cup. I went to free for all in Wellington, and saved 4bags of landfill clothing, Foxton where they had $2 fill a bag clothes, and trash palace, $8 fill a bag clothes and ended up with 50+ pieces of quality items to add to the swap.

Something I've always wanted to try, is hand tooling leather.

Today was my lucky day.

It was $25 at the viking festival in Norswood to handmake a viking bracelet, or $35 for a cuff.

They had a turn out of 4k yesterday and a good turn out today. It's worth going up for. $5 to camp out.

Horses, horse shows, and you can buy armor and swords, crystals, and other cool stuff. Food trucks and axe throwing were a vibe.

After a 20-minute lesson with the leather ladies, I feel fairly confident I could do more tooling and other exciting creations.

The Elle veil:

So excited to share these photos of the Elle veil!!

Custom made drop veil, designed and handmade for the beautiful Elle on her special day. As her hairstylist I designed this veil to tie in with her epic jeweled tiara, her cool girl vibes and not cover up her hair! This veil was my gift to Elle as I was lucky enough to be a guest at the wedding. Seeing her float down the aisle wearing a custom Brimstone gave me all the feels.

Custom Brimstone leads:

I had a fun time making these leads for Miss Nala today, they've been sent up to Auckland ready for training and summer adventures. 🐺

I popped in a new gold lead for Nala with her name on it to go with her gold harness + collar, and we created a custom 15m longline lead for recall training.

I popped on a jazzy handle and some gold webbing as reinforcing and to add some vibes 🌟 it'll also help to find the end! As you can see rolling this up took a while.

Popped in a recycled danish sugar cookie tin to keep it all safe in the post.

Thank you :)
