Happy Earth Day

Happy Earth Day! Today is a day to talk about all the ways we can help the Earth, but it’s also a great day to celebrate the natural wonder we are all fighting to protect.
The natural world is such a beautiful source of inspiration, from colour to shape to texture, as well as a wonderful source of materials from fibers to gemstones.
Comment and let us know what in nature most inspires you, where your favourite place to spend a day in the wilderness is, or your most cherished outdoor memory!

Pebble Studio makes the best underwear documentaries

Back in the spring time we caught the attention of local photographers and videographers Pebble Studio. Thank you to their exceptional skills and our wild models (well one of the models was a camera man with some unexpected enthusiasm) they made the most incredible short doc about how the magic happens. I have been holding onto this video to share at just the right time and I am thrilled to be able to do it now!

We filmed over two days. I wore a mic for the better part of two days. I was a little apprehensive about how silly I might get with a mic attached to my shirt but I can’t deny it’s authentic. Everyone had such great confidence and chemistry running around in underwear hamming it up on camera. You’ve already seen the stills but now you can check it out from behind the scenes!

Fall is coming… And you’re going to love it!

It’s that time of year again. Summer hasn’t yet sung its swan song but fall is arriving in the stores. Don’t loose hope yet! There’s still some warm weather to enjoy on the way but fall is my favourite season for fashion.

Texture and layering play a big part in this season giving way to lots of personal creativity and adornment. Recently I have been inspired by the unseen, the intangible, the Dao and the other side of the veil. For fall/winter 2016/17 I enjoyed expressing the melding of spirit and life, lucid dreaming and the magic of mathematics. Represented with linen prints, lines, bamboo in electric colour and weightless structures I think you are really going to enjoy integrating these pieces into your wardrobe mixing in your timeless classics. I am going big on layering because not only is it a style choice but a matter of comfort as we go from the dog days of summer into the dead of winter. Don’t hold back, wear things your own way, mix and match jewelry and accessories, layer up your tights and thigh highs and try something new!

As per usual we are releasing fall slowly and hope to have new styles every few days  for your enjoyment but keep an eye out for the new underwear colours and jewelry styles which enhance this clothing collection. Come touch and be inspired by the hand spun hand knit marvels, the softness of angora and cashmere, the drape of alpaca, the warmth of wool.

I say it every season but this one is so far the best!
