Market life for me started off with an array of mismatched items and selling at a makers market I helped organise on the green next to Cafe - more often than not, I'd have my kids running around in the background 🙈

Now I have a slightly more professional setup and I'm so grateful for the journey.

As I negotiate my next business steps and what is working for - I hope you continue to join me ☺️

How are we all surviving the heat? 🥵

I'm working my way through my wardrobe this bank holiday weekend and wore this piece to vibe out at yesterday.

My next in person event selling these one off denim designs will be the festival June 14.

Or you can always come visit me at my Leyton studio to browse the collection or discuss a commissioned piece.

How it all started...

Did you know that I began mainly making children's clothing?

Now it's grown into something a bit bigger, many of the original styles can still be found online 😍

If you've ever asked 'Are African prints for me?' You certainly wouldn't be the first...

I often have this conversation at markets and my response is always the same - there's nothing wrong in wearing the fabric, as long as you're not disrespecting the culture attached to it 😊

So, do you love bold prints?
Do you love bright colours?
Do you want to inject some vibrancy into your home?
Are you tired of colourless children's outfits?
Then, yes, yes, yes, African prints are definitely for you!
