Can you believe it's already a new year?! I haven't posted in a while. Things were so busy over the holidays with working and making product for two stores as well as custom garments....and working on my business. Always a work in progress! One fun thing I did over the holidays and something I've always wanted to do, was a Christmas shoot! I met the two owners of Creative Supply Productions one day when they popped into my place of work for a meeting. Little did I know it would turn into a new creative relationship. They are just as passionate as...
Last weekend was Atlantic Fashion Week and for the first time , I took part. What and experience! It’s crazy how you work for so long and then it’s over in 5-10 minutes. I had a great group of Uber models. They were all fabulous! I even had a beautiful mother daughter duo, two of my favourite people and part of what I consider my fashion family. I chatted with other designers and felt so inspired by them! My line was called ‘Lemons and Cupcakes.’ I found this fun lemon fabric that I could not resist! It reminded me of...
I've had an obsession with pineapples for about 7 years. It began during my honeymoon in Hawaii. I saw this t-shirt with a pineapple and didn't buy it....then I couldn't find it. I also ate the most delicious, fresh tasting pineapple I ever had. Then suddenly, a few years later, pineapples are all the rage! And I'm here thinking...I already loved them so maybe I was ahead of the trend?! Who knows. In 2017, I did a line for the NBCCD Fashion show called "Stay Sweet". It featured the sweetest pineapple print designed by Surface Designer and fellow entrepreneur, Dee Wilkie, just pour moi!...
It's so easy to say "I'm going to do...blah blah blah" but actually doing it and trying to balance everything, is a real challenge. I work full time, have a toddler and a business making clothing and jewellery. There are days when I just want to throw in the towel. There are late nights of eureka moments and nights of frustration...working during the day is not really an easy option for me as I work full time and when I’m off, I spend the day with my child. However, it's something I've wanted to do since I was a very young girl. The photo I used for this post is one of sheer innocence taken by my sister at the...
Hi, I’m Adrienne. I’m a wife, mother and fashion and jewellery designer. Welcome to my page! Let me tell you a little bit about moi :) I’m creative, passionate and a bit of a perfectionist. My style is feminine, classic with a modern twist, and chic. I fell in love with fashion when I was about 8 years old. Despite my mother warning me about the ‘nudity’ (hmmm sheer clothing lol) on my fave show (well, besides She-Ra and Jem and the Holograms), Fashion Television. Without this show I would not be who I am today. I was so sad when it ended. I’m pretty sure a lot of people felt the same. Fun fact-I ‘met’ Jeanne Beker...
