Coming up!

Nothing to show at this point and time, I could give a sneak peak of some designs from my new collection,but I wouldn't want to give too much away so early! After putting it off for months and many ideas thrown around about what the new theme should be, I have finally got my head down and started designing my new collection. After a recent holiday in Florida, including a visit to Hollywood studios, I felt inspired to design using this as a starting point. One of my favourite rides was Tower of Terror, which is based on The Twilight Zone, so I have used this loosely as the theme for my collection, which works as a great excuse to watch episodes of The Twilight Zone! I also have a few requests for designs which I am looking forward to making. Keep up to date with the progress on my facebook page at www.facebook.com/splashinginpuddles236 .

I'm still here

I don't have much to share at the moment, as I am currently attempting to save money to fund a new collection, therefore am working hard in a shoe shop (trying to resist buying shoes). I have also just returned from Orlando and yes I did meet Mickey( and Minnie, Goofy, The Grinch and Cat in the Hat), now it's back to normality, how boring!
I would also like to try sell my graduate collection as well as the gold boots used for styling, however I understand the bright colours are not for everyone. If you like something or know of someone you think might be interested get in touch. Each piece can be sold separately!
Anyway, I thought I best check in since it really had been such a long time, but I'll stop rambling, night all! Xx

It's been a while!

I know it has been ages since I posted anything on here, things have been getting in my way recently. I started a new job, so have been working full time and am now trying to find a way of balancing both jobs! A few months ago I took part in a photoshoot with Edinburgh based photographer Anette Schive, at Portobello Beach, unfortunately as the images were submitted to magazines I haven't been able to share them. Good news came yesterday, when I received a message to say they had made the October issue of Editorial Photo Magazine, which means I can now share the amazing images!

Life at the moment

Last time I posted I had a shoot coming up with photographer Anette Schive,it went really well and I'm pleased with the outcome,however the photographs have to be secret for now. At the moment I am fairly busy, what with trying to make that transition from student designer to actual designer, it's all becoming quite stressful and exciting. I am enjoying making dresses for people on a made to order basis at the moment, and it's going quite well! Starting to put some ideas together for a new collection, however I have some saving to do before then. Also have a few fashion shows to come soon that I am excited about! Check out www.facebook.com/splashinginpuddles236 for my business page and designs! I'll leave you with some of the recent dresses I have been working on.

I haven't disappeared

I know that it has been a few weeks since my last post, but I figured if I have nothing to say or show then there isn't much point boring you :)

In the next few weeks I will have exciting new things to post! I am currently working on two dresses for friends, which I am very excited about and am also doing a photoshoot in Edinburgh next week after being approached by a photographer. I have a few other things in the pipeline, so slowly but surely I am getting work in this crazy fashion line of work! Hope have pictures to post soon, but for now I'm away, before you get bored of me ;)

First sale!

Exciting news! I was asked by a friend to design and make a dress for her to wear to a wedding, with the only request being colour and that it be backless. Of course I was very excited as this is the first time I have been given this opportunity. So I threw myself straight into the design and a few weeks on I handed over
the dress (which fitted) for actual payment! I feel like a designer, ha ha. More of this to come hopefully! Pictures of Anna's dress to come after Saturday! X
