21.01.2022 "Meet some of the deadliest Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Fashion Designers and artists along with their fashion labels, who are starting to make their mark in the industry."

20.01.2022 This jacket belonged to my mother - she bought it as a young woman just a few years back It has stood the test of time for the most part...except the lining In true procrastinator fashion I have had the project - even the selected fabric - on the back burner for YEARS! ... Finally today I have finished the ‘Lining Replacement Project’ and am super excited to have somewhere to wear it out to... Also excited to show it to mother tomorrow #vintagecoat #retrolining #procrastinationover

10.01.2022 The age old classic! I love a good jeans find in op shops ... but found denim jackets much more difficult - they tend to be an item you actually hang onto, which is brilliant!
