Life In style

4 March, 2010

What an amazing 4 days at Sydney’s Life Instyle last week!!! We were surrounded by some great exhibiters Miss Haidee with her vintage one off’s made by Nanna’s in Byron Bay, Aunty Ollie with her wonderful retro wear, Jazslings the practical one piece sling (no rings..I love it) and the very lovely Mally from Grasshopper a beautifully hand knitted range of baby wear by some amazing women in Zimbabwe.

Other wonderful products I saw were from Princess Ratbag (the most luxurious pettiskirts ever), with there new apricot / musk skirts (can’t say it enough…amazing) and as always clever, clever Jetti Spaghetti with lamps, chopsticks and blackboard placemats .

We had a busy time, what with all the trade shows happening at the same time, George Michael playing near the grounds and the Mardi Gras Parade on the Saturday, there was lots of colour and movement!

Surrounded by cardboard yet again, I wore my Mady Dooijes hemp/organic cotton dress (dyed with tea…very cool, check this designer out :) and talked eco peko until I was peko’ed right out…..
