New Retro inspired handbags by Miss Happ

a while ago I mentioned that I was working on some new bag designs for Miss Happ...well...here they are!

All our fab ladies hand bags are lined in funky contrast fabrics and have a little contrast cell phone pouch. The handles are cute tiki inspired bamboo handles AND each bag has detachable bow brooch that can also be worn on your cardigan or jacket for that little unique touch. This little bag is the perfect way to finish off your rockin' outfit for a night out with the girls and will sure turn heads!

I used a selection of cute print for the outside from cherries and strawberries to retro inspired hotrod prints and the classic leopard print fur! We have 4 basic styles and shapes.

All our hand bags are available from both my Etsy Store and my local online store, Khayali.

I hope you like!

Till next time!

Pinup 101 Workshop NEW dates for MAY 2012

Wanting to know how to achieve that Rockabilly and Pin-Up look, but have no idea where to start? Then sign yourself up for ‘Pin-up 101 BASICS’

Our first Pinup 101 Workshop on the 31st of Marchc was a great success, with our first class being full up - 16 ladies in total attended which was exciting for everybody. This time round we have decided to run the same class, but split it into two smaller groups of 12 ladies in each - this way we can give each lady that extra special attention that she needs!

Girls are always asking us “how do you get the look?” Well, now’s your chance to discover all the tips and tricks from girls in the know!

Bring your girlfriends, let your hair down (or tie it up in a bandana) and join the gals from AnonaMiss Beauty Emporium, Miss Happ and Sailor Jerry, while we show you easy step-by-step techniques for creating that basic pin-up look. From the perfect eyeliner application to how to wear those damn bandanas!

The cherry on top will be a cocktail hour with Sailor Jerry where you’ll get to shake, stir and sip cocktail like a starlet from a by-gone era.

On the day each of our attendees will receive a little gift hamper with a whole bunch of glorious goodies from AnonaMiss, Miss Happ & Sailor Jerry to set our promising pinups on their way in style!

We will also have a some awesome give-aways on the day including a Tattoo voucher from Milo "Mr Lucky" Marcer Tattoo...how much better could it get?!

Miss Happ new stockist in CT!

Wildfire has a ton of our new accessories - for both the Canal Walk branch and the new Town branch...

 

Take a step back in time to the South Pacific, Pearl harbour circa 1941. To the sounds of the big band and war time rationing. To a time when the ladies wore victory rolls and red lipstick, seamed stockings and girdles... 

last week we had such a stunning shoot at the SADF Museum with the ladies. There was so much to look at I was beside myself - literally got goose bumps walking through the museum, then later in the hanger I thought I had died and gone to heaven!

We were lucky enough to have the use of an authentic airforce jacket from the 40's for a few pics which was AMAZING!

The Fly cap was made by Miss Happ from a vintage pattern that I had managed to source - I found out yesterday that it's an American fly cap from WWII. I had made it in two different colurs and fabrics, and added contrast piping. We had also borrowed a badge from the museum to finish it off properly.

I had spent the last two days making up a special military inspired corset from a lovely khaki wool, also had the perfect anchor buttons, that I was told by the museum curator yesterday where actually the authentic navy buttons! Little did I know at the time...no wonder they were so perfect! We made up a stone coloured high waist skirt with back box pleat and contrast black piping down the side - which tied up to the cap. And of course we had the seamed fishnet stocings to complete that look.

When we walked into the hanger where we were shooting there were these two old bombs there and I just knew what had to be done! We had to do something is that 40's cheese cake style...Everybody thought I was slightly MAD, but it looked super cool! It's a fun pic and very much in the Cheese cake photography style!

The Blue tiki dress that we used was one of my Miss Happ dresses that I currently have for sale in my shop, as well as the parasol which added perfectly to the scene.

I worked with a great team which is always a pleasure. We all did the photos as a way to promote our various businesses, and in my case my clothing and accessories - some of which are already for sale in my shop. This is what I am passionate about and I was in heaven!

Till next time!
