APRIL SHOWERS

TOTAL BELIEVERS IN COLOUR THERAPY ARE WE, AND SINCE WE AREN'T THE LIPSTICK WEARING TYPE, WE'VE GOT TO GET OUR ROUGE KICKS ANOTHER WAY.
AND HOW; THROUGH A SERIES OF POPPY-HUED STREAKS AND STROKES ON SOME NEW ALIX OF BOHEMIA TOGS. 

OUR FAVOURITE HAS TO BE THE HANDPAINTED CAMELIA BLOUSE  AT THE FRONT. 
REMEMBER WHEN WE PAINTED THE FABRIC IN MEMORY OF CY? (SEE HERE) FINALLY THE FRUITS OF OUR BRUSHSTROKES HAVE TAKEN SHAPE.

MORE POPS OF POPPY TO COME, IN THE FORM OF INDIAN BLOCK PRINTS BELOW:

BOHEMIANS: LOOK WHAT SHE MADE FOR US

WE FIRST MET ANTOINETTE HERE, WHERE WE COVETED HER AMAZING CANVAS WRAPPED BOX CLUTCH FOR CHRISTMAS. LUCKY US, SHE HAS MOVED TO LONDON, SO OF COURSE WE HAD HER ROUND FOR DINS CHEZ THE HIPPIE HOUSE. 

WE'D BEEN TALKING FOR AGES ABOUT COLLABORATING, AND SO AFTER A LONG SESSION, WE PUSHED HER INTO A TAXI HOME WITH AN ARMLOAD OF SILK TO TAKE TO THE STUDIO TO PAINT. 

THE NEXT DAY, OVER A SERIES OF I-PHONE UPDATES, WE STARTED A SERIOUS LOVE AFFAIR. ANT STARTED HERE:

AND ENDED HERE, INCREDIBLE SHEATH OF PAINTED SILK:

LES DETAILS: HUMMINGBIRDS, BOTANICALS AND GESTURES.

AND THEN SHE FOLDED HER UP

IT SEEMS CRIMINAL TO CUT INTO THIS INCREDIBLE CANVAS; BUT WILL SHE NOT MAKE THE MOST SUBLIME ALIX OF BOHEMIA CLOTHING? CANNOT WAIT FOR SOME SCISSOR AND SEWING ACTION ON THIS JEWEL.

BOHEMIANS: NIKKI TAKES TWO

 OUT OF THE NICO JUMPSUIT AND INTO YARDS OF CORAL SHEERNESS, NIKKI WEARS THE ALIX OF BOHEMIA FLEETWOOD DRESS IN PERSIMMON SILK CHIFFON. SHE'S ALL FLAT DANCING SHOES AND CHUNKY NECKLACES AND BEACH HAIR, RIP ROARING AND READY TO GO A LA WEDDING MEXICANA, LUCKY PUPPY. THIS IS THE WAY THE HIPPIES SWAY.

BOHEMIANS: NIKKI MEETS NICO

THATS DARLING NIKKI CURLED UP IN OUR VELVET CHAIR, SPEAKING IN TONGUES WITH HER I-PHONE, ALL WHILE WEARING THE ALIX OF BOHEMIA NICO JUMPSUIT (WE MET NICO HERE) IN PROVENCE NIGHT SOLEADO COTTON. THATS JESUS LAYING BEHIND HER, BECAUSE, IN CASE YOU HAVEN'T HEARD, ITS ALMOST PASQUA. HAPPY EASTER HIPPIES AND HOOLIGANS.
