Through my teenage years, I grew up in the world of fashion and retail. I was fortunate that my modelling career allowed me to travel and work with some wonderful couture names, both locally and overseas. Those years taught this small-town, stableyard girl so much about design, fit, fabric and the way it should ‘fall’ on a body, that I fell in love with the endless possibilities of styling a look. I dress to suit my body, I dress to suit my mood and I feel sheer delight in seeing my clients successfully do the same.

When not working I am facilitating the life journey of my three wonderful kids and two cheeky Yorkshire Terrier ‘kids’. Maybe that sounds too fancy? Parenting is a rollercoaster ride and I am on it, grateful for all the up moments and accepting of the occasional downward challenge. Well, that is my intention at any rate.

For my sanity I spend as much time as I can possibly manage on the trails or at events with my mountain bike. An addictive sport, I am hooked! It has me fit, and there are always new challenges to overcome and be rewarded by. It turns out I am just as excited by new bike tyres as I am with beautiful design. I was an equestrian kid, but now I have discovered mountain bikes.

In summary of myself, here is a quote by Confucius when he said:

“We have two lives, and the second one begins when we realise we only have one.”

My second life has begun and I hope you will join me on my journey.
