Boot Bag Sample #2

Here it is! My AMAZING Boot Bag with custom logo in heavy duty black canvas fabric. The design is not quite there yet, and as this is my first big project in my designing career, I want to make it PERFECT!

So I've asked the manufacturer to remove one pocket on the side of the bag, so you know exactly where your iPhone is, double stitch around the pocket to make it look like your back pocket, and put a visible seam on top of the bag. Any other feedback? I'd love to know your opinion!

PA TIps

This week I'm working on my website again. But it's not so much about fashion design as it is about my other great love - ORGANISATION! Yes, I am still working as a PA in a law firm during the day, and am quietly designing my range at night and on the weekend, hence "PA by day, Fashionista by Night". 

So I've now added my top PA Tips to my site - follow the checklist and become an APA, a.ka "Amazing Personal Assistant."

I've also added Tips to Improving YOU for all those non-PA fans from removing clutter to dressing for your body type. Lot's more to come!

Clint & Dancesport

Remember Clint? I mentioned him a few weeks ago - he is the new tailor that my godmother Toni-Maree hired for her business, elaundry. Well, you should see what he's been up to! 

elaundry is sponsoring one of their girls, Lauren, in the regional Dancesport titles at the Greek Club in Southbank. For those who don't know dancesport, might I direct you to Dancing With the Stars! Dancesport is all things ballroom - and the costumes to match are TO DIE FOR!

Clint has designed and created a totally amazing gown for Lauren with feathers, crystals and every embellishment under the sun. She is going to look spectacular on the day. 

Seeing what Clint can do has given me faith that he should be the one to design my range. I'm still thinking about what I should design, but I have a few ideas up my sleeve!

My screen printed shirts and bags have arrived and I'm in love! The chandelier design is so classic. To celebrate, I'm launching a competition on my Facebook page and giving away two shoe bags, a t-shirt, an Ireney.T feather cuff and a couple of cute "Fashionista" badges I had made.

An AMAZING Local Designer Find!

Now that my range is coming together slowly, bit by bit, I've started working on the shopping component of my website where you will be able to shop my Camelia Carlton range. I've also had my radar out the latest few days for fabulous local designer accessories to stock on my site under 'Fabulous Finds'.

The feather cuff above is by Ireney.T - a super fashion college graduate from Brisbane. I'm all about supporting up and coming designers, because I am one myself! If you know any one who would be interested in being stocked on my website, please get in touch!

Until next time,
