My fabulous Auntie is turning 60 and to celebrate she is throwing a 60's themed party tomorrow night. I was hoping on my little holiday I would have some free time to work on a new collection of brooches, but instead I have had some delighfully busy days searching the City for costumes, wigs, fabric and balloons. I've created a little surprise for the birthday girl using a whole lot of fabric and paint (pictures to come) and have adored searching through old photos for inspiration for my costume. I really am a little bit 60's love child.
As a seached for inspiration I stumbled across one of my very favourite people from the 60's, Andy Warhol and his muse Edie Sedgwick.
Edie's personal style is just so fascinating and unique... Black tights, smoky eye shadow and beautiful chandelier earrings, I just couldn't resist putting my own spin on Edie's classic 'It girl' outfit for tomorrow night's party.
So I'm ready to go with a little blond wig, some fake eye lashes and a pair of fabulous earrings. I've even found a ready made Andy Warhol to come with me! Can't wait! Will have photos to share on Sunday. I best be off to finish the decorations and put the finishing touches on my little back dress.
Much love and flower power..
