Blondie's Twisted Tea Room adventures

Cyanide Kiss collaborated with the fantastic Danniella Jaine on her recent photoshoot.

Taking place in the gorgeous setting of Blondies Twisted Tea Room's in sunny Stoke-On-Trent.

Danniella used the stunning backdrop to showcase Cyanide Kiss dresses alongside Roxie Sweetheart

jewellery, a brand that we've collaborated with a few times now on photoshoots! 

Her gorgeously sweet jewellery just sits so well with our dresses! 

Modelling for Danniella's shoot were Victoria Thomas (pink-haired lady!) and Tini Von Doom (red hair). The full shoot can be found over at our facebook page and all dresses can be found in our Etsy shop! And make sure you stop by the photographer, models and Roxie Sweetheart's page to check out more of their work!

Galaxy purses !

Cosmic joy.

I've been meaning to try this for a while, and had the frames ready, but after making the Galaxy dress a while back for Beki, I had some bits of fabric left after cutting out the pattern, and thought these would make great purses! Really happy with the result, the print is captured so well in this format!

So, I made some nebula print purses ! The pictures below are the same purse, back and front views. Something I love about this fabric is the colours. The reds and blues and purples all swirling together to create this lovely print! It could be a great purse, or maybe a glasses case, pencil case!
The purse is for sale on my Etsy page here !

Here's a little snap of the inside with Cyanide Kiss label:

Whilst I was making the Galaxy purse, I also made a handbag and a mini purse from the extra fabric for a friend's birthday, much different to my usual style as it wasn't for Cyanide Kiss, but a present, but I think it will be her cup of tea!

Catwalk shows, blog and magazine reviews!

Galaxy dress

On of my fave commissioned, well half commissioned! I made this one for a friend for her birthday, love it so much!! The Galaxy dress!!! Made from a nebula print fabric, in my classic 50's halterneck shape!

A close up of the gorgeous fabric!

Unicorns, Kittys, and Ponies!

Well, I took a little time out to get married, and swan off on honeymoon for a couple of weeks, but now I'm back with lots of fresh new ideas and styles ready to launch soon!!

But until then, here's a few shots from a great couple of shoots I did recently with the lovely ladies from Moda Alt management! 

The shoot was split into two sections, with a studio shoot of the new Pony dress, and an outdoor shoot featuring the Hello Kitty dress and Unicorn dress! The team for both shoots consisted of:

Jas Stephenson- photographer

Amphetamin -modelling

Saph - retouching

With two great make up artists working with us to perfect the images .On the pony dress shoot (above and below) we had the fantasticly talented Daneka Dunne who also did an amazing job of my bridal make up, you should all check out her page if you're looking for a make up artist! We've worked together on a few shoots now always with gorgeous results!

 And for the outdoor shots, Ailsa Caldwell did a great job..check out those eyes! (below)
Great to work with Ailsa for the first time.
