Introducing our 'Sailboat Red'





Hello hello i thought i would show you a lil more of our latest 'Sailboat Red' Kepp Jones hat over here! 

Originally i had a different colour scheme planned but as the stitching went on, things changed + i'm over the moon with how she turned out! So nautically gorgeous!! Disappointed with myself for not making an extra medium for moi!! 

But let me tell you a lil more about 'Sailboat Red' + where she derived from :: 
Ezra was a man of the water + therefore dressed accordingly when he boarded his yacht! White trousers, boat shoes + a sweater around his neck were his staples...yes he was definitely the dapper chap! 
This Nautical inspired number, was made mostly from Ezra's trouser - which lean toward the cooler shade of white ... but has the most delectable red brim (underside too) + flap. A rare vintage fabric handcrafted button in the most gorgeous washed out red adorned with chaps riding bikes + florals(oddly fantabulous!). 'Sailboat Red' is a splendid lil accessory that can be worn with Nautical stripes, a summery skirt or high waisted denim shorts, any which way.... this lil cap i'm sure will turn some noggins!! 
NB:: Buttons may vary! 

I have a Small, Medium + Large available in our Etsy boutique, so don't dillydally if she catches your eye! (oh + there are more snapshots over there too)

And yes i have been taking photo's of a different noggin + her name is Jenny! She is a friend, quite the talented abstract painter + lets not forget...a natural beauty! So i thought it might be a great idea to show Sparky wares on someone who doesn't have long, dark curly hair + as it turned out...it was actually really fun not to take photos of my own head...so there could be some more Sparky models to come! 

 ps:: the last photo i decided to name 'Just Jenny' as well...its simply just her!

Meet SummerSnowflake...

Oh this lil beauty had been in my ideas notebook for a while + i had stumbled on the most topnotch trousers + lining to do the job! 
An enjoyable read :: Hilary was quite the particular woman. She always looked well maintained, hair neat, ironed outfits + owned her very own sailboat. A pair of her beautiful quality white trousers were snipped + stitched in a unique way, to show their past...note :: her ironed creases may still be seen!! This light coloured number aptly named 'Summer Snowflake' is just that, a perfect character for summery days on the beach or on a cool winters day wearing your cozy grey woollen sweater. The interior is the most exquisite french vintage floral cotton, whilst the Paloma grey unique flap + big white button on the outter, matches the underside of the brim! So fancy, gorgeous + particular...just like Hilary!
There is one lil special 'SummerSnowflake' in the shoppe
