Sneak Preview of New Website Pics!

A few sundays ago we had a little photo shoot in the bush and the results are some very Canadian looking autumn pics for the new website! Headmistress will be launching an all-new website at the end of November, which is pretty exciting news if you ask me! The new website will not only feature more designs, but will also have a shopping cart feature so all items can be bought online- I know, pretty big news!
A big thanks goes out to my homegirls Laura, Emily and Margaret for graciously agreeing to brave the elements for these shots!

OH Canada

Well we made it back to Canada safe and sound and since I've been back, I've been getting very inspired to try some new things and more specifically, some new textures! From tweed to lace to velvet to paisley- I've been trying it all and boy is it exciting! I'd love to hear some feedback here so holler with any thoughts that you have.


asymmetrical black lace=pretty, pretty good.

potential spring/summer 2010 collection contributor- but isn't the lace pretty?

black lace ON tweed, seriously lace=good, tweed=good, lace+tweed=it doesn't get any better

Hand-dyed lace with accent feathers anyone?

fall-ish paisley/flower prints

jewel-tones velvet!!

how about some tweed?

here we've got some vintage brocade (left) and some metallic silvery-black stuff too (right)!

Look out Canada- here we come!

So the exciting news around here is that I'm heading back to my home and native land- Canada! I'll be continuing on with all things feathered and hope to expand the business some more. In honour of our move back, here are some photos of some new styles as well as some photos from last weekend's Thames Festival in London and some of everday regular life around here. As always, if you'd like to place an order, send me and email (headmistressaccessories@gmail.com). Thanks for stopping by!
