What What? Here's what's up!

We're feeling pretty perky over here lately. Not sure if it's because we've finally got some rain around Tel Aviv way, or maybe it's because we're in a WICKED shop now. Check out www.plazmalab.com/main and you'll see what we mean.

Also been busy working on some knock-your-socks-off style remade vintage bits'n'pieces. Here's a little eye-candy for you...

Set right up!

Alright, so I've got to admit, this post is more for my "East of the Atlantic" friends, but it's great and exciting none the less. We've been invited to show at a local designer's market this week! Thursday the 25th, and Friday the 26th, we'll be at Dizengoff center in Tel Aviv at the designers' market on the lower level of Dizengoff center. Not only that, but we've been invited as special guests to be featured as one of Tel Aviv's hot new up-and-coming designers!!

So come by and visit, we'll be happy to see you, I promise!

Satellite Dog

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-zup? I've been too busy to post lately, but I've got a good reason... a little fuzzy good reason and his name is Noodle! Shai & I adopted this little munchkin a couple of weeks ago, and today he's back from the vet (we had him neutered) and he looks like a Satellite dish! Aw, poor thing. Lots of stuff going on with new designs, but I'll post about that in a few days. Meanwhile, bask in the warm glow of cuteness of my poor little pup!

moon, music, nitzanim

So a couple of weeks ago, Shai and I finally got out of the house and spent the night down at Nitzanim beach where there was a HUGE trance party all night. Fabulous time, but by 5am I was starting to feel a little old for these all-night parties. No matter, it was great seeing Skazi and Infected live, and Balkan beat box was surprisingly awesome, especially their video-art. Now just to find the time to get to the beach during the day... I need a tan

Sultry summer days

I absolutely love summer days when I can sleep late, hang out on the balcony and just chill. Not that it happens very often, but maybe that's why I love it so much. Shai & I have been working hard on making our place look nice and homey. For starters, we went out and picked up some plants a few weeks ago to try and spruce up the balcony. I love the colours of the flowers we picked up, very cheery. I think I'll take my coffee outside and stare at the pretty colours awhile... because I can :)

Slacker much?

OMG it's hot in here! Seriously, I have to get used to Israeli summers. It's only mid-June and already it's at LEAST 30*C every day (that's 86*F for all you Americans out there). Usually more. Anyway, I shouldn't complain, I've escaped the nastiness of Canadian winters!!!
Anyway, things have been going pretty well, slow and steady as they say. Shai & I are working together to get the rest of our designs finished by the end of June, so that we can start pushing forward and approaching stores! We've already had some interest from one or two places, and we may even be able to do a booth at the Designer's market in Dizengoff center by September. Keep your fingers crossed for us!
As you can see, I've been into experimenting lately, what do you think of the shoes? They're wicked vintage pieces that I picked up and made fabulous. Next step is going to be SPARKLY!!! Can't wait. My lust for fabulous shoes is constantly growing... this could be a problem guys...

weddings and wonderment

Well hello there! That's right I'm still living on this planet, I've just been hibernating for the past month and a half! Let's see, what's new? First, Shai & I moved apartments, which means new STUDIO space!! I actually have space to cut fabric!! (Okay, but still not enough) Ha ha, and besides that his sister got married a couple of weeks ago, which means I had to (of course) make a fabulous dress to wear. Though I don't have any decent photos of it, I'll be sure to get some soon. With the move & everything we've been really slacking with shooting the new stuff. Ooh, and Shai & I also made him a fabulous leather tie!! Are you jealous? For all you animal lovers out there, you needn't worry, the tie was made from 100% repurposed vintage leather, and it's 100% awesome! BUT, for now, here are some shots of other wicked stuff we've been working on. I'm in love with these slouchy shirts, they're PERFECT for Israeli summers, they're nice and airy. Ooh, and don't tell, but the blue denim bag is a birthday present for my brother. I'll let you know if he likes it. Ciao for now chiquitas!
