I've had a bit of an obsession lately with the willow pattern, but looks like someone else did too. Wish I knew who to credit for this amazing dress. Careful when you sit down!
No need to worry any more if hunger strikes when you're out and about, just eat your clothes! Or the work of South Korean artist Sung Yeonju. Try a delicious dress of tomatoes, eggplant or bananas, or if you're just a little peckish - a mushroom top!
There is also a prawn corset but that one makes me feel a little sick.
It's about time our little man was immortalised on a t-shirt, so here are a couple of new designs for all you french bulldog fans. They are also available in kids and baby sizes and even come as stickers! Available from our redbubble store.
We're now on felt! Creative Monsoon has joined New Zealand handmade site felt.co.nz so we can get our groovy kiwi t shirts and photography out there. Check out our new online store.
I'm so pleased redbubble have finally added childrens clothes to their tshirts! So that means you can now get all your favourite creative monsoon designs - for kids! yeay! Available at our redbubble store.
It's been a while since I designed a t-shirt, but the other day I had the idea of a blank rubik's cube. So here it is - our simplify tee. Available in our redbubble store.
I have to say Im really liking the new way of viewing my tshirts over on redbubble. Gives you a great idea of how they look.
I've got lots of plans for some new tshirt designs, just hope I can find some time to get them done! But managed to get this one finished today - cmyk hearts. On the redbubble site :)
Available as usual through our redbubble page here
Dont worry I didn't forget about New Zealand with our new buttons Ts. But instead of buttons I've gone for cats eye shells. I used to find these a lot one beach walks when I lived in NZ and I think they make a great image.
Again the t-shirt is available for sale in different sizes and colours for $35 via my redbubble page, click here for more.
The Opera House, the Aussie, Uk and Ireland, the US and the heart Button T!

Well it had to be done. Everywhere I look there is a new version of the 'Keep Calm and Carry On' poster. So I made a little t-shirt: Keep calm and carry on making keep calm and carry on posters.
And its available through redbubble starting at only $30! Click here to buy.
This is my first go at Polyvore. I think its a great website where you can put together your own mood boards of fashion and photos. The best bit is if you see something you like there is a link to buy it! I thought Id just test it out and it became dreaming of afternoon tea by creative-monsoon featuring Christian Louboutin shoes It is quite a contentious site though, and I can see why - you are using other people work. But they do put links in for every image used, so people can buy it, as long as everything is credited to its original owner I wouldn't mind people using my images. I think it could be a good little marketing tool.
Last week I mentioned the popularity of Babushka dolls at the moment. Well this just tops it all. If you have a spare $8000 plus dollars lying around you could pick yourself up this new Chanel Matrioshka handbag made from black resin and gold. You'll have to wait until mid May though - damn, would have gone so well with the outfit I was planning on wearing down the pub this evening. Read more on handbag.com
If dark and moody shades of grey aren't your thing this autumn/winter, try a little colour, well, a lot of colour actually.

- Top off your winter look with a great hat, like this one from Sydney designer Baboom.
Now I'm usually the first person the complain when stores start promoting autumn/winter stock when its still the middle of summer. But I have to admit this past weeks constant rain made me realise summer is slowly on its way out. So whats happening with autumn/winter fashion? Well there seem to be two distinct styles, the first, think retro galmour. Black, dark blue or purple and cherry red. Tailored suites and pencil skirts. The femme fatale:
- Add a little knitted French luxury to your wardrobe this winter with a beautiful buttoned scarflette from friedinbutter. Available in a variety of colours including black and red.
- Necklush is made from cut cotton loops by a New York based business. Very unique they make a great change from usual scarfs and can be worn in lots of different ways.
- Try a bit of original vintage glamour, like this stunning dress from my favorite vintage.
- One of my favourites, Gazzu has some beautiful head bands. Try this black and red one, a steal at only US$7.75.
- Pencil skirts are a great look this autumn. New York based designer Soho Mode have a great selection in traditional or more daring fabrics, teamed with fabulous contrasting belts.
- Bonniesknitting uses vintage patterns and fabric to create these gorgeous 1920s style hats. Perfect for topping off that winter retro look.
