‘It is the month of June,……..

…..the month of leaves and roses,

when pleasant sights salute the eyes, and pleasant scents the noses’. - Nathanial Parker-Willis

June has always been a wonderful month for me. A month of (hopefully) sunshine, my birthday, pre-harvesting holiday and Royal Ascot!
This year, June has been a great month for commissions as things finally look to be opening up for weddings and events this summer.
This Royal Ascot has been a particularly exciting and thrilling one for me with a commission for the lovely Laura being featured in ‘The Sun’, ITV coverage alongside Rachel Hawkins and Rachel Trevor-Morgan and Ascots day 3 highlights! I am still in shock as it is every Milliners dream to see a creation have such success and it is a testament to how stunning Laura looked.
It was a wonderful early birthday present for me preceding a weeks holiday in sunny Devon and returning refreshed and ready to come back to more commissions!

I really enjoyed seeing all the beautiful Millinery and fashion at Royal Ascot and the Queens attendance on the Friday when she was met with a lovely joyous welcome.

I hope you have had a lovely June and have been able to spend more time with friends and family.

I finish this post with another quote that seems all the more apt this year:

‘June is the time for being in the world in new ways, for throwing off the cold and dark spots of life’ - Joan D Chittister

Here’s to more socialising, celebrating and hugging those we love!

Cheers!
