The Ginger Fox takes five for Christmas

Happy Holidays dearests.. sorry for the severe lack of new posts on here, but hey it was Christmas. Hope you all had a wonderful day and I hope that all your party plans come to glorious fruition for your upcoming New Years - new decade baby woo.

For a little something different, Ginger Fox goodies can be found at the Oxford St Markets this Saturday 2nd January. So shake off the last of your New Years hangover and come down and say hey :) We will be at the Perth Cultural Centre Markets on Sunday as usual.

The Ginger Fox meets a Perth christmas flash mob

Another scorching Perth weekend down and Christmas is all but here. I spent a bit of time on Sunday dashing from my stall to pick up those last minute pressies, thankfully my darling photographer was there to fill in for me. The city was rather busy, as expected, but I did get to witness a fun unexpected event in the form of a Christmas dance flash mob. Always a fan of a good flash mob (i saw an awesome Zombie one in Leederville that did leave me feeling a little disturbed..I am not a fan of the Zombie regardless of cult status..eek) this one did not disappoint. It started with one brave girl, pictured below in the grey singlet and ruffle skirt, dancing alone with members of the crowd slowly joining her. I always loved that scene in Weeds where they dance to the Michael Franti song so I was very pleased to get to see one in person. I have to say too it was much more heart warming than the normal festive season, spandex leotards and glittered dance troops that perform. Although tis a brave girl to frolic around in bedazzled dance get-up!

Had to interrupt Rachel's shopping to get a pic of her awesome shorts.

Had Gemma stayed a little longer I may have pinched her glasses right off her head. Love em!

Christmas time is here and if your anything like me you have some serious last minute shopping to do. Well we thought we would help out and roll out some affordable vintage and handmade treasures. First up we have a some vintage PJ's in a variety of colours and prints. They were a very lucky find as they are deadstock and hence, unworn and as new. Lets all bring a little vintage spice to the bedroom grrrr.

Fabric covered items handmade for The Ginger Fox - $12

Vintage and vintage inspired fabric bowtie hairclips - $8

Gorgeous pocket mirrors handmade for The Ginger Fox - $8

Another Sunday in the city and boy oh boy was it hot! I saw wide brimmed hats galore, parasols and gleaming white, just sunscreened skin from my little stalls vantage point. I also saw some wonderful summer style, enjoy the pics :)

The Ginger Fox plays catch up on Perth fashion

Here is an assortment of photos of stylin Perth kids that I have collected over the past week or so. I have to apologise to all photographees whose names I forgot (lost my scrap of paper I wrote them on) but feel free to comment and claim yourself if you want :)

Shelby took time away from selling gorgeous handmade cotton items to sketch some worldly wildlife.

What a bright and happy duo

The Ginger Fox goes to Friday night at the Hyde Park Hotel

I left my pre-stall prep work briefly on Friday night to step out and support local Perth bands at the Hyde Park Hotel. It was a pretty impressive line-up over two stages you could say (back of the bar and front of the bar :) I couldn't stay long but I was there long enough to snap some pics of some fun looking people and to watch TV Nation perform a very tight set.

The Ginger Fox loves Megan Isabella illustrations

I have been keeping a close eye on my letter box of late, eagerly awaiting my own personal illustrations from local Perth illustrator, Megan Isabella. Miss Megan creates a myriad of vintage inspired paper doll drawings with swirly hair, rosy cheeks and toddler like cuteness. Earlier this year she started the Paper Doll Project where she created these darling pieces of art from photos submitted by real people. So quick as a whistle I sent my pics off and low and behold, two absolutely adorable paper people arrive in the mail. Not bad I say :)

and here are the original photos.
