I think I am going to start a "Fashion Forward" section which features new budding artists who I come across in my work and travels. The first edition spotlights two hat makers. I'm huge into hats right now. They're classy, elegant, and full of style. This is one happy camper who is excited to see them make a mainstream comeback.
Designer Cari Bourquin lives in San Luis Obispo, CA on an organic farm where she grows produce and is a milliner (fancy insider term for hatmaker). She is also branching out into headband pieces. I picked a white sequin and feather one up from her today. Her collection can be found at http://www.langstonbourquin.com/

Lead designer Belle is based out of Seattle and started her career in theatre costume design. Her pieces are vintage inspired (and use vintage materials). I am so enamored with her creativity. And of course love anyone who is from my home in the PacNW.
