Peeps... if you follow my Facebook page Shopping On A Shoestring, you will already be aware of how much I love The Estelle Store. Well the owner, Estelle Michaelides, has gone one step better and has started her own fashion label, Micky In The Van. Proudly designed and made in Melbourne, Australia.
A few weeks ago, on a Tuesday night, 16 October, I was extremely fortunate to be invited to the Micky In The Van VIP Media launch, to view the clothing range. And what can I say? The fabrics, textures, prints and colours are amazing. So much so, that I walked away with three pieces from the collection.
What did I buy? The tangerine Mia-Peplum Jacket, $109, and tanks in Boho Gypsy & Black Poppy, both $59. What else could I have brought? The entire collection really! The Micky In The Van slouch pants have been running out the door for $69. So popular, they have made Oyster Magazine's 'Top 15 Printed Pants' feature! And a 'signature' of the Micky In The Van label are antlers (as pictured) which feature on the Crop Bomber Jacket, available for $95 and oh so cute.
So what's next for this designer label? I can happily report that Estelle is working on a few new pieces and I was lucky enough to see some samples of potential fabric she is planning to use. If she does indeed use the fabric she showed me to create a new version of the fabulous slouch pant, I do know one thing is for sure ...they will be making their way into my wardrobe too!
The Estelle Store is located at 382 Smith Street, Collingwood, Melbourne, Australia, and the Micky In The Van collection ranges from $59 to $109 (which if you ask me, is an absolute steal for designer clothing). Orders can be made online or via the telephone and postage is free. Yes, that's correct ...FREE.
Oh Micky In The Van ...how you complete me! Love love LOVE xx
