Upcycle Affordable Art You Can Wear...by Actress Alice Evans!

Affordable, Custom Luxury by my dear friend, beautiful and famous actress Alice Evans (married to the Welsh "Hunk" actor Ioan Gruffudd)

As I mention a few times throughout my blog, I am not a blogger who has paid advertising (although I am happy to report I am receiving a few thousand hits a day already, almost like the days in 2009 before I stopped!). This post is purely because I adore Alice, a true friend of mine, and my belief in her unique style, fun approach to fashion. AND SHE UPCYCLES. This is exactly the purpose of my blog, merging higher end fashion, with affordable fashion.

While very sick recently, her and her husband, the very well known (and equally handsome) Ioan Gruffudd, have been there for me. I am sure you know them from their fantastic work in television and film. They are gorgeous too. While I have a lot of "celebrity" friends, these two even offered to take my mum to dinner while I was in the hospital. And visit me. How classy is that?

As I begin to re-blog, I want to introduce her latest project, something I am immensely proud of her for.

Alice is an actress, obviously. But in her spare time she also is an artist (in every sense of the word). As such, her creativity is endless, so she has begun to customize clutches (and often smaller handbags) with little jewels, vintage broaches, and even can make a bag just for you. AND SEE MY CHANEL-LIKE ring? HERS.

My Collection (two black clutches and a set of rings)

Again, she has ALL types of options, my clutches (one is my mums) are black, and I asked for a very chic but bag with "bling". I love it since I wear a lot of black, and as you know, dress fairly simple.

These rings come in black or white, and she I am sure will have more




Please check out her Instagram and Etsy. Again, this is NOT an advertisement. This is a friend, sharing her happiness and excitement of her friend's success and venture ONLY.

These are neat bags. A bit much for me, but I see some of her others are more simple. The rings are my style. Thanks for the heads up.
