THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

''Life gives us more challenges than we expected, although with each others and universal help, we will all get there during the journey… our guides are with us in spirit… thank God, Life and Love, that our travels keep us united and connected” - adapted by Jenny Lyn Walker.

…from a quote so aptly said by Sister Euphrasie Barbier upon setting up the establishment in New Plymouth –the Foundation of Sacred Heart.“New Plymouth is giving us more trouble than we ever expected but never mind with God's help, we'll win in the end ... our Sisters are with us in spirit ... thank God that our trials keep us united.''

Art and Fashion land at the Waterfront, September 8, 2011. 

Super human sized Fantail flew into the waterfront today. Arriving in a concrete jungle, the bird flits joyfully around, putting on a fantastic feather fluffing performance. Sipping on a cup of coffee, flitting from swing to climbing frame to spinning wheel in it’s playground of life. Looking for a place to rest, it spots an amazing nature inspired Brierley-Millman Cypress sculpture. There has been only one photo taken that was able to capture the bird – paused - before flying off again, away from the Waterfront before the main business of the day had even started.  Anyone who spotted this rare breed, could they please forward photographs to the wildlife and nature appreciation society as well as myself. Scoop article here!

Find Yourself @ YBe Home!

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

Suddenly You Find Yourself alone, moved, changed, in a different situation… and You Find Yourself! - Jenny Lyn Walker.

Have you ever felt like this?

·         I don’t know what to put on this morning…

·         What should I wear today to make me feel happy, confident, in control of my life?

·         I can’t find clothes that really fit me or in the style/colour/fabric that I want…

·         What should I wear to that event? Everything in my wardrobe has had its day and the only one I want to wear I wore last evening out!

·         I don’t feel that good in this outfit, but oh well I don’t know what else to wear…

 

… Come to see me and I will help you Find Yourself again! Making the clothes to fit You in Your style that call out to You to wear them!!

Unique styles reflective of the Love for Life, Clothes, Self and for Feeling Good! Helping You Be Your best and true self. Finding Yourself & Expression through Your clothes!

YBe & JLW inspiration & journey page… change of state, movement, finding Yourself, manifesting a state of BE-ing: I Am Here, Find Me, Find Yourself, Be found! YBe a spectator when You can just join in, participate in Your life! Y Me?! Y Be?! Your Beat!

YBe FASHION:

·         Jenny Lyn Walker is me, the designer, the focus is on one off garments and unique things made to fit You… mostly for special events, weddings, races one off occasion pieces and sculptural art, designer collection pieces. Have a look at some of the conceptual pieces on the website here.

·         The YBe - Just Be everyday wear range for women and men is being expanded and will have a more online presence, where you can order different sizes of set styles. However at most only 5 or 6 of each will be produced so that they still have an exclusive quality about them and you won’t see everybody wearing them, so you will still be able to be individual with what you wear from YBe. Have a look at the Ready to Wear garments on the website here. Then scroll down and see some happy YBe Customers too.

·         YBe -Your Beat! will encompass garments I make specifically for people according to their measurements for helping them to establish a coherent style throughout their wardrobe. Piece by piece. A mixture of my design aesthetic and Your form of expression will be evident through the clothes to help the garments be individually You! Helping to tell Your story through Your clothes, whilst creating styles that suit You and embrace Your body and Your love of clothes and life. Have a look at some commissioned garments here

 

·         Stay Warm! in yummy winter jackets!!!

Been feeling a little under the weather like me? Stay on top of the weather and keep cosy in boiled wool winter jackets, ponchos, wool wrap tops you name it, I will make it for You! See some examples here

·         Consultations for your wardrobe, style, and to get me to design your new garments can be booked in. Half the consultation fee goes towards your garments if you go ahead and order.

·         Book in for an appointment to get Your garment made to fit You! Layer it up for winter and get me to start You on your new wardrobe. Once I have your first pattern and size sorted and I know what you are wanting, I can then make things suitable for you and match things you have previously ordered to make sure there is cohesion between all your garments which makes them so much more versatile and gives You more chance to mix and match and create many different and new looks combined with your existing wardrobe.

·         Contact me: at any time to advise me of what garments you would like and have been dreaming of or even if you are not sure yet. Let’s make a time for a consultation or send me an email to request a quote for an item you would like. jenny@ybe.co.nz
