Breast Cancer Awareness Month...
Posted by Emilienne Rebel on
... and what it means to me. I'm really struggling with 'Pink October' this year. My youngest daughter's birthday is the fifth October and it marks a significant point in my life. Firstly, in this month I gave birth to my second beautiful baby girl... all I ever wanted, was to be a mum. I loved every minute of this pregnancy and Lotte was just a dream. My eldest daughter, Olivia, then had just turned three and was just so funny and full of life. The following year, on Lotte's first birthday I had my second dose of chemotherapy following a gruelling five...

Liberty Art Fabrics - Why are Liberty Print Cancer hats & scarves so special?
Posted by Emilienne Rebel on
I'm so proud to offer my Bold Beanies headwear in such beautiful quality Liberty prints. Simple, easy to wear and immaculately constructed cancer beanies, headscarves, head wraps and PICC covers made using these wonderful and uplifting prints from Liberty of London so quintessential British & with quintessential quirkiness.
As one of the best-known department stores in the UK, Liberty London offers a diverse range of products, but one of their staple products & absolute best sellers are their fabrics – specifically their cotton prints. Not surprising, then, is that the founder of Liberty London has his roots in fabric and Liberty has a great tradition and history spanning a period of over 80 years.
In the 1920s, Liberty began to produce miniature floral, paisley & abstract prints that became known as ‘Liberty Prints’ and the rest, as far as I am concerned, is history.
Englishman Arthur Lasenby Liberty began his career as an apprentice for a draper. He then took on a job at Farmer & Roger’s Great Shawl and Cloak Emporium – a position that set him on course of his life’s work. After ten years of work there, learning about textiles & other arts, he decided to branch out and open his own business in 1875, named ‘East India House’ where he solely sold Oriental imports – namely rugs, decorative objects and…fabrics!
In 1875 a small shop opened in Regent Street London called Liberty & Co. This was the dream of an Englishman Arthur Liberty, a man of great vision and artistic skills who until his death in 1917 played a leading part in the growth and achievements of a wonderful department store.
Arthur Liberty spent many years travelling to Eastern parts of the world gaining inspiration for the development of his store and he would bring home beautiful rugs and fabrics from these countries. He involved William Morris and other famous artists of the 19th century in the designing of rugs and materials. Some of these early designs are still used today.

Lisa Inspires Others to Dress Up For Chemo
Posted by Emilienne Rebel on
So happy to see my friend Lisa getting the recognition she deserves for her amazing inspirational attitude to her challenges. A women of such dignity, caring, style and strength, I'm so proud to know her.
"I dress for chemo like I'm on a night out" says Mother-of-four, 39, who found out she had incurable cancer two weeks before birth of her 'miracle' fourth child, says feeling glamorous helps her cope with gruelling treatment.
"A mother-of-four who was told her breast cancer had returned and become incurable just two weeks before the birth of her fourth child has revealed how she always 'glams up' for chemotherapy sessions.
Nurses treating personal trainer Lisa Fry, 39, from Cheltenham have dubbed her the 'most glamorous patient' because she always arrives on the ward in heels and wearing her glad rags.
Lisa already has three sons, Charlie, 14, Marley, 12, and Woody with husband Wayne, and Jagger, her fourth, was born on March 25, 2018.
At 31, Lisa was breastfeeding her third son, Woody, ten, in 2011 when she found a lump in her left breast and was later diagnosed with stage three aggressive breast cancer."
The Lisa Bold Beanie cancer hair loss hat is named after my animal print loving friend:
