WE are getting ready for Xmas. Sweewing and having fun!

We love craft and we love to wear nice things. Oh!! We had a lovely time in the Sunny Spain, gave us a boost of energy and we came back to London with new ideas and propositions in our little heads!!!

We have been lately amazed by fascinators and brooches so, why not having both of them at once? We are working in amazing brooches that can be fascinators or other way around.
We like quality and at the moment we are working with a gorgeous pieces of fabric to make those lovely fasbro, as we like to call our brooches fascinators. London has been sunny until recently and we still keep the bright rays of light with us so for this winter we propose Cheerful and Colourful fasbros to cheer up your  lovely coats and hair!!

What is our main inspiration: Happiness translated into bright colours and collage.

Hope you'll enjoy with them.

Here our first one.

As always, you can ask us to customize something specially for you or if you have something special poping out in your head and would like us to make it, just ask and we will quote it for you!

Lots of love!

Sshhhh... Quiet!!


We have been outside of the spotlight for a bit.. I know.. We have been working indoors, stirring and planning, studying and sowing... I might be the new year and all the vibes that have but we are getting more and more into do it yourself, craft it, make it, create, grow it... Yes, we think we better make our own items instead of buying them from big chains, in this way we know we just get the best quality products, accuracy to detail, originality and genuine hand operator, craftsperson who really loves what does, enjoy doing it and live doing that. I'm actually thinking lots lately of the people who work in these big fabrics assembling items or just looking at machines how they do their work, working a crazy amount of hours, getting paid a misery and being completely unhappy with their lives and job.. Not having time to enjoy themselves and their families... Or even worst... Thinking of kids working at a tender age when they must mostly just play.. Yes, these and other thoughts have bring DORADO to the mood of DO IT YOURSELF. I've been lately making up my garden, preparing it after the cold winter to grow veggies and herbs... I've sown some already. I just want to know that what I eat is 100% organic and from top quality with local products not grown thousand of miles away and transported by plane to my city.  I started to cook my own vegan cupcakes with my own recipes and so far they have been quite successful (we are at the point of just family and close friends can try them).. Thinking to open a  tea saloon speak-easy in my area... So far I got my food handler certificated so I'm allowed to cook and sell my products... As you can see, lots of things have been going on... My earrings are there, as always were, and are my main passion and my joy. I continue creating new collections but this time I need to divide the time in between so many other things.... And my last bit... Homemade organic soaps and body creams... Tonight I prepared refreshing sweet orange organic soap and jazmin oil and oat goat milk soap. They can get out of their molds tomorrow.. I'll post a photo for you... In the main time... Here you have some of my muffins (today it was persimmon with porridge and golden syrup)...

I'm rocking them

Whenever I create a new design I always ask myself. Will I wear them?? I only do designs I'd love to wear. I always wear my prototypes to get a real time feedback of what people think about them and I always get people asking me where I got them. Most of the time they say to me my earrings are ulterior different and really original.  I love to rock them!

Traktor and go!

Le première et Tara

We had a great day. Tara agreed to pose and amazingly discover!! She was a model!! That made the shooting more easy than expected. Of course, Izzie was behind the lents, so I knew the shooting would be superb. She is an extra talented photographer, now working at the studio of Mario Testino.


Thanks so much to all of you girls!!!
