Hi Fabulous Friends,
My name is April Fruits (yep, like bananas and apples). Well, I am a married (hence the Mrs.), 30-something years old, and an English Bulldog mom who is just trying to live a life full of fabulous fun. I enjoy retro and quirky fashion. On top of that, I consider myself to be thrifty, environment conscious, an artist, a sewer, skincare savvy and someone interested in female health and wellness. All of which you can find here on my blog which I decided to start after years of saying I would. One swift jump off that cliff and here I am! I’m ready to share my opinions and style finds for all those interested.
Lets see… other things you may want to know…
I would describe myself as a thrift-o-holic which means that I love going to thrift stores to hunt for the very best vintage and clothing gems. I will post a lot about that here on this website and show you how I incorporate my vintage finds into my modern/quirky aesthetic. You’ll also find me chatting about ways to clean and repair vintage and thrifted pieces since that kind of goes hand in hand with the shopping. I have a background in costume design, so I am not totally inexperienced in this area, but there is still a lot of trial and error, mistakes, and (some) victories. It comes with the territory I suppose. See more on my YouTube channel!
I have a full-time job. I work in the fashion footwear industry for a very popular brand that I am sure you all have heard of called UGG! I LOVE my job. It is a fun company to work for with many amazing people and it feels like one big, happy fabulous family. I am also the brand specialist on QVC for Koolaburra by UGG, our cool sister brand. These are two AMAZING brands that I am really passionate about. You’ll see and hear a lot about them here and on my IG.
Take a look around and be sure to come say hello on my IG!
