Accessories include detached hoods, shawls, infinity scarves, regular scarves leg warmers, arm warmers, bandanas, headbands, and belts.

They were my first original design with a new chic and urban concept. They are very versatile and can be worn on pretty much any occasion. They are really fun to wear and always get a lot of compliments. I really try to have a wide variety of colors and patterns so everyone can find on that fits their personality!

Name: Sarah Tedford

Business: Ladybird Poppy

When were you first inspired to design? I was 15 years old when I began working for a floral shop and greenhouse. The designers always inspired me to design. After being consistently constant in art class from 2nd grade on, I knew I wanted to do something creative, but didn’t figure it out until I was inspired at the age of 15 while working at Castle Pines Florist. The designers there encouraged me to design, saying I had a good eye for it. I didn’t believe them, but as time went on, others around me encouraged me to keep designing and one thing led to the next.

What will you be showing at Fashion Denver’s Holiday Market? I have ornaments that I design dried floral and other fun accents (such as feathers) into. Also, centerpieces that are dried floral or have succulents/airplants on them so they are sure to last through the holiday season. Terrariums will be available, as well. These are all incredible ways to add some fashion and design to your home. They are excellent gifts, as well.
