INTERVIEW WITH DY




MONDAY, OCTOBER 24, 2011

GUEST BLOGGER - SAMMI BURLEY aka. CHASE.DAKOTA


EARLIER THIS WEEK WE HAD A FEW WORDS WITH JEWELLERY DESIGNER 
EXTRAORDINARE - SAMMI BURLEY of 
CHASE.DAKOTA

WHAT GOT YOU INTO JEWELLERY DESIGN? 
I NEVER WORE MUCH JEWELLERY GROWING UP... MAINLY BECAUSE I COULDN'T FIND ANY PIECES THAT REFLECTED MY STYLE (AND PRICE RANGE). I'VE ALWAYS BEEN CREATIVE, SO I STARTED WITH SOME DIY'S FOR MYSELF, AND THEN PEOPLE STARTED ASKING ME TO MAKE THEM SOME PIECES... SO I GUESS IT JUST GREW FROM THERE

WHAT'S PLAYING ON YOUR IPOD?
ALORS ON DANSE BY STROMAE

MOST CHERISHED PIECE OF JEWELLERY?
A SMALL DIAMOND RING MY BOYFRIEND GAVE ME ON OUR FIRST VALENTINES DAY.

BLOGS YOU FOLLOW RELIGIOUSLY? 
INTERNATIONALLY: FASHIONTOAST, AUSTRALIAN: GARY PEPPER VINTAGE & 4TH AND BLEEKER 

BEST PLACE FOR A BITE TO EAT IN BRISBANE?
THE SMOKE AT NEWFARM

LATTES OR LONGNECKS? 
LATTES.

GIVE US A LOOK AT YOUR MOST FABULOUS CHILDHOOD OUTFIT

WHEN YOU THINK OF MELBOURNE YOU THINK OF...
GOOD FOOD AND GOOD FASHION.

IF YOU COULD DATE A ROCKSTAR, WHO WOULD IT BE? 
KURT COBAIN IF HE WAS STILL ALIVE... HE WAS JUST SO EFFORTLESSLY COOL AND DREAMY IN THE NINETIES.

PLANS FOR TONIGHT? 
FAMILY DINNER.


WE'RE A WEE BIT OBSESSED WITH THE WORK OF SAMMI, HER JEWELLERY LINE CHASE DAKOTA IS LIKE JANIS JOPLIN WITH A SHOT GUN. EDGY AND ACE, EACH PIECE OF HER JEWELLERY IS INTRICATELY UNIQUE, DESIGNED WITH LOVE AND AVAILABLE AT A DISTINCTLY REASONABLE PRICE POINT. ROCK YOUR WAY IN STORE TO DY OR ONLINE AT WWW.DOWNYONDER.COM.AU TO CHECK IT OUT TODAY. XXX
