Daniel(ink) 'get it on'..



Have you noticed how some people are so photogenic it's impossible to take a bad photo of them e.g. dynamic father and son duo above! When a market stall is abuzz while other stalls are packing up you know there has to be something really special going on. We had the pleasure of meeting Daniel Pavlovic and his father on Sunday at the Beaufort St. Art Market. A t-shirt business that involves the whole family with Daniel, who was born with cerebral palsy, drawing the designs, sister Nathalie and dad Ivan helping with administration and general business management and his grandmother hand-sewing the tags. Did I mention 10% of sales go to The Centre for Cerebral Palsy and for this year a 50% of sales collaboration with SIDS and Kids, so cool!


I'm a huge fan of the t-shirt, you can dress it up with a shirt and jacket or go casual in a cardi and jeans. I'm in star company here with many celebs wearing Daniels designs. J'adore the two I brought below and if you take a closer look at the doggy design on the left.. can you spot the angel? We need a little angel love in our family right now! Check out Daniel's website here and his designs here.. an inspiring young man et famille! Happy Wednesday, take care and stay safe.. p.s. did you notice you can order on-line :)

  5. They are an inspiring family.
    And I might even be tempted against my natural instincts towards the cat and wear the angel doggie tee!
