I recently shared the story behind my name Estelle. It is the story of my grandmother and the meaning of her name. It is french for star. When Frank Sinatra sings his version of ‘Fly me to the moon’ I hear the feeling of falling in love as he ‘plays among the stars’. I often have a similar feeling, but not just with one person. I feel it during the moments I share with all the interesting different people who pop into my life in unexpected ways.

`It’s the feeling I got when I was gifted this stunning jacket covered in stars, from Trelise Cooper and her team. It’s in the moments I share with people like Ray, a photographer from Fiji who had sailed a boat over to New Zealand and after being at sea for 18 days, chose to spend the day exploring the cities backdrops, pushing me out of my comfort zone to think imaginatively about myself and artistically about my environment.

I flew to the moon this day, wrapped in my Eye of the Biker Jacket from Cooper and played in the stars with my friend Ray.

Fly me to the moon, let me play among the stars

Let me see what spring is like on A-Jupiter and Mars

In other words, hold my hand, in other words, baby, kiss me

Fill my heart with song and let me sing for ever more

You are all I long for

All I worship and adore

In other words, please be true

In other words, I love you

Fill my heart with song, let me sing for ever more

You are all I long for, all I worship and adore

In other words, please be true

In other words, I love you

Thank you Trelise Cooper and the Cooper ladies – Eye of the Biker Jacket $429.
