MiseducatedShop

My name is Amber Renée Fawn, and I'm an artist that sings.

My love for fashion and design started in college where I studied art, news/editorial, and visual communications. These passions led me to travel, and I eventually found myself living in Japan to study Japanese language and culture, and to create. This lead my brain to be filled with so many ideas it was like a capsule machine filled to the brim with glittering ornaments and ideas just waiting for the dial to be turned.

I've had the opportunity to design and for some amazing companies such as Tokyolux, Hasbro, and Stilla, but my personal work always felt like it was sitting on a curio shelf. So, I combined my love for 80s nostalgia and pop art to bring my own world of creations to life. I opened this shop in 2017 while on a sunny vacation in California touring Melrose with my best friend. There was something missing for me that I knew I had to create.

Recently, I've also put my creativity and passion for helping others into my book, the "Lucky Girl Syndrome Guidebook". As I once only used my award-winning blog to do, I share tips and advice for finding your own style, developing a positive mindset, and living your best life.

So, go ahead and turn the dial on that capsule machine! I invite you to explore my work and shop and find your next treasure. Please visit often, new surprises await you!

Thrift Core and Reducing Waste

I am now happy to announce that my designs are not only nostalgic and limited, I also offer one-of-a-kind pieces that you will not see anyone else wearing or holding. I scour thrift stores to find objects that still have a beautiful soul but have been tossed to the wayside. In this era of constant consumption and production it is extremely beneficial to reuse, recreate, and utilize pieces that have so much life to give. In this way I feel I am also giving back.

We are at a place where the over-production of items begins to feel out of hand and the appreciation of once-loved pieces are more cherished than the brand new. It feels good to wear something that is one-of-a-kind and yet has not created more waste or loss of energy and resources. It feels good to know this is yours and yours alone.

In Japan we call this animism, which means all objects have a soul. I love the opportunity to search high and low for objects with a soul that speaks to me so that I can use them to create something new for you to appreciate and love once again. Thank you for the opportunity; I just know you'll find your next favorite piece in my shop.
