The birth of Katie’s second son was the final straw. She had to create her own online children’s fashion store, and she had to do it now. Katie was no longer willing to go through the frustration of trying to find the ideal clothes, toys and accessories for her two sons. Where’s all of the boy’s stuff?
That’s when I Want Fabulous! was born.
Through establishing I Want Fabulous! Katie discovered a knack for children’s fashion - and being “Mum” to two young boys inspired a particular flair for boy’s fashion. Over time, Katie’s vision for her business evolved, and her focus on boys fashion and accessories deepened.
I Want Fabulous! has been transformed in line with Katie’s vision, and has now become About A Boy.
Katie’s trademark flair for finding cool boy’s products is equalled only by her passion for her work. Well, that and her ability to talk the ear off anyone who will listen once she gets started talking about boy’s fashion!
When she isn’t working, you might find Katie sipping an iced coffee whilst hanging out with her family. Zipping around the netball court is one of Katie’s favourite pastimes. She has a secret love of Grey’s Anatomy and is sometimes fuelled by delicious creations from her local gourmet burger bar.
Katie loves to spoil her customers, and About A Boy shoppers enjoy first class customer service time after time. Her personal touch is what Katie and About A Boy have become known for.
“I hope you love About A Boy as much as I do – happy shopping!”
