It is my absolute favourite time of year. A time when it is still light when we look out of the window at 9pm and the sun is slowly starting to rise as early as 4am. I was lucky enough to discover this the other morning when our dog started barking at a pigeon in...Read More
Affectionately referred to as the bag of the summer, the basket bag has been making a much-welcomed return now for several years. Reminiscent of long summer days picnicking, strolling through fields, picking up supplies at village markets, or perhaps adventuring off on a bicycle to a previously unexplored destination, basket bags are wonderfully romantic and...Read More
Whilst we wouldn’t necessarily class March as a typical month in which to wed, the early months of spring and later weeks of autumn it seems, are growing more and more popular.

They seem to be the two words on everyone’s lips at the moment. Fast fashion. With the recent reports highlighting the state of our planet – and what should happen if we don’t act – the world of fashion has had a rather serious knock too.

Sure, lengthy week-long holidays are not to be sniffed at and days spent sunning ourselves at the beach are up there. But a long weekend city break can really serve...Read More
It sometimes feels as though during the winter months, we find ourselves confined to thick knits, chunky scarfs and bobble hats. With the sun not rising until much later, getting dressed in the dark – unless you’ve prepped what you’re wearing the night before – rarely results in an overly stylish outfit.

An urge to update your wardrobe or renovate your home is a common occurrence in the new year. Perhaps it is the opportunity for rejuvenation or revival which presents itself and to which we inevitably succumb, or those small seeds of spring and summer which begin to plant slowly in our minds. Following the festive...Read More
Although a nation of shoppers, we are also known to be – in some circumstances – a nation of last minute shoppers too.
