Hello all!
Long time I know, but in that time I have been having an excellent time keeping busy with work, Christmas/Hanukkah lead up, and visiting friends new shops. I know people opening shops is a tad crazy but that's the way I tend to like people.
The first shop opening was my favourite, truly British shirt brands, second shop opening on the Kings Road : http://www.blaqua.net/ It was a fab night, their son ( well one half of Blaqua, Debbie and Simon, not Phillip) Luke was playing some excellent Northern Soul, and classic Rhythm and blues. One of the things I love about Blaqua is the British eccentricness, and a good example of this are their cufflinks.
Creepy but beautiful.
Another shop I visited today, but went to opening a few weeks ago was Here today Here tomorrow. http://heretodayheretomorrowblog.wordpress.com/
This is a friend from University, Julia Crew who has focused her designs on ethical fashion, in particular men's bags. I love her designs, (not in a biased way) and the creativity with recycling leather jackets, but making something tasteful and really desirable!
If I could buy anything for a certain someone this Christmas it would be one of these bags and I'm not just saying that.
Anyways enjoy, and if you happen to visit why not pop into Dalston superstore for lunch. I've only been in the evening but the other day I went for brunch and it was super yummy!

Other than that I've started designing and sourcing my own range of accessories so, hopefully, keep your eyes peeled for the new year, fingers cross everything goes smoothly I will have a completed range in the shops! Exciting and quite frightening : )
Enjoy the weather, and eat lots of xmas cookies and of course Mulled wine (drink aware) : )
