Pyrus & Petit Bateau in the Press

Some press girls have been hard at work. Petit Bateau and Pyrus are both featured in this months ( May ) edition of British Vogue while Petit Bateau was also featured a few weeks back in Stella Magazine ( Sunday Telegraph)

The Jungle Silk Crepe dress in the May edition of British Vogue. Also love the Day Birger Necklace. Might have to click onto Net a Porter for a quick look.

The other great thing about the Stella feature is it styles the top with a slick blazer a bit like the one I have in  from East by East West and a leather tote by Sophie Hulme who`s bags  are to die for. And so much more original than the obvious designer " It" bag brands such as Mulberry. Not that I am slagging off Mulberry. I love there bags but like Barbour its all gone a bit emperors new clothes for my liking.

More Pink

Oh god damn it I knew this would happen. I've found more pink inspiration. This time in the form of avid Armor Lux wearer, Ines de la Fressange. More of her later.

Easter Egg Hunt /Windows


A quick message to say that the annual Foss Street Easter Egg Hunt will take place this Saturday 7th April from 10.00am. Forms Are available at Simon Drew (next door) and The Canvas Factory. The competition  closes at 3.00pm with a massive Easter egg give away taking place just after. As usual Simon Drew is the resident MC and will be dishing out the prizes. My tip is to do the kids competition and leave the adults version as its all a bit highbrow, useless for a bimbo like me.

Also here are the pom poms in my window in various shades of Aqua. Easter fun and frills

Think Pink

I am going through a slightly strange girly pink phase at the moment. I blame it on the blossom. I am even thinking about getting a pink sofa. I did try pink out once on one of my bedroom walls (Farrow and Balls pink ground) but annoyingly it didn't work and ended up looking like an old folks home. Here are my favourite pink looks.

The End. I couldnt do a post on pink and not include the Dame BC. 

Blossom and Pazuki Prints

There is some lovely blossom in the park at the moment. I love the first stages of spring when the air and light change, petals are dusted along the streets and people start smiling again. It all seems to happen overnight. Someone who im guessing has the same feeling is Pookie at Pazuki who has produced some wicked images on her silk and cotton scarves for SS 12.

In-Store Action

It`s looking pretty bright and colourful in Starburst at the moment and luckily for us we had a fantastic delivery from Christophe Sauvat and Marilyn Moore which provided a blast of colour (which also coincided nicely with the spring sunshine)
