ello monki!

I just sat down to have a little whinge about the fact that it is time to put away my trusty espadrilles until next year. I have been battling on ignoring the soggy toes but I think today's torrential downpour finally has me beaten. That and the fact that the funny espadrille in decay smell is beginning to get a little embarrassing...Hmmm, maybe they should just go in the bin.

So I was going to...

Mmmmmmmmm

I am a lucky girl. I have just had my first taste of Creighton's Chocolate. I think this might be the start of a long and happy relationship!

Creighton's Chocolateriemake the best chocolate. They have all kinds of different things- lollipops, edible gifts and fancy boxed chocolates. They are hand-made in house using traditional methods but use quirky designs and flavors. It looks and tastes...

little mistress

The last couple of weeks have been very unproductive. Everytime I've sat down to blog, I've been disctracted by one of the following:

The sudden urgent need to make a cup of tea and eat jaffas.
Doris (the cat) head butting my hand and walking on the keyboard until I give up.
The realisation that my hair is past the dry shampoo stage and it really does need a proper wash. Now.
A growing obsession...

my website is ready... but i'm not quite!

I've just finished making the first version of my website! Have a look www.foxandfeather.co.uk. The only problem is I have no stock...and won't have for a while yet! I can't afford to invest in the stock until I have a bricks and mortar store and can leave my current job and actually 100% focus myself. Anyway, you can join the mailing list online and I'll let you know as soon as I start trading....

make me finish it!

I have been so lazy. For Christmas (!) I was given the best ever present. It is an Emily Peacock needlepoint kit for a beautiful 'KISS' cushion.

But I am so SLOW I am not even half way through making it. Oops. I thought that maybe if I wrote about it, I might guilt trip myself into being a little bit more dedicated. I actually got the 'HUG' kit too, but can't even begin to imagine when I might get...

I want to be little and I want to wear this!

This has to be the most beautiful coat ever! Please can I be little again? I just want to wear it... Why isn't grown-ups fashion as cute?

This is why I love Etsy, where else would you stumble across something like this?

pure and orelia

It was Pure London (the fashion buying show) at the weekend. I spent Friday and Saturday building the stand I had designed for the company I currently work with (yes they will still remain nameless...) and then left before the show opened on Sunday. So I missed all the actual fun. As usual. I did manage to have a quick run around pre-official opening and remembered that I hadn't bought anything...

has anyone shopped here? tell me all about it...

Forever21 has just opened in London. I've not been to the store yet, but by all reports it's going to be taking on the likes of H&M for bargain fashion finds. The jeans look pretty decent on their website, but has anyone tried them on? They are definately cheap. Maybe not a good sign... Anyway it's a Californian company, selling Korean trends. Interesting newcomer to the UK fast retailing race!?

is it too late to mention festivals?

It seems that you can't go to a festival anymore without something painted on your face and/or something funny on your head. So, as I'm still not convinced about the merits of painting on your face, I am wholeheartedly supporting the 'wearing something on your head that you probably wouldn't do under any other circumstances' crew.

My favourites are:

Hoods!

I will be stocking these merrimakinghoods...

She has 2 new ones up for sale at the moment and does custom orders too. I won't try to explain about the dolls, she can do that far better then me. Here is one she made recently...

something nice to put some nice things in

Today I just want to share this amazing leather clutch/folder/portfolio with you. It is so beautiful I won't bore you with any of my usual ramblings. Now all I need is an important meeting to go to and I'll have an excuse to buy it... oh and it's only £55 (it's from ASOS, but no-one will ever know)!
