So Far, So Good.

We've been busy all week, getting the shop ready for the grand opening on Friday 8th October:


If you are in Bournemouth, do pop along to 864 Christchurch Rd in Pokesdown, between 6pm and 9pm, for drinkies, nibbly bits and you can see what all the fuss is about.

Alongside the leather jewellery and accessory goodness, handstitched by Love From Hetty & Dave, there'll be other British designed and handmade goodies for sale, as well as vintage bits and bobs, and other treats we rather liked and threw into the mix.

Look forward to seeing you then!

Vintage Holiday Goodness

Last week I went on holiday, which is why it was all a bit quiet on here. I didn't go far, just went up the coast with my Sister, to Lyme Regis, for epic walks and scones galore.


It's such a beaut of a town, with adorable little, higgledy piggledy, independent shops and delicious ice cream coloured houses:


We did a massive walk on our first day, along the cliff path from Lyme Regis to Seaton, which took 4 hours and practically crippled us for the following day, but we managed to fit in some ace charity shopping.



We were in Bridport when I snapped this up for a pound, much to my sister's disappointment at not spotting it first:


Then in a sweet little vintage shop in Lyme Regis, called Sublyme (do you see what they did there?!) I got this gorgeous, gorgeous, GORGEOUS 1950's tea dress for a tenner! I've made a couple of alterations to it, and it is up there in my top 5 dresses now. LOVE IT!


Also, after trying on an extremely overpriced Aquascutum quilted jacket in a charity shop the other day, and seeing all the ace equestrian style stuff in Zara, I couldn't resist this scarf...


Perfect for my winter 'Balmoral' look:


Incidentally, amongst other things, picked this little beauty up in Axeminster for a couple of quids:


And to reassure the boy, I hadn't forgotten about him and the cat, I picked up a pebble from the beach to paint of the three of us on the telly:


And a postcard on the back to him and Jacques Cat...


Anyway, that's all for now... blog you laters
