Colourful & versatile.

Sleek & futuristic.


Classic & comfortable.

Baby Busy ....

Well it's been a month since my last post ...... & what a month, I thought customers were demanding !
Motherhood is certainly an extra full time vocation especially with a newborn......
I am really hoping that things start to get a bit more achieveable in the weeks to come, with Mikey reaching 6 weeks old today......
I am really starting to miss my time in the shop & am so looking forward to opening up again sometime this month.......
HASTA LUEGO xxx
