But, there will be more arriving! So, look out for these:

 

OH MY! Even more Becksondergaard arrived to us!

Yes, another big delivery arrived for us, of some more new Becksondergaard!

We are a big fan of their products. Now we are bombarded (in a good way) with many many of their scarves, and some of their tote bags too. It's all very very exciting indeed.


So here is a question/s for you.... 

 Which one is going to be your next scarf? 

And, What do you think of the new totes? 

A Becksondergaard scarf is a definite need for a womens outfit....

To be honest.. one for each outfit is a need, in our opinion. 
Can't have too many nice scarves?

With their love for colours and Scandinavian simplicity Becksondergaard gives a playful twist to their scarves, with their well thought out colour palettes and bold prints.

A bold scarf like one of these can change a simple outfit so easily, into something that bit more eye catching. Easy Peasy.

MATT & NAT: Which is your favourite?

These beautiful bags and purses arrived to us on Friday! They're in our shop now. And, will be on our website soon.

Matt & Nat say:

"We get to experiment with bag shapes with some ground rules: no leather. Simply put we don’t like hurting animals and we care about the welfare of the planet. No serif fonts either, they hurt our eyes. No meat in the office but lots of vegan cupcakes. A mandate to use eco/recycled/upcycled materials wherever we can has led to recycling plastic bottles for linings, the use of cork and secret future plans to upcycle bicycle tires.

We are MATT & NAT, our values are love, authenticity and responsibility. We are inspired by the textures and hues of nature, we will do our best to protect."
