Credit Crunch Cute

Quail By Mail have designed the most gorgeous little hand made zoo! The cats, dogs, rabbits, owls and bears are all hand stitched from recycled fabric and they are perfect as a brooch or a handbag charm. At only 6.50 each (plus free P+P), they make a great guilt-free treat...almost as good as chocolate!

The Perfect Clutch

Clutch bags never go out of style. A fashion whimsy, how could you possibly resist their streamlined beauty and delicate impracticality?

Once of the most talked about bags of the season was most recently seen clutched by Eva Longoria during a night out with Victoria and David Beckham. Fortunately, this beautiful Carrie Valentine bag is now available in the UK from Red Ruby Rouge at £169



For day, I am loving Miller & Jeeves' tan clutch, made of hand stitched English bridle leather. The colour of the leather is just gorgeous & it's sure to work with 99% of your wardrobe! Available from Kelso

FINDAFASHIONSHOP.CO.UK In WWB Magazine



FINDAFASHIONSHOP.CO.UK has received a mention in the July edition of Womens Wear Buyer (WWB), which says:

"New website findafashionshop.co.uk has been launched to aid fashion retailers' online businesses. The company provides a personalised online marketing service for £45 per year and retailers who subscribe to the site are included on searchable databases that consumers can use to locate a store, as well as stores offering exclusive discounts. Paul Hart, marketing director, says, "The 'Exclusive Offers' feature supports shops in marketing themselves online during quieter periods in the season by offering, for example, '20 per cent off for this week only'. So far we've found that both shops and consumers have responded really well to this facility from day one."

Thanks WWB!

Red Ruby Rouge

One of the great things about working at FINDAFASHIONSHOP.CO.UK is that we are inundated with pictures of beautiful clothes and accessories. Of course, this can be one of the bad things too - if I bought everything I saw and loved daily, I would truly be in trouble-with my fiance as well as the bank!

Today's mouth-wateringly gorgeous, must-have item is this stunning Moss Mills belt available from Red Ruby Rouge. The amazing clasp is such an elegant work of art. I think I would just stare at this belt for hours before wearing it solidly for a month! Definitely a piece that would stay in the wardrobe for years and years.

Daily Inspiration



A little business inspiration for today...

It's all very well looking good in a pair of jeans, but to turn that into a multi-million pound business venture in just 3 years takes skill, drive and huge commitment.

As the body behind brands such as 7 For All Mankind, Lucky Brand, Citizens of Humanity, Guess and others, Paige Adams-Geller (pictured centre) did just that.

When she realized it was time to use her expertise and unique values to create the perfect fitting jean, she came up with a signature range, Paige Denim, which soon became known as “the best butt jeans” in the business!

Try them for yourself, they really do give you a fantastic shape!

Uh-Oh...


... The ultimate distraction! I came across the ultra-addictive Polyvore on the lovely Quail By Mail blog and I am completely hooked! If you haven't seen this yet, do go and check it out - it is super-easy to use and so much fun.

This is a very quick pic I did for a news piece about shopping in Oxford on FINDAFASHIONSHOP.CO.UK.
