Peace, Love and Dandy Star

Having just moved into my new house, I'm very tempted to get Dandy Star's new Peace poster in gold ...

While I make up my mind, visit the London label new blog and discover some uber-cool Christmas t-shirts.

Baby it's cold outside

Best Years off to Bangladesh!

Do you have snow forecast for your region this week? Expecting temperatures to dip below freezing? How would you like to go somewhere nice and warm instead? Interested? Where would you like to go?

I bet Bangladesh isn't the place you have in mind!

Next week, while the UK freezes, we ( the directors of Best Years) will travel to the South Asian country to meet the creators of our gorgeous Pebble range.

Made by workers co-operatives which have been set up in rural communities, our cotton crochet toys, blankets and accessories are proof that you can produce beautiful collections at affordable prices and provide fairly paid employment.

Watch this space as we will take pictures and blog about our trip. You will also discover some of our new designs, many of which will be exclusively launched at Bubble London on 30 & 31 January!
