 Blue is such a great colour and with the right tone it is flattering on everyone. Our 100% Pima cotton Steel Blue collection is timeless and a best seller because it is such a lovely colour and so very soft. I couldn't help but notice some of my favourite brands have also fallen for blue and wanted to share these with you. The ultra stylish Deborah Brett recently launched dbcermic and how incredible is the colour of these hand blown cobalt blue bubble glaze porcelain bowls - perfect as decorative pieces, serving dishes or to keep special trinkets and jewellery in. For little girls Smock London dresses are lovely, with each dress named after an inspirational lady from history. Their new blue gingham smock dress is called Katherine Johnson after the pioneering NASA mathematician who’s brilliant calculations helped put man on the moon. I used to work in the watch industry and special timepieces still catch my eye. Breguet's Reines de Naples is my ultimate ladies dress watch and their new sapphire set limited edition is stunning. I wholeheartedly recommend Natasha Poliszcuk's book reviews, she has a beautifully written and witty blog, and a fabulous Instagram account. I have read a number of her suggestions and they have all been great reads - I am currently half way through The Whalebone Theatre. How charming is this Forget-Me-Not card by Memo Press. I adore forget me nots, which my grandmother used to have in her garden and now grow in abundance in ours. All Memo Press's designs are from beautiful original watercolour illustrations and they are printed here in the UK on the nicest paper stock - the quality is second to none. I hope this little edit inspires you, Roanne x |
