Secret Garden Photoshoot

You may remember earlier in the year our summer beach photoshoot was hijacked by some late spring snow! We retreated to the studio and took some sweet shots of our little model indoors, but ever since we have been itching to take some more photos that capture the essence of the collection a bit better.

Finally a couple of weeks ago we got together again and took these new shots in a secret garden location in Norfolk. We hope you like them! and fingers crossed our British summer gets going soon...

P.S. We have 25% off Pip, our perfect summer sundress  online this week, available in three beautiful fabrics from 6 months - 7-8yrs.

Hester's Little Sister...

Baby's first spring!

Hester's Little Sister is back this month with some cute styling ideas for babies and a special offer below... 

Perfect for spring are our 100% cotton knitted leggings available in two striped colourways and classic dove grey, which goes with everything! They are so soft and comfortable and wash really well so they are bound to get loads of wear this season. 


 

Our summer vest tops are a great investment as they can be layered up now for cooler days but the soft, lightweight cotton fabrics will be perfect in the summer paired with our popular baby bloomers on the beach. Our Mathilde blouse, with long sleeves, has been updated for spring in poplin & voile.

 
Here is our little baby offer for you...

Until April 14th we are giving away a free pair of baby bloomers with every baby order (sizes 6-12 and 12-24 months). 


Plus don't forget, you can buy our beautiful woven baby blankets all year round, 100% wool yet lightweight and the perfect size for traveling, we recommend these for any time of year and they are perfect to pack for holidays!

Five festive styling tips

Here are our top styling tips for girls for the festive season!

#1 Party party party dresses
Of course this has to be number one! You can't survive the party season without a brilliant dress. Our Freya dress is designed to be dressed up all down so add a few festive accessories (see below) & your party shoes and dance! 

 

#2 Fantastic accessories
The festive season is a great opportunity to have fun with accessories, colourful tights, beautiful hair accessories & perfect hats, scarves and gloves.


We have a lovely range of co-ordinating grosgrain hair accessories available online and our Coco scarves complete any outfit perfectly and can be tied at the front, or the back for younger children.

For perfect ribbed tights we recommend Verity Jones or for babies and toddlers You Are Small have a fabulous range in every colour imaginable!

#3 A great pair of boots
Wellies are a must-have but we also think a great pair of smart boots are essential for Winter dressing. Here are a couple of our favourites...

#4 Cosy knitwear
Knitwear this season is made from soft and warm merino lambswool in the prettiest winter colours. Our striped Chloe trousers are perfect for snow days or cold days at home tucked up with a good movie and a bucket of popcorn and our Charlotte cardigan is perfect to throw on top of any outfit for an extra warm layer!


#5 The warmest baby blanket
These are our top tips for girls but for babies we have just one essential for the festive season, our woven lambswool baby blankets.
The size is perfect for swaddling newborns or for the Moses basket and is the width of most standard cots. Lovely and warm but lightweight and not too large it’s also a great size for prams or pushchairs and perfect for Christmas holidays and winter car journeys.

Party Time!

It's still a little way off but with our first Christmas fair this weekend it's time to start thinking about party dresses and what to wear on Christmas Day! Our Freya dress, available in two prints is the perfect solution!



The version pictured in our winter check fabric is full of festive colours, berry red & forest green, but also perfect to wear the rest of the winter through. It matches perfectly with our Chloe cardigan in navy & cherry, and for Christmas day we have co-ordinating grosgrain hairbands to add a special finishing touch, much more stylish than a paper hat!

Poppy Wears...

This week our Poppy Wears outfit has been chosen for half term holiday fun. Trips to the cinema with friends and autumn walks with cosy ribbed tights and Hunter wellies.
For our photoshoot we used these gorgeous tights from Verity Jones. This little leather handbag from Zara completes the look and is the perfect size for little essentials, lip balm, tissues and a bar of chocolate!

TRICK OR TREAT? We have 20% off online all week with promo code 'TREAT20'. Time to stock up on those cosy knits as the days get colder, or start the Christmas shopping early!

Poppy Wears...

Coco neckerchief scarf


Autumn has been creeping up on us slowly and there has definitely been a dip in temperatures this week. Not always cold enough for a coat, but Poppy takes her Coco scarf with her everywhere at the moment.


It's short length and cute neckerchief shape mean that it doesn't get in the way of kicking up autumn leaves and jumping in puddles. Made from soft merino wool it's super cosy and comfortable and sure to be worn all winter long! It can also be worn with the triangle at the front to keep the chest even warmer.

With half term just around the corner we are offering £5 off our Coco scarf on the website until October 25th. So you can be well prepared for those outdoor autumn walks.

Hester Loves...

Marcus Walters alphabet posters

This one needs very little explanation, this product speaks for itself. These alphabet posters are just lovely, bright colours, pretty pictures and a space to personalise with your child's name.


We have stocked up on these lovely posters to sell at our Autumn Pop-Up Shop in Tunbridge Wells, and they may well be on offer at some of our Christmas fairs too...

Poppy Wears...

Stormy Skies

Summer is definitely over, it's all clouds and rain here so it's time to pull out those cosy winter knits and start planning our autumn wardrobes. With this in mind we have put together our Poppy Wears blogpost inspired by the stormy grey skies we've experienced lately.

All of the items featured are classic and practical, guaranteed to be worn all winter long. Our Charlotte cardigan in grey marl chunky knit is prefect to wear as a jacket in autumn and layer up as the days get colder. The Greta skirt in Marine Blue or Winter Grey cord is another easy to wear piece and both co-ordinate with the all printed tops in our collection.

Our peter pan blouses, Coco neckerchief scarf and alice band in dusty blue complete the look. Check out our Facebook page for a chance to win one of our Mathilde shirts early next week...

The shoes were featured in our photoshoot and we wear these all year round, you can find similar at Bensimon, the colours are beautiful and updated each season.
