A long Sunday lunch, a trampoline, a three year old and a Chloe clip. Lunch was delicious, the trampoline kept the kids entertained, the three your old was a happy combination of chatter and activity and through it all the Chloe clip stayed put! Never once did her mum say "would you hold my wine while I fix her clip".

Loving the spots and the colour combo! A very comfy headband in a sleeve of beautiful ribbon.

Halloween fun! As children we planned for weeks what we would be and not necessarily something scary - cowboys, fairies, Disney characters, race car drivers and fireman were all acceptable choices. The dressing up box existed long into our teen years as the previous year's costumes were altered to create something new. A hula skirt became a rather itchy scarecrow wig and the cowboy waistcoat and sheriff badge took on a whole new style when worn by a 15 year old in a denim mini skirt. A rather humorous costume was the "bunch of grapes". Purple tights and leotards with many balloons attached was a great idea until we realised we would not be able to sit down all evening.

Fairies, a Ladybird, a Pumpkin, Cinderella and a Cowboy (that same waistcoat, first worn by my brother in 1969) filled the house with laughter this year. Nothing scary just pumpkin carving, too many sweets and lots of fun!

Simone - A star of a bow! The perfect alternative to the Ella and the Hannah bow, 5cm in length, attached to a pinch clip and just £2.00!

Never like the mention of Christmas in October but Miss Gracie's hair clip holders are always a sell out and replenishment has just arrived. Very practical and in the popular colours of Pink or Orchid they make a lovely wall decoration for her bedroom. Remember Miss Gracie gift wrapping is always free. Type the word "gift" in the special instruction box at check out.
