London Calling!!!!

We've just got back from a couple of days down the smoke looking at the collections for Autumn/Winter and it's all looking good!!!!

Yesterday we saw Edwin Jeans and they we're showing some great denims in various cuts and great value for money. Under the same roof was Pointer Footwear and as you'd expect was bang on with the odd new style in the collection and some of the classics 'cleaned up' a bit for a fresher look.

We pulled Garbstore, Velour and Farah Vintage all in togther and none of them failed to impress with great stand out pieces in all 3 collections!!!

A new brand we saw which everyone in the know down there was talking about was Lavenham. They make quilted jackets and make them better than anyone else, there's some belters in the collection and a bit more than the basic quilt. With Lavenham you're also getting a bit of history, they made the first ever quilted rug in 1969 and today all their jackets are made in England. If you want a quilted jacket and want to be a bit different from 50% of the UK in their Barbours, Lavenham is the jacket for you!!!

Today we went to see one if our favourite brands who we've had on board from the very early days and they just get better every time we see them. It's the classic American outerwear label Penfield. In the collection was some of the ever popular jackets they do every year and some new ones in there. There was also great shirting, knits and accessories, these boys have developed their range a bit since that Gallagher fella wore that stunning jacket at main road in 96!!!

We didnt have time to go to the zoo or see her majesty but we're back down there for the day next thursday so might be able to squeeze it in then!!!!!!
