Clogular Delights
As three girls who have a soft spot for a good looking pair of shoes, imagine our delight when the lovely people of Swedish Hasbeens invited us to the launch of their pop up clog shop in East London. We were lucky enough to meet Emy Blixt, the lady behind all the fabulous clogs and hear how the brand was created. Who’d have though it was all down to camel smoking house wife called Anita in the 1970s?! The pop up shop was beautifully furnished to reflect the 1930s influence on the latest collection, Call of the Wild.

Today was spent on one of our favourite annual outings – the Tweed Run, this year being even more special as it was their fifth birthday! We battled wind, rain, wind and more rain to make it to the end of the run. Our ride was punctuated with a refreshing tea stop outside John Soane’s House, where we revived ourselves with cake and gin. We were also lucky enough to meet the lovely ladies from Penhaligon’s who spritzed us with the most fragrant scents, enough to mask damp tweed!

Two years ago, we had matching outfits… And last year Fleur and Bethan did… Watch this space to see what’ll happen this...
Read MoreHappy birthday Jeni!
Today we went bowling for Jeni’s birthday. All Star Lanes is a super place to go for vintage fun – lovely food (and hard milkshakes), craft beer, cocktails… plus the main event! All three of us are basically the same mediocre standard as far as bowling skills go, so it was an epic battle for second, third and fourth place… after the boys (Hanson and Laurie) who are the very best and very worst respectively ...

Our red-themed Valentines Ric Rac Spectacular was a big success, with beautiful people coming from across the land to attend. We love the new venue very much, so thank you to The Blacksmith and the Toffeemaker (especially Matt) for being so super. Our pictures by the ever fantastic Hanson Leatherby show it better than we can in words… take a look! The rest can be found on our Facebook page! Bethan, Fleur and Jeni, aka The VM xxx
