We went to the cafe for breakfast this morning and the first thing that fell out of the paper was a beautiful poster for this clothing company. I had a look at their website when I got home and whether or not I buy any clothes-(I would like to but hate the sizing difficulty of internet clothes shopping)-the website alone was pleasure enough. The way they have got the sound of the wind on the part I linked to is just lovely! I love catalogues that imagine a lifestyle as well as showing the clothes. Especially if they are beautiful and gypsyish like these are!
On a different subject-I am going to attempt to make our computer connection wireless tomorrow so if it all goes wrong that will be why I am not responding to any emails, should there be any! Hopefully it will not go wrong but I just have this feeling.
When we walked back from the cafe-via the Cat's Protection League charity shop-I found a great chalkboard/easel. Modelled on it are a crochet handbag from Greenwich market on Thursday and a gingerbread girl from the same stall. There is something so jolly about her that I loved when I saw her hiding at the bottom of a basket of various crocheted and knitted items. These are all examples of things that can be procured for £3!
The gingerbread girl is made by the Knickerbocker toy company of New York. The slogan on the label is 'JOY OF A TOY'. There is a lovely picture here of a gingerbread couple-with a girl like mine.

oh that gingerbread girl is just too cute!
I love those clothes- I was browsing them on line a couple of weeks ago. The site has good advice on the fit of all the garments.
LOve the clothes, went and checked out the website. So romantic..
Love the good finds you have.
Good luck on the wireless.

Great finds, Sarah! Your Saturday morning sounds far more interesting than mine--lukewarm croissants, lukewarm tea and a coldish, rainy day. I need to get out more!

The Gingerbread girl is sweet. All right, your going wireless. You will love it, trust me. I also have something for over at my blog.
Ok, I am finally back. I got lost for a long while on that website you recommended. Now I can hardly wait for the catalog I ordered. They reminded me of a smaller, more personal Anthropologie. I loved it! Thanks so much for sharing.
Such a cute gingerbread doll! I hope all went well with your wireless internet set up!
