Hi all,
A BIG thank you to all of you that came and support L'Armoire on Independents Day last Monday 4th July. We had a great day and it was lovely to see people enjoying the treasure trail and making the most of Cowbridge's unique and individual high street. So lets keep it that way. Don't forget what is right on your doorstep.
Smart Sale Buy
At this time of year while out shopping we hear people say to themselves 'how much wear will I get out of this?' and 'do I really need it?' With a new season fast approaching this is the perfect time to pick up a great piece that will carry you through into autumn for less. So if you buy smart then you can tick yes to both questions in one go. Here are our smart sale buys;
Layer this American Vintage navy dress that was £55 now £39 with Day stone jeans that were £95 and are now £67 and a Day silk scarf that was £85 and is now £60 for an autumn inspired look.
Choose this Day wool cardigan/jacket that was £172 now £120 to add a little warmth to an American Vintage cotton stripe dress that was £89 and is now £65. Wear with bare legs now adding leggings or skinny jeans later on in the season.
New season stock has been arriving thick and fast this week and we can give you the sneaky info on what's to come for autumn. To start Day has sent us their crop of silky smooth jersey basics that make great foundations for a new season wardrobe. To add to that Malene Birger is keeping it clean with a chic, almost androgynous feel to their collection adding lace detailing for the feminine accent. Now we can't wait for the knits to arrive... well maybe that's pushing it a bit?
Fashion Blog Tip
So, here at L'Armoire we are always on the look out for good fashion blogs. They are fantastic for styling ideas and emerging trends that don't always come straight off the catwalk. They feature real people and their individuality that goes with them. Hanneli.com is our latest obsession http://www.hanneli.com/ Hanneli the creator is a beautiful Norwegian model that 'dabbles' with her fashion blog in her spare time while also styling shoots for Vogue and more. She has also recently been tipped as the most influential blogger in the world. Where has she been all our lives? We seriously recommend you check it out. Hanneli is featured in most of the images capturing her laid back chic take on fashion with a Scandinavian edge that we love. You will be hooked in no time!
Mojito Time
Kick back in the garden for the weekend and refresh with a summer Mojito. A simple yet (very) effective treat.., just don't have too many on Sunday evening!
Ingredients
1 tsp white sugar
a good squeeze of lime or lemon juice
a handful of mint sprigs, (don't cut off the stalks as these contain essential oils vital for the flavour of the drink)
ice
soda water , to serve
50ml white rum
a dash of Angostura bitters
lime slices, to serve
1.Put the sugar in the bottom of a glass and pour the citrus juice over to just cover it. Add 2 long sprigs of mint. Muddle (gently pound) the juice, sugar and mint.
2.Add ice to the top of the glass, fill the glass two-thirds full with soda water.
3.Add the rum.
4.Stir and add a dash of Angostura bitters.
5.Top with slices of lime and a pretty flower of your choice.
Have a great weekend xx
