Katvig back in stock!

Back in 2006 when we first opened the shop here in Yorkshire, one of the first Brands we had to have was Katvig... 
Katvig has since then done their best in the fight agains pollution and the way we recycle things... Although it has meant that the prices unfortunately have increased slightly.

We have now ordered some pieces from their winter collection and I think you will love them as much as we do...



Vigga Svensson is the woman behind the Katvig™ children’s clothes that have become an instant classic among parents around the world. When she got the idea for the clothes it was hard for her to reconcile her desire to protect the Earth with the production methods being used.
That's why she began to use organic cotton and recycled polyester, made out of used plastic bottles. She wanted her signature Apple prints and stripes to be as friendly as possible to the nature, to the people making it and to the children wearing it.
Vigga has also developed a transport system that saves enormous amounts of packaging. She is politically involved with the sustainable development, and has already had great success with putting her mark on the industry.
Her latest initiative is a cotton mill that would make Denmark completely free of the very polluting consumption of cotton we see today. Instead of the endless pollution of nature and environment, the cotton mill will make it possible to recycle all the cotton that is thrown away every year.
Recently Vigga has launched what might be the most sustainable material ever, recycled organic cotton.

"Instagram" for IPHONE

I dont know if many of you are aware of Instagram... 


Its a fab little app for the Iphone with kinda Facebook possibilities.  
You find your friends and follow their lives via their photos that they post onto Instagram.. 
You can also follow people from all over the world... lets say you see a photo on the "popular" page that you really like.. you can then go in and have a look at this persons other photos and if you find them amazing you just click "follow"
There are also options for posting comments i.e. "wow where is that taken?" or other comments. 
I especially get a strong desire to travel... see all those amazing places...
It also cleverly picks up your friends from Facebook.


I do like the way you can enjoy someones fab photographs without having to have the whole polite conversation.. the only downside to Instagram is the self portraits of various girls looking for rude compliments but they are far and between and it is well worth downloading...
