ponchos and pom poms...

While the whole country goes to hell in a handcart, we are going to be in dire need of things to bring a smile to our faces in the coming days!

Ponchos and pom poms will do the trick for Tuesday.

Take a wee sneaky peek of Hayley Menzies SS17 Love Story Collection. Inspired by the free spirited 70's, the collection consists of knitted ponchos, blankets, kimono's and shearling boa's. Made from Italian cotton/cashmere blend yarns, shearling and embellished with custom-made pom poms and tassels...

Hayley Menzies launched in 2011. It was during a trip to Asia, Hayley was inspired to create her  label which she sold at Portobello Road Market before launching online and opening the doors to her Studio Store. She set out to make sure that her accessories that transcend trends and seasons. They proudly use ethically sourced materials but I don't like the use of any fur even recycled.

"I've learnt so much about production, yarns and their durability over the years - our collections are made to withstand the test of time"

While Hayley wants her collections to capture "the effortlessness of the Portobello girl", Glasgow girls like us, just want to be warm and snuggly. Shearling always does the trick.

Now pass me some another poncho and heavy on the pom poms please….
