Rock 'n' roll

Evesham was the place to be this weekend as the town hosted an amazing vintage festival. The two day event saw shoppers getting the chance to listen to some amazing music while they browsed round so many stalls! Emma was down there and so were Katie and Jan (last featured on the Malvern Hills post). Ems says it's one of the best vintage fairs she's ever attended, there were thousands of super cool people there rocking to the music while they shopped!

Fashion Prince

There's so much choice nowadays for kids' fashion with miniature versions of just about everything adults can buy as well as some cute things us grown ups couldn't get away with. Emma's grandson Cameron is definitely a mini trendsetter and is always rocking an amazing outfit. So today we thought we'd bring you a few of his favourite items - not just the clothes but also his favourite activities, teddies and shoes!


 This is Cameron on his favourite rocking horse with his Gruffalo outfit on!


 With his certificate from the Teddy Bear Factory.


 This is one of his favourite toys - he loves playing shops although his doesn't sell cool vintage clothes like his nanny's does! It was from John Lewis and costs £49.99.


How cute are these new Converse?!


Cameron was really excited to grow his own flower - this pack was from John Lewis and cost just £5.99.


His favourite cup featuring the characters from the children's book The Gruffalo.


Cameron's absolute favourite thing to do is painting - he'd spent all day getting messy if he was allowed to!





Cameron's new Trunki backpack - he was super excited to have this for his swimming lessons. How cool does it look? It costs £19.99.


He's so hot on his fashion and always enjoys rocking the latest trends! This t-shirt and hat are both from H&M.


How cute is this little sock monkey? Cameron has named his Stripey!


Hunters are THE wellies to be seen in and these mini versions are ever cooler! Cameron loves it when it rains so he can pop on his wellies and splash in all the puddles. These were £34.99 from Office.


Freddie and Ralph go everywhere with Cameron - they're his favourite teddies and were both from the Teddy Bear Factory.


How cool is this t-shirt? It's from River Island and is a bargain at £8.


These are just the funkiest little trainers ever! They're from H&M and Cameron loves them. We love them too - do they come in our size?!

Festival fashion: Coachella

Remember a few weeks ago when we brought you our festival guide blogpost featuring images from Coachella? Well the event itself has not long finished and we've been busy eyeing up all the seriously stylish people who went along! But while we're wishing we could have been magically transported to California to take part in all the fun, it's starting to warm up a little over here which means you can start incorporating some of those festival trends into your look!




EMMA SAYS:
What a festival to be at! It's the coolest and the most fashionable one I've seen. And of course it's full of 'it celebs' with the coolest bands too!




HARRIET SAYS:
I am utterly in love with the big floral headbands being sported by some of the beautiful girls who went along. They are absolutely amazing and the laidback casual vibe is just perfect for what I'm hoping will be a decent summer!



SOME OF THE BANDS:
Blur / Yeah Yeah Yeahs / Stone Roses / Modest Mouse / Tegan and Sara / Foals / Postal Service / Hot Chip / Sigur Ros / Two Door Cinema Club / Red Hot Chili Peppers


SPOTTED:
Jessica Alba / Courtney Love / Gerard Butler / Mischa Barton / Diane Kruger / Kate Bosworth / Katy Perry / Kristen Stewart / Rihanna

Girls about town: shopping in Solihull

Yesterday Kate and Emma popped over to Solihull to do a spot of shopping - they really enjoyed themselves and felt like they could have spent a whole week there! As well as indulging themselves in the shops in the Touchwood Shopping Centre, they also stopped off at the Homemade Burger Co for lunch - delicious! Emma chose a classic barbecue burger with homemade chips while Kate had a chicken burger with cheese and chilli, also with chips. For pudding they picked a lemon meringue pudding with fresh cream and ice cream for Em and chocolate brownie with cream and ice cream for Katie.

Have a look at the shopping centre's website www.touchwoodsolihull.co.uk for more information about the shops on offer there!


Here's a little look at what they picked up!
