Shopping in style

As you know we are on a mission to find other shopping events to get our Christmas presents. The idea came last Thursday when we went to Room 202 in the Covent Garden Hotel.
We were invited to an exclusive shopping event by A.Alicia, where Anna (A.Alicia) was showcasing some of her beautiful brooches and necklaces. It was a sight for sore eyes! Calmness, cup cakes, a variety of beautiful items to buy and an opportunity to chat to the designers in the most stunning environment, what more could you wish for?

Amma Gyan
The idea came from Amma Gyan, who’s transitioned into a designer this year and decided there must be more than crafts fairs and markets to sell your products. She wanted something that suits her style and the Covent Garden Hotel was the perfect first venue. Stylish and cool, yet comfy and cosy! And the designers that were chosen for her first event fitted right in.
A.Alicia with her exquisite handmade fashion accessories, AliceMade’s bold decorative prints, Saga Arpino‘s beautiful silk scarves, Amanda Louise‘s collection of children’s clothes (so so cute) and to make sure your gifts (and there was something for everyone in your family) you can finish them off with stunning greeting cards by English Design.
And of course there was Me, which is Amma Gyan’s baby, her leather bags and accessories are stunning and something special. But that’s a different post as there is so much to say.
And the best bit? This is only the start as Amma has told us she is planning to grow the collective. Hurrah!! It is such a great way to give exposure to designers who just need a bit of help to get out there; we can only support such a great idea.
And next time we will let you know in advance when it’s on!!
