Reiss 1971 Collection
We’ve just booked a mini getaway for our wedding anniversary next month. That must mean I need a couple of wardrobe updates right?

After featuring Nina Holst’s lovely home last week I promised a glimpse behind the scenes at my own workspace, so this weekend, after giving the place a quick tidy up, I finally got round to taking a few photos.
Vintage Enamelware… 10 Etsy favourites
The end of summer is usually marked by the annual ritual of blackberry picking and pie baking in our house. And if you’re going to bake a blackberry pie, then you really should do it in a good old fashioned enamel dish in my book.
Here are 10 of my Etsy vintage enamelware favourites:
A pattern in celebration of David Mellor’s ‘Chelsea’ salad servers by Kate Farley
When I got married we were lucky enough to receive a set of David Mellor cutlery as a wedding gift. It’s not ‘kept for best’, we enjoy using it every single day and it’s an ever present reminder of our wedding day and of all the special people we shared it with.
So when surface designer Kate Farley got in touch to share a preview of her latest design it made an instant connection with me. In discussion with Corin Mellor, Creative Director of David Mellor Design, Kate has developed a graphic pattern celebrating the shape and form of the ‘Chelsea’ salad servers that hints at the craft of cutlery production using the cut-out forms, as seen in Hathersage at The Round Building factory.
yeah, you definitely need some new stuff to celebrate the anniversary in!!! i LOVE Reiss, I always find a million things to buy but sadly, they're not all that cheap…

You're right Katie. I only own one Reiss piece – a classic little black dress that I bought quite a few years ago. It wasn't cheap but it's a timeless shape and I've had good cost per wear value out of it.
I think it's worth investing in more expensive pieces only if you know that you will wear them again and again. That's what I like about this collection – it looks really wearable.
