I just went to fetch the boy and it is a sweltering 37 degrees out there! Wish I had a shady lake close by to cool off - although I did have a lovely refreshing swim at the pool earlier. What are you doing to keep cool today? PS. I have a few items in this delightful fabric over in my Shop with free UK delivery until Friday - link below to discover more.🦆

Remember this bag from yesterday's Bag Chat? 💕

Well, she's now on my website, ready and waiting for her new owner!

Slim, lightweight and so comfortable to wear, this unique angled crossbody sling has pockets to keep your essentials organised while looking effortlessly stylish. It really does tick all the boxes.

Made in the gorgeous (and increasingly hard to find) Rifle Paper Co. Les Fleurs print, this is a bag that's unlikely to be seen anywhere else.

I've also made a matching mini wallet if you'd like the sweetest little set. The question is, would you keep it for yourself or gift to someone else? 🩷

Pop over to my website to see all the details – link in the comments below.
