All hands on deck!


This is my lovely boyfriend Andy helping me stick 500 barcodes to our recent John Lewis order! John Lewis are trialing two of our designs in 4 shops! London ladies you can get yours in Oxford Circus and Peter Jones Sloane Square. We will keep you updated! We are hoping to get an even bigger order if they are successful (we might have to get a few more barcode sticking helpers though! haha)

Love Tara

Awww!


Flat-hunting is driving me to distraction but Tara wrote me this lovely message for me today to cheer me up!

Mary Portas-Queen of Shops!

I thought I would write a quick update from me! Bianca is just so good at this blog thing, I am yet to get it!
I literally had my heart in my throat when pitching to the House of Fraser directors and Peter Cross, Mary Portas business partner. Thankfully they loved helpful hankies and want them to be stocked in 5 of Mary's shops that she will open in March! A bit of an excuse for us to travel around and go shopping I think!

It's not goodbye, it's just au revoir


My lovely friend Camilla is going off to explore South America and Australia. I will miss her very much (not least because she would have been a great Moi Self model!) but I know she will have the time of her life. We met up for cocktails in the Keston Lodge, Angel on Saturday and sobbed over drinks that were far, far too strong. She loved her Helpful Hanky!

We'll miss you girl!

Blooming Lovely

I know we always bang on about how our Helpful Hankies are so much better than greetings cards, but we're not saying we don't like having them around! I treated myself to some Sainsburys reduced blooms (classy) and it actually cheered me up no end. Pink roses - the perfect antidote to a flat-full of boys. Boyfriends? Pah! Who needs 'em girls? Buy your own blooms.

We Won!





Well, it seems Tara must have done an amazing pitch in Birmingham because...we just found out we WON the Mary Portas/House of Fraser competition! We are so happy and I am SO proud of her. Out of 170 people, then 15 finalists, Moi Self is number 1. A dream come true. We will be stocked in House of Fraser! More news on this soon. Check out her amazing mood board and pitching outfit (surely the most important thing, no?).
