23/5/2026 After a bit of a damp May so far, summer is – finally – coming in with a bang this weekend. So it’s a good job we’ve taken delivery of lots more SUNHATS! The hats (and caps) in this consignment are all rated UPF50+, ie total sunblock, with many...
19/5/2026 What’s likely to be the last major delivery of FASCINATORS this season has lately landed at our little emporium. From the small and special (witness the box of feathery clips) to the lusciously large (as modelled here by the Snookettes), we have...

1/4/2026 With Spring now well underway we thought we’d start our usual SEASONAL SWAP-AROUND… and then we thought again and decided we needed something a little more… well, more. So we’ve brought all the gents’ and unisex hats into the...
