Radio Heart

I just thought I'd let you know that the new Futureheads video for Radio Heart features a few things from Black Pearl - mainly the gold bow necklace the actress is wearing, and also a couple of the dresses draped around her room. The video was styled by my good friend Victoria Cumming who always tries to incorporate some Black Pearl goods in whatever she does - thanks Vicky!

Hi Daisy!

Eagle-eyed magazine addict Sarah (of Chelsea Rebelle) spotted none other than Daisy Lowe wearing a Black Pearl hair bow in Rubbish magazine. Well, actually it's more of a hard back book than a magazine, it's pretty impressive. In a hilarious shoot called 'A Suitable Boy' Daisy meets various suitors looking to claim her heart while her parents look on in horror...

Black Pearl in Grazia!

Yes, Black Pearl is listed in the 'Where's hot on Carnaby' page in this week's Grazia Magazine! The magazine ran a promotion for the Carnaby Shopping event in association with Grazia which will be on 29th May. You can register at www.carnaby.co.uk for free tickets, which means you get 20% off in all of the shops in the Carnaby area, Black Pearl included. The event starts at 5pm and finishes at 9pm. More importantly, look - it's me! I will say that I had no forewarning that there would be a photographer, it's not bad considering!

New Things!!

I had a day off yesterday and came in this morning to find the flower hair clips I ordered had arrived, yay! I spent this morning unpacking them and putting them on display - voila!

Perfect for this fabulous weather we're having I think you'll agree. Also this week I had the pleasure of going to the studio of Frillseekers vintage and picking some pieces for the shop which was very exciting. It's like shopping, but not for me, but just as good. I had a good rummage and came away with about 20 dresses, my favourite of which is this one...

...just look at the cute bow detail! (I'm a sucker for bows). Here is how the rest of the rail looks...

I was away in Madrid for a few days last week (stupidly forgot my camera, but will hopefully get some pics from the trip to post), but before I left I had these rings made...

People have been asking if I sell rings for so long I thought I'd better get some. I used some charms I had already which usually go on necklaces, and had them soldered them onto rings, they worked out pretty well!
