Yaya Autumn Outfits from Rainbow's End

Mon, 24 Oct 2011 13:04:00 GMT

You'll no doubt have felt the chilly edge that's ever present in the air, with leaves turning yellow and Halloween and Bonfire night very close.

I love this time of the year - whilst I always feel bad about leaving summer behind, Autumn brings a real excitement for the coming months of festive celebrations and staying indoors wrapped up warm!

Here at Rainbow's End, it's time to show you a few Autumn outfits you can create from our collections.

The Yaya tops and tunics this autumn are really wonderful designs. Here we have the black Yaya tunic shirt which is beautifully elegant and layered. Over the grey leggings, this makes a great combination.

The boots are from the Heavenly Feet range, renowned for being a very comfortable brand of footwear. We've chosen the Eternity in Black Suedo, for another fashionable edge to your outfit.

The bag we've chosen is the Vintage Print Bird Satchel by Disaster Designs, and topped off with a pretty necklace by One Button. These fashion accessories finish off this perfect Autumn outfit based on Yaya clothing.

Remember to take a look at our other ranges too for more inspiration!

Blondie Mania Bags

Mon, 04 Jul 2011 13:49:20 GMT

Blondie Mania bags are simply wonderful! I know it's easy for us to say that, being in the shop with them. But it's not until you really pick up one of these Blondie Mania bags and start to use them that you recognise how fabulous they really are.

Each one has it's own distinct features and uses. One our favourites here is the Blondie Mania Laurel handbag. It's so versatile, it can be worn neatly on your shoulder when you want a sophisticated look, or the long adjustable strap can be used when opting for a more casual satchel look. Or you can simply detach all the straps and use it as a large clutch bag. Now there aren't very many bags on the market that can give you that sort of flexibility!

The history behind Blondie Mania is also very inspiring - partners Helen and Gerard travelled around the Far East and happened to cross paths with wonderful people along the way who helped them create their vision for Blondie Mania.

Here at Rainbow's End, we sell a gorgeous collection of Blondie Mania bags as well as wallets. The fantastic Juniper Wallet can also be worn as a bag - yet another example of a wonderful creation from Blondie Mania! :)
