Talking of which we have started to stock more size 16's, like the lovely Kendra Cardi from Louche London which is great to team with one of our gorgeous a Spring / Summer dress ' whilst it is still a bit nippy out there!

drooling is not a good look!

So...the new season shoes from Armistice have finally arrived and I think I speak for everyone in the fox + feather team when I say THEY ARE AMAZING! If you haven't heard of Armistice before, let me tell you a bit about them. They are French and they are so cool it hurts, in that way that only the French can be! We trialled a few styles from them for AW12 and quickly sold out, so for Spring 2013 we have added more styles and more colours. They do laid back, stylish footwear that is effortless and easy to wear. Perfect!

They have various different styles, 'Stroke', 'Stone', 'Lazy', 'Cruise' covering all the trends, creepers, boat shoes, loafers and slip-on.

I've just started adding them to our website. All the options on the photo's below will be on there soon. If you desperately NEED them in your life (like we do!) just give us a call (0117 3292 575) and we can sort you out. We understand, we have only just about stopped drooling...

it's the new season lovelies!

Yey! We have finally started to bring in our new season collection. There is always a time in the middle of January when you feel like the new season is never going to start and then all of a sudden, deliveries start arriving and it all gets very exciting!

So last week our very favourite suppliers of the best UK womenswear brands jumped into action and sent us boxes and boxes of brand new stock. We had deliveries from Goldie London, Louche London, Armistice and Madam Rage. Phew...the shop is looking full to the brim!



Our main focus so far has been finding the cosiest and coolest knitwear. We have got animal prints, cats in glasses, studs  and sparkly fluffy options! In fact, my favourite of the new jumpers sold out completely in 4 days! I think that it is a record for us! It was the very cool Bright Animal Print Sweatshirt  £25 by Madam Rage. Don't worry though ladies...we have re-ordered it and it should be back on our shelves and online in a couple of weeks. And yes, we have tripled the qty's this time round!

the foxy ladies Christmas DO!

Last night we had our Fox and Feather Christmas party. Yey! We went to The Flyer on Gloucester Road for a proper Christmas dinner. The table looked gorgeous!


Everyone wore their festive jumpers....apart from me cos we sold out before I could get one!! Yes I'm the one in very festive black....

So from left to right it's Nia, me (Clare), Hayley, Amy B, Emma, Amy and Jess. You can't quite see it but my jumper is a crazy magic picture where stags appear the more you look at it. Yes, really! Good for scaring drunk people with!


I had to head home early to look after mini me, but from all reports much fun was had...say no more...

Thanks to all my gorgeous girls for a great night and for all your hard work this year!

Never mind the rain

I've had another busy week this week. Lots of Spring 13 Look Books are landing on my desk and I really do need to make sure we get all our orders placed soon. Goldie London's new collection looks superb and I am already putting together new season outfits in my head even though it's only November!

The rain has been so torrential I decided that even the most practical waterproof jacket would not protect me from the elements, so I made the decision to just wear what I wanted and try to tackle the weather with the worlds biggest umbrella! 


With this in mind I have been loving our new Little Mistress Black Waterfall Silver Stud Detail PU Jacket. It has quilted sleeves (LOVE a bit of quilting!) and star shaped studs. It looks great with loads of different looks, skinny jeans, leggings etc but I think my favourite outfit was with my trusty Pamela Mann Fairisle tights and a basic black jersey vest dress. I teamed the jacket up with my new favourite label Miss Pom Pom and their fab Super Pom Scarf They have the cutest knitwear accessories you have ever seen (I do believe Ella Henderson likes to rock a Miss Pom Pom scarf!) so check them out quick.

Where's the party at?!

When the nights get longer and the cold air starts biting, more often then not I find myself dressing for comfort rather then style. So when we get a delivery of party dresses, they have to be incredibly gorgeous for me to even think about wearing one! And this is exactly what happened when we unwrapped out latest box of goodies from Little Mistress. I was instantly drawn to the beautiful cobalt maxi dress with gold beading and headed straight to the changing rooms to try it on. It is fits extremely well, with great shaping around the bust and an elasticated back to ensure it stays where it's supposed to! Even more appealing is the fact that if I wanted to, I could keep my thermal leggings on underneath and no-one would ever know......sshhh! :-) ....now where's the party at?!

Good for layering, good for me!

Well helloooo November! It's my favourite month of the year. I love the smell of winter approaching, bonfires, fireworks and treacle toffee. Oh and it's my birthday! Ha!

I'm loving the chance to finally pull on my snuggly woolly tights. Layering up is fun! Last week we had new deliveries from Chuti and Louche London. I'm still a bit undecided as what to choose to update my wardrobe. I want a new skirt and a new cardigan but unfortunately one of each is not an option ;(

So.. do I get this gorgeous pleated beauty from Louche London? I love the coloured bands and the detail on the waistband on this Lejoi Skirt. I imagine myself wearing this little number with some coloured tights and ankle boots.

Or..do I go for the super cute Bunny Cardigan from Chuti? Animal motifs are one of my favourite trends this season.

Oh whatever, it's my birthday, I'm just going to get both. Sssshhh....

Lazy lovely




I am a lazy fashion lover. The way I like to dress is very little effort, and taking as little time possible! So when I find an item I can easily convert from day to evening, I am one happy lady. Goldie London definitely have it covered with this gorgeous Fiona Top in black. It's in store now and on-line. I've been wearing mine with a cami underneath and jeans in the daytime, but it is so easy to dress up for the evening. I think that just about sums up the way I like to dress!

loving these sunny days...

It makes me smile when the sun shines, especially when you don't expect it. Yesterday I went for a gorgeous walk in the countryside in just a tee shirt (obviously not JUST a tee shirt...) and it felt so good. I had a few hours of not thinking about work, there was no signal on my phone and boy, that was enjoyable!

On my walk I was wearing my Brat and Suzie Nordic tee from their new AW12 collection. It shows how busy I've been that I had never really looked at the print properly. It is little stags and birds! So cool!

So here it is, for everyone to enjoy...and we do have a few left in store so you can always get your own and pray for another sunny day to show it off in it's full glory before you layer it up with a chunky cardi!

Web shop is open! At long last!

Whoop whoop whoop *does a little jig* our new web-shop is up and running as of yesterday! We processed our first orders today which was strangely exciting, though I am sure the novelty of wrapping and packing and posting will soon wear off!

http://foxandfeather.co.uk

The web shop only has a small selection of what our Bristol store has to offer, but you will find our best selling brands Louche London, Brat and Suzie, Goldie London, Little Mistress  are all there. There are also a few sale bargains that we don't have in store so do have a look!

We are still photographing stock to get it on-line. Coming soon will be our gorgeous shoes from Armistice, jewellery from Rosie Fox, fabulous eyelashes from Paperself, stationary from Sukie. And then we have new clothing brand Chuti arriving any day soon.... sleep? us? never!

We are also excited about our visit from Drapers (the fashion bible!). They are coming to check us out as we have been shortlisted for best new business of the year. We are extremely flattered, and will be making sure we are looking our sparkling best for them next week.
