This week we launched our new, deliciously colourful and delightfully beautiful packs of The Hangers, in 'Summer' and 'Winter'.

If you're not in the UK, you may not know that the whole country has been in lockdown for three and a half months. It certainly isn't the end of the road, but this week some of the restrictions were lifted.

International Women's Day is celebrated every year on the 8th March. It is a day to both celebrate the achievements of women all over the world, and also recognise the continuing gender disparity in society and push for social, economic, cultural and political change.

It can feel scary, lonely, frustrating + overwhelming. The good news is that you're never the first to do it! Thankfully there are many trailblazers who have walked the path ahead of you, which is why we gain so much from hearing stories from a few steps ahead (ok, maybe a few miles ahead too!) In these books we've found big shiny bright ideas, comfort + useful guidance, as well as them...
