Monday Funday

Morning everyone! I know Mondays are not probably up there at the top of most people's favourite lists, but I love them. Our weekends are an absolute blur of business - a lot of our new stock arrives on a Friday evening and so Saturday and Sunday are spent getting everything priced, photographed and out on the rails for all our weekend trade. I love walking into my little boutique after the weekend and seeing all the gorgeous new items out on the rails ready for the week ahead. And hopefully my first hour at work will be spent collecting all our online orders and reserves and putting them by for post or collection. The website went crazy last night with orders so I will definitely be busy with that later.

Over 100 new items arrived with us this weekend - the usual fab mixture of vintage, high street, designer and homewares. I'm in love with this Fortnum and Mason hamper which is perfect for home decor ( they make great storage baskets ) or for a posh picnic

                                              Fortnum and Mason Picnic Hamper - £25

And how cute is this? Its a lunch bag from Paperchase - this would be so cute to take to work or school. I absolutely love the woodland animal design. Its brand new and is an absolute steal at just £8

Paperchase Woodland Friends Lunchbag - £8

I was uber excited when this Tara Starlet dress came in as I really love 1940s fashion. This navy tea dress is great for day or night. I really like the detailed collar and flare of the skirt. Its in great condition and at only £30 is a real bargain

Tara Starlet 1940s Style Dress - £30

We've have lots of Cath Kidston in recently, which is great as it is hugely popular with you guys! This little beaut came to us yesterday - its so cute and I would use it as a pencil case but it would serve equally well as a make up or toiletries bag. Its only £6 and is in great condition

Cath Kidston Pencil Case / Make Up Bag - £6

There is so much more in store and online at www.queenofthreads.co.uk so do head in to the shop or over to the website for a browse. I'd better get out of my pyjamas and into work! Have a great Monday everyone and I'll be back with you again soon 

Feelin' Fresh

Hey hey! Busy week at Queen of Theeads. I've been sprucing up our website www.queenofthreads.co.uk and social media accounts. Hopefully things are a bit more streamlined now and user friendly now. Make sure you have a peek and let me know what you think. 

Some beaut new stock came in over the weekend 

This cute Topshop hat is just £8 and instantly lifts an outfit

I have a bit of a love affair with lace and I just adore this vintage shirt. It's only £12 and as with all our other pieces, is available in store or online at www.queenofthreads.co.uk

We also have this gorgeous Zara bag - if you like it, grab it quick before I keep it for myself!

Have a great day xx

Back to Blog

Hello everyone. Its been quite a while ( er, yes, almost a year!) since my last post. However, one my my New Year's resolutions was to write more so the blog is a good place to start.

Queen of Threads is now 3 years and 3 months old - how did that happen?! The time really has flown and we now feel like a really established business and definitely part of the Newport Pagnell high street - we're here to stay! We've added a few more bits and pieces to the shop layout - we now have a New In rail so that regulars can head straight for our new stock and see what's arrived since their last visit. This seems to be getting the thumbs up - I'm looking forward to adding more and more to it.

We have some lovely bits and pieces in just now; as the weather is soooo cold, I'm all about the coats and chunky jumpers this week

Primark Pink Biker Coat - £12  BUY

Per Una Hooded Parka Coat - M - £15 BUY

River Island Soft Cream Frill Jumper - 10 - £10 BUY

Chelsea Girl Lace Front Jumper - 8 - £8 BUY

All of these beauts are available to buy from the shop and of course from our website where you can buy online.

Its good to be back blogging and I PROMISE I will post regularly this year. Hope to see lots of you popping in throughout the week and of course its always great to hear from you on our Facebook and Twitter pages. Have a great day and I will speak to you all again very soon

Helen xx
