Our fashion find of the week, this week are these lovely skinny jeans by Miss Selfridge, £34.99. Unfortunatley the picture doesn’t do them justice as they look great from the back, skinny in every sense!

Thanks to ‘OUTFIT’ at Thurmaston Leicester.

I don’t have a great deal to report this morning other than it is a lovely quiet sunny morning and everyone here at Lello is busy getting on with accounts, orders, making cards, packing jewellery and designing new ranges.
Today I am wearing our coral classic glass bead bracelet £8.50, available in numerous colours.

Classic coral bracelet £8.50

 Log on tomorrow for our Friday fashion find from ‘OUTFIT’.

I have a few words for today hope they are well received:

A person needs to become aware of their own shortcomings before focusing on the faults of others!

Needing a man will attract him, while being needy is a turn-off.

Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit; Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

Not too taxing today! thought I’d keep it a little more light hearted.

What are we up to at Lello today? I have just come back from our new premises having organised the new set up of the office, it is such a big undertaking moving premises and it will be our 4th move in 11 years which is far too many and I very much we will stay put in our new building for some time!

I feel like Goldylocks saying ‘it’s just the right size’ for now and for the future! Karen

Today I am wearing one of my favourites, ‘Ho’ blue and white nautical bracelet £7.00. It goes with so many things and becuase it is light weight and chunky it’s very comfortable and easy to wear.

What are we up to at Lello today? I have just been down to our new building which we move into in October, thankfully it’s 2 minutes round the corner so not far at all to move to. Within the next couple of weeks it should be ready, freshly painted etc. the phone people have been in this morning doing their assesment so it’s all coming together.
No fixed date for moving as yet but we will be in before the end of October.

Monday finds us getting on with our new card ranges which will all launch over the next month or two, packing orders and continuing to empty our building for our impending move over the next two months.

Fiona is getting rather excited about the second of our 3 new card ranges, it’s so nice to be bringing out something new again. We would normally have left it till January but thought this year it would nice to have the new ranges up and running before we enter the New Year, so it’s ‘all in the bag’ so to speak.

Take a look at our current card ranges which have now been uploaded on our website under ‘cards and albums’.

Log onto tomorrow for ‘what are we wearing at Lello today’.

Before we upload our new ‘OUTFIT’ style feature showing you the trends from ‘TRENDSTOP’ translated into the clothes you can buy from ‘OUTFIT’ I have a sneak preview of one of the outfits we have choosen, below.

Our aim is regularly update Lello’s website visitors with up to date trends supported by’ Trendstop’ the renowned trends predication company. Using their trends we then translate this in the clothes you can by at OUTFIT stores, Miss Selfridge, Dorothy Perkins, Warehouse, Wallis and soon TopShop.

During this excersise both Fiona and I were really impressed with all the clothes but also the bags and the shoes on offer this season which we have not shown you before.

Fiona is wearing:
A lovely chunky knitted 3/4 sleeve cardigan by Dorothy Perkins, £29.00 with matching knitted scarf by Warehouse £25.00. The lovely coordinating bag is by Warehouse, £38.00.

If you click on the link to Cards and Albums on our home page you will see we have uploaded our handmade cards! However only to be added to in October by a couple of lovely new ranges!!

Some of the current lines will be discontinued. Our matching photo albums are some way off being uploaded on the site as it is a lengthy process but we aim to have this done in the next few months.
Available to Trade and the public.

What are we doing at Lello today! working on the finishing touches of our new card ranges, I have trip to the tip, lucky me with a lot of the rubbish we are clearing out of our building before we move in October.

Fiona is working on the new trend forecast which will upload on our home page in a few days, so please keep looking. Friday’s fashion find of the week, tomorrow supported by ‘OUTFIT’!

My wise words today all come from Winston Churchill. It would appear that time has no relevance on relevant quotes! There were so many I liked I could have gone on all day but chose these three, I hope they make you think today!

A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.

Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.

Continuous effort – not strength or intelligence – is the key to unlocking our potential.
