In late August there is no denying that the long fingers of dawn are a little cooler than they have been of late and she takes a little longer to lift her dark veil.

Albeit, in the middle of the day we are all still bare armed and lightly dressed, determined to squeeze the very last drops of summer from the rapidly fading season.

Maybe next week, or perhaps the week after, something will change in the air… and that’s when we begin to consider the first of those winter essentials. Be assured, here at Mash n Gravy HQ the deliveries have been coming thick and fast, and like Christmas come early we cannot wait to rip open those boxes and show you what we have in store! We will however, have to keep you in suspense just a little longer as we are busy behind the scenes making essential changes to our web site in order to improve your shopping experience.

From the 1st of September our store will have a whole new look and feel as well as allowing you to create an account if you so desire (see, we do listen!), thereby enabling you to spend less time entering your details time and time again.

We have added Mini RodiniTalc and Kidscase to our store to set the tone for the New Season, with all of your old favourites to come and a few new additions sure to win your hearts.

In this mean time, we’d like to offer FREE WORLDWIDE SHIPPING until 1st September.

Make the most of these last few weeks of summer!

Kidscase Autumn/Winter S011

Filed under: New Season — julie @ 8:38 pm
Seemingly innocuous cardboard boxes have been arriving at Mash n Gravy HQ all week – Manilla on the outside they may be, but once open, glorious Autumnal hues, in a variety of rich textures spring forth and almost induce a desire for the dark evenings and log fires (I said ALMOST!)
This season we remain enormous fans of Kidscase, from Amsterdam. This small independent label was founded in 2000 by Jacqueline van Nieuwkerk and Merel Verbrugge. Their first collection in 2001 attracted attention due to the fashion forward style, attention to detail and  intense, powerful colours. Pioneering children’s boutiques immediately saw the potential of the brand and fell in love.
Each season sees a classic style reinvented. Modern, dynamic and versatile the label pride themselves on garments inspired by comfortable, wearabe sportswear as well as ‘High Fashion’ and aim to achieve a collection lauding the ‘Basic Plus’ look.
From the inception of the brand, their philosophy has been to produce collections by means which are fair to people and which are environmentally friendly, and although fraught with difficulties along the way the current collection boasts that 70% of it’s garments are made from Organic cotton, of which 52% is manufactured under humane working conditions in facilities which care for both their work force and the environment.
Rich – warmth – comfort – chic – uncomplicated. This is what leapt out at us as we opened up our deceptively unexceptional boxes this week.
Never judge a box by it’s colour!

Look on the Bright Side

Filed under: New Season,News — admin @ 2:32 pm

imps&elfs 2011 summer collectionThe Spring Summer delivery of Imps&Elfs has arrived at Mash n Gravy HQ and the fresh and vibrant colours just leapt out at us as we opened the boxes.

Spring is certainly on it’s way.

With colours officially described as ‘Jelly Red’ and ‘Happy Yellow’ you can just imagine the joyful palette which we are about to bestow upon you.

This season the collection pays tribute to sport. Passive or active, individual or on a team, sports lifestyle or life sportstyle, the definition does not have to be adhered to literally. Whether taking it easy at home or being away on an action packed adventure, Imps&Elfs make the wardrobe selection easy. Comfortable leggings, loose, soft pants tongue in cheek graphics and zingy colours mixed with enough pale and slate grey for the seriously sporty kid.

The cobwebs will be instantly blown away when this kids clothing collection goes online. Keep your eyes peeled…

Retail Therapy Munster Style

Filed under: New Season — admin @ 1:43 pm

Is it just me or are the the winter nights starting to get lighter? Well, it’s about time, all that snow, ice and dark nights – I mean it’s enough to make even the hardest of us feel depressed. However, there is a way to prevent the onslaught of depression, – ‘retail therapy’ – even the mention of this, is enough to brighten up and put a smile on most peoples faces.

Spring is on it’s way and what better way to increase your mood than to have a look at the NEW Spring clothing range for 2010.

Also, worth a look is the new Munster Kids range, with their bright coloured tees and cool hip shorts, you’ll soon find yourself dismissing the winter blues and thumbing through those holiday brochures.

Kids Autumn Winter Jackets

Filed under: New Season — admin @ 1:16 pm

Have you noticed the change? Very subtle little changes like it’s getting darker earlier and the wind carrying a little nip all signs that Mother Nature is carefully putting Summer away for another year. Before we know it, they’ll be less songbirds in the morning as they head south, the leaves will be coloured in golden browns and woodland walks become a natural spectacle.
