A blazer is a jacket much like you’d see children wearing to a private school – they are smart, well cut and can be worn over a light blouse or a heavier shirt. In nice soft leather, a blazer would be great teamed with a pair of jeans, or even a skirt.

If you’ve seen an old war movie, then the jackets the men are wearing in the airplanes are called bombers – after the kinds of planes the pilots flew. Bomber jackets are functional, with pockets and zippers for storage and style.

Look After Your Leather

LiquidLeather Leather has traditionally been used to give the feeling of luxury to automobiles and furnishings. Hand-built cars and furnishings were trimmed in leather and exotic woods. This tradition continues today on the production line, but as production techniques have changed, so has the leather, it is now much thinner and needs more careful care. In addition, leather is now tanned with recyclable materials which reduces process times and waste by-products, but also results in the attractive "smell" traditionally associated with quality leather being lost.

The need to care for such leather finishes has lead to the creation of specialist leather care products such as Liquid Leather which clean, soften, protect and restore all leather articles from jackets, handbags and saddles to car and domestic seating. The Liquid Leather products are available with Scotchguard ™ for water and dirt repellence and the latest formulation even adds the traditional "smell" to new and old leather products. A full spectrum of leather colours can be treated with Liquid Leather and the range also includes specialist leather furniture care products such as Scuff Master leather dyes which are able to cover unsightly "scuffing" or rubbing that can often result in areas of heavy or continual usage.

My Travels With Sigh Clothing

Sigh clothing Two summers ago on the beach in Ibiza having a brilliant holiday with my toddler and new baby. White sands and deep blue skies with nothing but relaxing to do. Hold on!! I remember toddler, so not so relaxing. Thank you Sigh Clothing for my half-length coat. My post partum body was very relieved for some stylish cover on the beach as I ran to catch my small child. I even felt comfortable pulling them through the shallow water in their boat. The coat would dry in two minutes keep me from sunburn and smartly get me through lunch and was in essence indispensible.

The following summer we campervanned around Europe with my two toddlers. I discovered the Desdemona Dress, again as happy on the beach as in a restaurant, market or bar. I had two with me. The rest of the bag full of clothes I had brought became a weighty, unnecessary burden. This year I will take my two Desdemona dresses, Half-Length Coat, flip-flops and some heels when going on a beach holiday.
