That elephant was over £300 and it sold out. But I managed to get one for my dad's home help and the lollipop lady.

Does she really need it? Will the Kitchenaid which you have tucked into your present drawer for her not suffice.
Maybe! Although I migh order a batch of l'Occitane thoapth to distribut to random backpackers.

I do think that Simon's face looks a little, shall we say 'stretched' around the eyes of late. Hmmmmmmm......
His bags have never been up to much, more a case of the Kings New Clothes, plastic imports that a market stall would have trouble shifting.
Yes I do remember his earlier creations were much more stylish and wearable, decades before the stuff his design team churn out now.
Who wears the absurd rings ? oh yes, Lulu would, and have you ever tried to use one of those 'beauuuuuuudiful' or ' amaaaaazing' key rings that are so heavy that you would be in A & E with a smashed knee cap with all the banging when your car key is in the ignition. (yes to my detriment I bought one of the early Scottie dogs, and after several pairs of ruined tights, was relegated to the charity shop !)
I think Simon is now a parody of himself, but cant be knocked, as its mugs like us that have bought into the 'cutesy' chickens, rabbits, kittens and Charlie Chaplins that have paid for his pad in Monaco !!!

And what the hell are those 'Hand' brooches all about?

This is the worst, not as creepy, but £132.00!! For a brooch?

Us mugs have paid for his 'alleged' facelift.
Weirdly, I do enjoy the shows though. God, I must be demented.

SW is an odd character. That parrot brooch was hideous. I can't imagine who'd buy that! This is not the 80s! I remember when snake bangles and golden coffee beans were fashionable in jewellery. My grandmother used to have a hideous spider brooch on her shoulder. Probably B&W! hahahahah

CMQ, what did you get? I have lots of BW but haven't purchased much this past 18 months as too many were arriving damaged.
Sometimes an overload of bling is the only thing to satisfy! As with everything, if you pick and choose you can get nice pieces. I like statement pieces and the price of the real thing would be eye watering.

Health to wear (them all!). I was very tempted by the Art Deco necklace myself but I was saving myself for Honora.
that necklace is stunning, i think of all of the things i got the coin drop bracelet is possibly my favourite though... i was tempted to wait for honora, but so glad i didn't i was really disappointed their offerings and their TSV!

The wrap bracelet is pretty and my daughter would love the tiger keyring but I can't do with the big chunky necklaces and am not a Meerkat fan - sorry!
I do enjoy the banter between Simon & Julia but I have bought 2 items from the B&W range and both have broken on the first outing and customer service was non-existent, in fact, the ladies at the Fulham Road store were very rude, so I will not buy from them now.
