CHRISTMAS CARDS

This year's Christmas cards have arrived a little bit early (although, when it comes to Christmas is there even such a thing?!) due to my being currently overseas.
To get a head start on the silly Santa season, and because I'm feeling festive after seeing all of the Christmas displays in NYC, I decided to put these beauties up in the shop now.

Taking inspiration from one of my favourite Christmas jingles, 'Kissing Santa Claus' is a play on the song made famous by Motown and the likes of Jackson 5 and The Ronettes. You might also remember Elaine crooning it out on Ally McBeal back in the 90s. Remember Ally McBeal?! The dancing baby?! Barry White?! Sigh...
It's just a super fun, flirtatious carol that I thought would be the perfect accompaniment to Christmas this year.

Available to purchase now in packs of 3 here: www.birdyandme.bigcartel.com
As always stock is limited so be quick to avoid missing out.

Please note that any orders placed on or prior to Friday, October 30th will be posted on Monday, November 2nd.

IT'S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE A CHRISTMAS SALE

A big guy in a red suit famously once said "Ho, Ho, Ho!"
'Tis the catch-cry of excited gift-givers the world over at this time of year, generally accompanied by a jolly disposition and a rosy cheek.

Christmas is my all-time-favourite holiday (have we gathered that get?)  and it's happening in exactly ONE MONTH. Yes, that's RIGHT.
To celebrate, and encourage, this merriment, I'm taking 25% off EVERYTHING in my shop until Dec 1st.

WHAT'S THE TIME, MR.WELLINGTON?

It's like the game. Get it?!

Already a huge fan of my tan/silver Classic Sheffield Lady, I've just added the black/silver to my collection, thanks to the lovely gang at Daniel Wellington.
As you might already know from previous posts, my wardrobe is fairly monochromatic at the best of times.
After wearing only silver for so long, I delved into the world of alternate metals and became a bit of a gold/rose gold convert.
However, with my recent Saint Laurent purchase of the Cassandre monogramme in mock croc and silver, this watch is now my new best friend!
I live for my new bag, affectionately known as "Cassie," and she accompanies me on most excursions these days.
Until now I haven't been wearing a watch as I find that I'm unable to bring myself to clash leathers. Enter Mr. Wellington.
Now it's me, Sheffield, and Cassie. Gals about town.

I'm also thrilled to be able to pass on this special code for you guys, just in time for Christmas.
Order any time piece from the Daniel Wellington website HERE before Christmas and save 15% with the code: holidaybirdyandme
Merry Christmas, Mr. Wellington!

A FASHIONABLY FESTIVE CHRISTMAS

This year's Christmas card has been a whole lot of fun to draw!
I openly admit to being a fanatical lover of Christmas; someone who will look for any excuse to get the tree up as soon as possible. In recent years I have been pining for a pink Christmas tree, resplendent with its frosted white and gold decorations. My husband, understandably, does not share my affinity for the girly pink tree. So this year I took a leaf out of the clever Sally Spratt of The Lust List's book and decided that if I can't have one I'll draw one.

So here it is, in all its coppery, blush, glory: a babe with party curls and a pretty pink tree to call her own. As always, this year's Christmas Cards are a limited run, so get in quick!

Available in my shop here: www.birdyandme.bigcartel.com

ALSO - as a special holiday treat - every print order* in my store from now until Dec 10 will receive a free card. YAY. Gift sorted!

*Card included with print purchases only.
