✨ Come with me to pick an outfit and get Dolly dressed for cosy season! @villageandcouk 🍂🤎

In our family, you’re very likely to be called Doll or Dolly at some point! 😂 My Dad always called my Mum Dolly, my sister-in-law calls everyone Doll, and I say it to my girls too. So it’s only fitting that the shop mannequin is called Dolly! 🥰

Now, getting her dressed yesterday was a whole other story… 🤦‍♀️ Every time I got her jeans on, she’d shrink! Technical issues galore 😂 Thankfully, Wendy came to the rescue and helped me get her sorted! 🙌

But we got there in the end, and Dolly is now officially ready for cosy season! 🍁

🤎 Cream jeans 🤎 Brown cardigan 🤎 Reversible leopard print jacket 🤎 Beanie 🤎 Triangle scarf

Cosy, comfy and ready for autumn! 🍂

Want more details on Dolly’s outfit? Drop me a DM and I’ll be happy to help! 💌

Hello lovely,

Well Autumn definitely feels like it's arrived this week! The leaves 🍂 were stunning this morning when I walked Honey but big scarves, coats & umbrellas were definitely the order of the day.

Earlier this week, I popped into the shop to check on a few things and give our Autumnal table a little spruce. This season we're stocking gorgeous hand painted honeycomb decorations, beautiful block printed tablecloths which you'll love taking out each year and the most scrumptious autumn candles and wax melts.

Whether you're looking to add some cute knitted pumpkins to your foraged Autumnal foliage or need a thank you gift, we have just what you're looking for in-store.

See you soon!
🧡Robyn xx

PS: Save the date for the Christmas launch - Wednesday, 4 November. Doors open at 10am and prosecco served from 4pm in the afternoon. Make sure you bring your favourite Christmas shopping buddies.
