Fabulous
If mum is a collector, you’ll have to call into the Corbridge shop to browse our blue beauties - T&G Green ‘Domino’, ‘ Jersey’ and Cornishware. We really do have a wonderful display at the moment - and also have plenty of Denby, Maling and other brands and kitchenalia beloved by mums.
Equally fabulous, this rare, historic Hera Liberty large silk scarf was designed for Liberty in 1875 and is still going strong today. This scarf was produced to celebrate 100 years of this iconic peacock design - and what a perfect gift for a mother or the woman in your life!

Foxy
Loving this foxy outfit, created in the Corbridge vintage emporium, with faux pearls at the neck, a stole for the shoulders and a foxy glam dress as the main attraction, with a foxy split to the right hand side. We have so much fur, much of it faux, and foxy dresses and jackets for you to explore in the shop.
Why not treat yourself to a little foxy gem for International Women’s Day on 8th March, to celebrate being a woman in 2024?

Funny - and Furry
And now for some fun fur, after a fashion.
Quirky and cute, we are loving this vintage, rhinestone dog brooch! With his emerald goggles and his diamond studded coat, he is dressed to impress on his strolls with you out and about around town, and will draw eyes to your outfit.
We have a FABULOUS range of brooches, including dogs, cats, horses, flowers, stars and moons in the shop and online, making a brooch a perfect and personal present for mum, to celebrate what she especially loves.

Fringed
How fabulous is this fringed suede handbag, fresh from Italy, in a crocus colour that is perfect to sling over your shoulder this spring? And why not pair it with a suede mini dress with a real 60s vibe, in complementary leaf green? The dress is vintage Topshop, unworn with original tags, and in pristine condition.
Both of these gorgeous items are in our Corbridge shop right now and we have many other fringed bags and purses to browse in the shop and online, from smart to boho.
Flapper
And there is this art deco, fringed and flapper-style handbag, dripping with gorgeous ivory beads and rhinestone detailing. The neutral colour means that it will complement many of your clothes perfectly.
Frivolous
Tiny, useful, yet just so slightly frivolous, this LS Fashion bag will suit many for International Women’s Day, being just big enough to hold a mobile, lippy and a little money - all of the basic essentials.
Designed as a clutch, it also has an optional chain - perfect for shopping and nights out.
We have teamed the bag with a gorgeous, silk Liberty scarf - a passion of ours.

Flirtatious
Check out this flirtatious Frida Kahlo inspired floral brooch of a ringed hand, clutching a bouquet brimming with rhinestones, almost as if it is an offering to a loved one.
