MORE TWEED LOVE...

I guess I should be thinking of Spring and florals today, but instead I am still on Tweed! Katie Mosa creates "Tweed With A Twist", accessories and gifts for you and your home. It was these Tweed cushions with suede applique animals that first caught my eye and inspired me to delve deeper into her collection.



In Katie's own words "'Tweed with a Twist™ is a way of making tweed accessible to everyone. You don't need to shoot or have a pile in the country in order to have a little tweed in your life! Our homeware and accessories look just as good in a flat in London as they do in a house in the country.' Read more of her story and philosophy here." 90% of the Tweed used is sourced from Scottish mills and the pieces are handmade in the UK. Can there really be any other way?

Well, as you will know by now, I am a huge fan of Tweed and love the fact that so many contemporary designers are using it in such a fresh and up to date fashion. Here are some more of my favourites from Katie Mosa's collection.

I just love the simplicity of her work, not to mention the gorgeous Tweed she has chosen to work with.

Her website tells us that Katie will be launching a clothing line under this label too...so keep your eyes pealed for that. Browse her full line here.
