So that wondrous day is approaching – your wedding? Valentines? take out Friday? Sure they’re all great, but I’m talking payday. Think of all those delicious luxuries you can buy. Actually you don’t have to, because here is a mini list of beautiful things whether your budget is a crisp £10 note or a months rent.

The Tyler Bag in Pink/Metallic by Jeffrey Campbell – $150

The Me & Zena ‘Bobby Dazzler’ Pill Box Necklace – £31

Wild Fox Funny Face Goonies Long Sleeve – £102

First Aid Kit – The Lion’s Roar - £7.99

And it was once said, many, many, many times; all good things must come to an end. And this has never been truer for Me & Zena. You clever folk have been snapping up our bargains at the rate of knots – which means that there aren’t many left. Practically ZERO. Don’t miss out on Me & Zena sale classics that have adorned many beautiful celebrities and mortals alike. I’d like to add that Christmas is just round the corner (and maybe straight on for a couple of blocks) – imagine cousin Hilda’s surprise at receiving TWO necklaces for the price of one. She.will.never.know.

‘I like Sweeties’ Is now £9 – Ellie Goulding and Frankie Sandford own one of these bad boys.

Thanks to our friend, Jerry Oaf we discovered a lovely Me & Zena feature in quirky Austrian Magazine – Material Girl. It’s definitely worth a purchase if you like dreamy photo shoots and finding cute new brands.

Head to their website to peruse past issues

For those of you who came down to our sample sale a couple of weeks ago and purchased a treat or two – you would have received  a delicious chocolate favour from the beautiful chocolateirs – Creighton’s. The woman behind the best job in the world is talented creative, Lucy Huntingdon. Thanks to her quirky and unique attitude towards  flavour and shape Lucy has become a hit, opening her first shop last month in Leighton Buzzard, Wonka had better watch out.

Head to their website for unique gifts or even better, head to the shop for a lovely day out!

Our colour palette for Spring/Summer ‘11 embraced some dreamy, creamy hues that sat along nicely with the pastel trends. From our limited addition Take Me Down Anchor to the new season Lucky Horse Shoes to our latest jewel in the crown, the Roller Girl Roller Boot they all look practically edible.

With ice cream (colours) on the mind, I made a discovery today of the ultimate lollies created by Russian advertising agency, Stoyn, Selecting iconic faces over the last century, from Marilyn Monroe to Mickey Mouse to Che Guevara each flavour represents their personalities.

Food art is getting pretty wild but we think these popsickles are incred!!

The ONLY downside is I’m pretty sure they’re not available in the UK. Who would you temporarily immortalise im ice cream form??

Happy Friday!

Early Saturday morning, Zena, Ben and I packed up the studio and headed to Brick Lane for our first Sample Sale. With piles of jewels in one suitcase and delicious chocolate in another (courtesy of the amazing Creighton’s Chocolaterie) – we were ready for the bargain hunters. With pieces starting at £1 we knew there could be a bun (bling) fight on our hands. We had such an awesome time meeting our customers and facebook friends over the weekend, some of you guys are totes devotes.
