I know, I know, it seems to happen a lot at Jane Davidson, but our fashion loyalty is a bit fickle.
But this time we are truly smitten. And just in time for Valentine’s Day.
Lily and Lionel have just sent us the most heavenly scarves in dreamy lengths of gossamer-soft wool, cashmere and silk, depicting romantic panoramas of our favourite destinations.


London. New York. Venice.
So even if you’re stuck in the office on Tuesday 14th February, at least you can dream of being wafted away to one of these cities of wonderment.

Jane Davidson :: Clothes of Distinction

When it comes to all things print and illustration... I’m pretty much a self-confessed geek!

So you can imagine my reaction when I stumbled upon some vintage Jane Davidson Advertising today. Dated from the early 70’s these great little ad’s brought a big grin to my face.

One framed in a citch deco-inspired frame and the other depicting a classic 70’s fashion illustration.

Pout Power...!

CANDY pink, tangerine orange and poppy red - spring's new lipsticks are as bright and fresh as can be.

In lightweight, sheer formulations with glossy finishes, the new shades welcome the new season in vibrant style - whilst many also include vitamins and emollients to keep lips plump and moisturised.

YSL's sheer bubblegum pink is the epitome of the season's girlish prettiness, whilst Burberry's Devon Sunset No.28 is a natural shade ideal for channelling spring's natural minimalism.

And, with Valentine's Day just around the corner, their arrival couldn't be better timed.

Slimming heels...

Apparently next year we will be graced with these interesting heeled shoes. They claim to help you lose up to a stone (or dress size) in just one month! This being explained by the slightly bizarre curved heel which puts you off balance allowing for your muscles to work extra hard and burn more calories. They have even been given the name the Antelope shoe in regards to the curved heel.

As much as dropping a dress size in a month by just wearing heeled shoes sounds like a great idea, I think I will avoid this unusual statement shoe and stick to my usual straight heels! However, perhaps they will really work and we will all be racing out to get them.

Perfection!

Well ladies, it certainly seems to be the week for exciting deliveries at Thistle Street!!!

Erdem has just arrived and has brought yet another piece of Spring into the boutique. Cram packed with fresh floral prints, this collection is in stark contrast to its darker A/W 11 predecessor. A firm favourite of ours, and the designer himself, is the beautiful 'Isis' dress which we have in store now. More body-con than the other pieces, this dress is all about the decolletage and fresh summer skin.

The main inspiration behind this collection is the French book 'Bonjour Tristesse' (Hello Sadness) which follows central character Cecile whilst she holidays with her father and his mistress on the French Riviera. Erdem wanted a collection which would be 'optimistic, bright and youthful', and was taken by the idea of the young girl wearing the older woman's clothing to the beach. The result is a fresh take on vintage florals and feminine shapes.

So, whilst the temperatures drop outside and we all get a little chilly let yourself get lost in Erdem's latest masterpiece which invokes long, hazy summer days in the French Riviera.

Love,

Nikki

Victoria by Victoria Beckham dresses are here....

They have arrived - and they are utterly gorgeous!!! Victoria dresses - the new diffusion line from Victoria Beckham which is totally exclusive to us in Edinburgh. Great shapes, colour pops and much easier on the hips and wallet than mainline - the girls at Jane Davidson are loving them.

Unfortunately we can't sell to you online so I will describe them.... In the January delivery we received 4 styles. The Cocoon shape above in Emerald and Navy. A simple sleeveless shift in Scarlet or Ivory. A drop waist shape with a sleeve in Ivory and a Chanel esq black and white shift with a low waist and bow at the neck. I want them all! Get in quick they are selling fast....
