Free People For Him

For those of you, like me, who are massive fans of Free People you'll be verrry excited by the news that they now have a 'For Him' range (and just in time for Valentine's Day)! To celebrate the launch of the range they let me pick out a couple of pieces to give to Roberto as an early Valentine's day present so, in the name of all things cheesy, we had a little shindig to ourselves yesterday afternoon. I popped on my finest partywear...

How incredible is this dress!? Obviously it's no secret how big a fan I am of seventies shapes, so as soon as I saw this floaty, hippy-esque badboy it was love. I thought it was cream when I spied it on the website, but in real life it's got a lovely lilac tinge to it. Meanwhile, through in the living-room, there was an eager little beaver awaiting his presents...

It wasn't long before he got stuck right in..

aaaaand, Hey Presto! You may be sitting there thinking, 'Oh I know what this is, it's a baton used in relay races', but, despite the misleading pose, it's in fact an amazing antler bottle opener. Each individual one is slightly different, this one in particular looks kind of like it belongs in the mouth of a sabre tooth tiger (of course I'm basing this statement entirely on Ice Age) which Rob particularly enjoyed.

Next up was this amazing 'Ours' decanter with matching 'His & Hers' tumblers.

We actually do have whisky in the flat but there isn't a taste in the world I like less (there I go, betraying my Scottish heritage again) so we went down the unconventional route of filling it with mulled wine. First up on the menu was a toast to the new flat...

So, there we have it, a little sneak peak of some of the gifts that'll be stocked in the 'For Him' range which, in my opinion, couldn't be more perfectly Free People if it tried!

Don't worry, they haven't forgotten about us ladies - there's not only a 'For Her' Valentine's section on the site, there's also a 'My Secret Valentine' lookbook, filled with the most beautiful selection of undies. Plus, it's modelled by Alyssa Miller, who's one of my all-time favourite models which - I think - is one of many signs that are telling me to just BUY IT ALL.

Anyway, th-th-that's all folks! Happy early day of sschmooches.
