Ahoy there, Matey!


The latest offering in the Summer Bric-a-Brac collection from Odd Bird: Spy Glass necklaces!



Who doesn't love nautical accessories during the warm weather?
What the heck, these are so fun you'll want to wear them year 'round!



Each brass spy glass (aka telescope) comes attached to a long chain and a bauble of sorts. Each bauble is different so no two necklaces are exactly alike.



And the best thing about this necklace?
The spy glass really works!
You can peer through the lens and then cry "Ahoy!"....or just wear it quietly like a normal person, ha ha!

Dandelion Fluff (we used to call these “Wishes” when we were little because if you caught one floating by in a breeze you’d make a wish while holding it)

New Bags From Moira Coughlan

New bags from Moira Coughlan!

Moira's been busy at work sewing up her "fashion meets function" bags. Known and loved for her simple designs, Moira's been shakin' and shimmying things up a bit with her gorgeous fringe line! I caved in to temptation and got myself one yesterday- oh the danger of working in the shop! You can read about my love affair with my green fringe bag here.



If the fringe is just a bit much for you, try one of Moira's simpler styles, like her classic Bonnie Bag. She has lots of colours in stock, including a sunny mustard yellow!

Welcome the latest member to the Moira Coughlan family- Lela. This versatile little lady can get you through the day, and be your go-to girl at night. Just the right size for spring when you want to travel light, but big enough for all the essentials.


Moira has lots of colours of this baby in stock at the store, but I chose my 2 faves to feature- sage green and mustard. I'm a little obsessed with bags, and I will not buy a bag if the inside disappoints me. You know what I mean? I want to love a bag inside and out. Moira's bags are just as gorgeous on the inside- you can really see how perfectly they're made when you open them up. High quality lining, perfect stitching, pockets that help you organize, and other little details that make using the bag a daily joy. Months after the bag is part of your life, you'll still be thinking, "I love this bag!" as it holds up well, washes well, and suits every occasion. You'll love your Moira Coughlan bag every single day you own it!




Here's the inside of the Henrietta tote which is on sale right now. See details here. Moira knows busy ladies want to find their stuff fast, so she includes a key clip and several roomy pockets. A detachable shoulder strap makes carrying it all easy, whether you're taking Henrietta to the gym, office on a weekend getaway!

Check out the full selection of Moira Coughlan bags at Fresh Collective soon! If you come on a Saturday, you'll meet the lovely Moira in person. She can also make custom orders, so if you need a different colour, or other modification, feel free to ask!
