Now that the weather has changed for the worse and the clocks have gone back, we are heading into the colder, darker days of winter. The good news is we have just taken delivery of our new winter pom pom hats in some beautiful bright shades, as well as the trusty winter white, dark greys […]
Simply Devine owner Liz Devine Wright is hoping to add another feather in her cap after being shortlisted once again in the English Wedding Awards. Liz – owner of the Tadcaster destination hat shop – is shortlisted in the 2022 Wedding Boutique and Accessories supplier of the year and in the Specialist Wedding Supplier of […]
Once again, we will be celebrating Small Business Saturday this weekend – on Saturday 4th December. Launched to encourage shoppers to shop in their local high street, it supports local businesses – often small shopkeepers who operate from a single store. We all know retail has had a tough couple of years – with many […]
We always tell our customers to bring their entire outfit when they come to visit us for their wedding headwear. And so many times they tell us they “don’t wear hats” or “I’m not a hat person”. But when it’s their daughter or son’s wedding, they want to look fabulous but don’t know where to […]
