Maxi-mise

Morning,

First off, we made an appearance in a news video on the Herald & Post website! Watch it here. I'm also in today's Evening Telegraph, so I'll scan that in for next week.



The street party I mentioned earlier in the week looks set to be great. Pictures of the flyer are above (that's me, holding the Death Kitty Vampette skirt). It's on Saturday 25th September, and will be opened at 11am by the mayor, then it runs all day on Sheep Street and Silver Street in Wellingborough, to celebrate the reopening of the road. It has a circus theme, and there will be rides, stalls, face painting, clowns, live music, giveaways and competitions. Not being fans of clowns, we are doing a special themed window display that is slightly aside from the circus theme, but should fit in well. It runs until 3pm, so if you're in the area, pop in and have a look. Check out the Facebook event.

Having uploaded those photos, Blogger now appears to be angry at me and won't let me add another photo, so I'll just have to give you the link to the Pick Of The Day on our online shop. So POTD is this Max C Cream Chiffon Skull Print Maxi dress. Order it before the end of Sunday 19th, and get £10 off, meaning you get it for the bargain price of £35!

Also, a quick reminder that this is the last day to take advantage of our introductory special offer on our Monsalina Chic dresses, which are currently £28 but will be at their normal price of £35 from next week. These aren't on the site yet but hope to have them up there very soon.

Have a good Saturday!

Here Kitty Kitty

Morning

Much planning today for our special window display ready for next Saturday's street party on Sheep/Silver Street in Wellingborough. We're also donating a prize for the competitions, details of which I think can be found in the Evening Telegraph over the next week so keep your eyes open for the chance to win a Temporary:Secretary Plate Of Biscuits ring! The circus themed street party is on 25th September, all day, and there will be rides, entertainment, special offers, decorated shops, so come out and support your local high street (assuming that it is your local high street, if you live in Aberdeen I don't really expect you to make the trip, although Wellingborough is lovely in the Autumn, I hear!).

Very excited this week as our very first customer, Jo, is back in town after spending her summer working in Greece. Therefore if anyone wants any Barry M, I suggest you get in now, before she raids the stand tomorrow!

Pick Of The Day today is this Death Kitty Skull Bow T-Shirt. Available in Small, Medium and Large, this 100% cotton t-shirt is one of DK's new designs. The cuteness of the big pink bow is offset by the cheeky little skull in the centre, so perfect for when you want to be cute with an edge. Great value and quality, as always from the DK team. Available in store now, or order online at the link below.

Order your Death Kitty Skull Bow t-shirt here.

The week is almost at its end. Think we've got some surprises for you next week so stay tuned!

Water Water Everywhere

Morning,

First off, this is the 100th blog post for Unorthodox! To celebrate, I'll let you in on the special offer that's open to our Facebook followers. Head on over to our Facebook page for more info, and claim £5 off any Iska dress purchased between now and close of business on Saturday. For our mail order people, that means you still save after paying P&P (for those in the UK anyway, overseas mail order costs a little more I'm afraid)!

Arrived at the shop this morning to find that they had jet washed the pavement and it had all gone under the door, so if you visit today and find the entrance a little damp, I can only apologise! But if you all buy more things, we can have a less ugly carpet! :)

Pick Of The Day is one of the Iska dresses included in the offer. This Gold Trim Slinky Butterfly dress is really flattering on most figures and comes with the belt shown. The silky fabric is lush, and the gold trim on the sleeves and neckline add a little 80s-style glamour. Normally priced at £30, if you take advantage of the offer, it can be yours for a mere £25.

Oh, and before I go, for those in the Northamptonshire area, 25th September is a date for your diary. There's a street party on Sheep Street/Silver Street in Wellingborough and we'll be taking part. More info to come.
