With the right investment there is no going wrong.
From the outside it seems virtually impossible to be the next big brand, we throw words around like "I wish I started that brand" (well what stopped you?) or " it was a lucky brake" even "they had money before" but with investment from private equity firms your business can really be transformed. Take preppy brand Jack Wills for instance, boasting profits from just under 5 million in 2008 to over 10 million now, they are in my opinion one of the most exciting and clever brands in the last 10 years, and it all seemed so easy, but was it? I am sure they have suffered the same issues that every new business has and that is why they needed investment, to grow into the brand that has stolen the hearts of every student in Britain. Hats off gentlemen we salute you.

Window dressing
Spent the last week prepping for new window displays with the demise 'hopefully' of winter and spring around the bend the creative juices are flowing. First stop February the 14th vintage bicycles (1940's Raleigh, what else would we use!) wicker hearts and a grocery basket full of incredible wines, the space is clean, contemporary and classic! Well that's the plan. Anyway it's all finished and awaiting single Rose heads for the floor.
