This week for my 'shops i love' page, I bring you another brand I discovered at Top Drawer. Dear Prudence, started by textiles and fashion graduate Laura Ruth Vickers in 2009.

After graduating from Glasgow School of Art in 2006, Laura worked on prints and graphics for Alexander McQueen and Emma Cook. This led to working with other renowned fashion designers such as Missoni, Vera Wang and Calvin Klein on textile prints and illustrations. She then went onto selling her innovative prints on greetings cards at Brick Lane market. Now living in the Yorkshire countryside, Laura produces unique and stylish prints on cards and paper inspired by the beautiful wildlife surrounding her new home.

Dear Prudence is available online from gift company, Lasso the Moon.

Have a sweet day!

The Conran Shop - What's your style this Spring?

The Conran Shop by Torie Jayne
1. Seletti Daily Aesthetics Cake Stand, 2. Geodesis Candle, Aloe , 3. Cake Stand White, 4. Blue Spotty Breakfast Plate, 5. Babell Cake Stand White, 6. Blue Spotty Mug, 7. , 8. Blue Spotty Breakfast Bowl, 9. White Bird Candle, 10. Hand Smocked Cotton Wave Cushion Cover, 11. Turquoise America Chair, 12. Hand Pleated Origami Cushion.

I am loving the handmade Blue spotty casual dining range, looks so fresh and fun, perfect for Spring! You know how much I like a cake stand, so I am coveting the whimsical Daily Aesthetics cake stand and the Babell cake stand would be a wonderful place to serve all my sweet treats in the Garden. I can't resist showing you an apothecary jar to fill with candy and something Birdie, and this candle one is so cute!

To inject a pop of colour into my craft room, I would go for the Turquoise America Chair and to add some Boudoir chic to my bedroom I would go for the bang on-trend origami inspired cushion covers.

This week for my 'shops i love' page, I bring you another brand I saw at Top Drawer. Terrace Garden is a small British based online store selling wonderful items for gardeners. Galvanised planters, hanging baskets, twig obelisks and my favourite, glazed pots, vases and candles in beautiful colours bearing the Royal Botanic Gardens - Kew Gardens stamp.

On my wish list are some of the Kew Garden plant pots in tiffany blue and lavender - a great way to add colour to my patio all year round.
