Earlier in the week on Wednesday my sister Becky and myself were invited up to London to attend the Laura Ashley Spring/Summer Press Show. We’d both previously attended the Autumn/Winter 2015 event back in June. We had a great time visiting the Laura Ashley headquarters to preview the new Spring/Summer collection. Here are some snapshots from the day!
There is a nautical seaside theme to the collection. I love that the spring/summer collection captures and brings back memories of summer on the beach accompanied by a picnic or barbecue.
I can definitely see myself buying this picnic hamper! BBQ fans will really enjoy this barbecue – grill up meat, fish or veggies for an al fresco dinner in your garden or by the sea.
We both loved these adorable coloured jars. They would be a brilliant portable way to stay hydrated in the summer sun! And they are super cute and fun!
There’s nothing quite like traditional British seaside treats! Rock, whippy ice creams and candy floss always remind me good times at the seaside!
I love the kitchenware, especially these mugs and tea towels. The designs are pretty and sophisticated, and will look perfect in any kitchen.
The Laura Ashley team had a little competition going on, on the day. You had to think of a cool and imaginative name for the boat. Me and my sister came up with “Aboat Time” – I was very impressed with that play on words! But I did also like some of the other entries, such as “Laura Splashley” being one of my favourites!
As you will all know, I have a big love for cupcakes! How cute and yummy do these red velvet cupcakes look?!
A big thank you to the Laura Ashley team for inviting us! We had a brilliant time!

I love the nautical theme – that is how our spare bedroom is decorated.
What a beautiful event! I have a true love for fish motif and dishes, so this makes me so happy 🙂 It also makes me want summer to come up!!
