This week, Fan Friday is all about how pastels don’t have to be naff when they’re Sweet & Sharp. See our Fan Fridays album on Facebook for the latest shares from our fans, and don’t forget to hashtag your Skinny laMinx goodies with #Lookatmyskinny or email them to studio@skinnylaminx.com

Sweet & Sharp
When shooting our Lookbook 2014/15, the Sweet & Sharp look was one that came as a bit of a surprise to me. I’m not a huge fan of pastels (they can be a bit naff, can’t they?) But when they’re mixed up with acidic, zingy brights, those pastels take on a whole different feel. Discover the …

WTB?
Well, it’s more like “what the Soft Bucket”, actually. If you take a look at our online products catalogue, you’ll see that we’ve gone completely buckets over these multi-purpose fabric vessels, and are making them in all shapes and flavours! My personal favourite (at this minute) is the reversible Abacus design, now available in Inky …

OHA16: Rex Trueform
The Open House Architecture tour I went on last weekend – OHA16 in the series – is one I’d been looking forward to for some time, as I’d always wanted to see inside the Rex Trueform buildings, which have been out of use as clothing factories since the mid 1990s.

She’s a clever lady, and something of an icon to me, which is why I’m …

Jungle Bungalow
Jungle Bungalow is the first of our 2014/15 Lookbook themes, which seems like just the ticket after the gloriously Summery weather we just had in Cape Town this weekend. Mmm, flipflops, bamboo, sand between the toes, shady palms… I just can’t wait! Last week, we released our latest Products catalogue (see it here), with lots …

Fan Fridays – From the minis
We’ve got the little guys in mind for this Fan Friday feature, and we’re kicking off with these little darlings, from @lillelykke and @jen_pedersen on Instagram. The bad, sad news about these pics is that neither of these Mini laMinx baby tees is for sale any longer. Don’t be mad! What is still for sale is my …
