Due to popular demand we’ve brought back our style & colour consultations to help customers to find their perfect pieces from our new collection. Let us take you through the style stories to find the perfect colours for you.

Lorna Wiltshire, independent British stylist and personal shopper, has also returned with us and been on-hand to teach customers about how to wear colour with confidence and taking them through which emerging summer trends are best suited to them.

The previous consultations have been such a success and we’re delighted at the response from those of you on Twitter.

The last consultation is tomorrow at the Guildford shop:

Guildford- Thursday 17th May

3 Chapel Street, GU1 3UH
Shop Manager: Annie Braybrook
Telephone: 01483 449 210

We look forward to seeing you all there!

The new April edition of Covent Garden Journal pays homage to the decadent

1950′s era in Brora cashmere.

Cashmere Fitted Round Neck Cardigan – £219

This is a signature Brora piece and an everlasting favourite with all our customers. We ‘ve responded to your demands with this fitted cardigan; an adaptation of our immensely popular classic v neck one, nipping in at the right places and flattering every figure. Apart from the fact that the item is genuinely soft-to-the-touch and so delicate against your skin, in this gorgeous lime green it’s also too irresistible not to get noticed; a notion that is clearly shared by the fashion industry.

Internationally, fashion week saw an abundance of colour cascading down the runway in neon shades of coral and yellow, blue and pink pops, along with the reds and oranges that also splashed across the catwalk. Colour-blocking is still a trend of the moment, but none more current than the deliciously retro palette of green; emerald, lime, jade and citrine were amongst the must colours to inject into your ensemble.

Cashmere V Neck Jumper – £198	Cashmere Ribbed Cardigan – £289

Cashmere Vintage Lace Knit Cardigan – £269	Cashmere Cropped V Neck Cardigan – £209

Whether you’re dressing for evening or day wear the simplest way to introduce a bit of intensity into you wardrobe is with a cardigan or jumper. Our unique blend of lime green isn’t too over-bearing or stark, it has been mixed to complement your most basic of colours like black, as well as to suit other brights like rhubarb in our Retro style story and not have you looking out of place.

Look lovely in lime the Brora way!

As much as we enjoy looking at the Brora Baby snaps you send us through our Facebook and Twitter, we love seeing your four-legged bundles of joy also! Over the past month we’ve been inundated with cute and cuddly pictures of dogs and cats alike who adore Brora as much as their fellow human companions do.

Could it be that we need to start producing a collection for pets?

After all, a dog’s life is not what it used to be, it consists of facials, the latest designer outfits and Swaroski encrusted collars a.k.a ‘bling’.

It is only natural that they would soon start to crave our sumptuous Brora blankets over the regular cotton doggy ones; at least you can get your bed back now.

This is the charming little Chihuahua Honey. The pint-sized pup lives a luxurious life better than your average dog, her owner Hayley works in Brora head office and has at least half a dozen lambswool blankets for her.

The feline following are also big fans of our lambswool rugs also. They do tend to have a reputation for craving the finer things in life and turning their little noses up at anything less.

It is really no surprise to us that your pets love our and lambswool rugs; they’re great for picnics and decorating the sofa or snuggling down with, but we quickly discovered on a past photo shoot the appeal of the rugs.

Little did we know it would make such a great image.

The cosy looking set attracted the attention of Victoria’s, whippets Honey Bee and Flee Fly, a pair of pampered pooches who have been modelling for Brora since they were tiny rumbustious puppies.

Online, catalogue and print! Not many models can make such a boast.

All of you pictures have got us inspired so thank-you and look out for more Pets In Brora.

The arrival of spring brought with it five fabulously rich Brora brights that are sumptuous by cashmere and colour. Developed from our fashion stories, the purpose of which was to help you feel more confident about mixing colours and to show you how they can be introduced into your everyday wear for a forward fashionable look.

Electric Blue	Crimson	Lime	Coral	Rhubarb

However, the seasonal colours of the moment that will be whipping your wardrobe into shape, are Electric Blue and Rhubarb. Choose the colour that you most like; it could be both, take a look at the pieces available to you and add to shopping bag.

Victoria and the design team absolutely love colour; the collection speaks this for itself, nevertheless exhibiting a bold flair doesn’t necessarily mean it is done in a loud way. Here at Brora we like to use colour more as a highlighted addition, rather than a focal attraction to complement the rest of the pieces as an accent.

Skinny Printed Suede Belt – £79

Here the Electric Blue suede belt works with the colour scheme of the cashmere folk waistcoat by picking up its blue detailing and giving the look more character.

Lace Trim Camisole – £35

When worn underneath the sheer silk shirt the camisole immediately intensifies the light rhubarb base colour of the piece to make the shirt stand out more.

Tell us whether you’re a True Blue or more of the Think Pink type.

Your journey to a more colour confident you starts here, it’s that simple!

This is three month old Sebastian looking snuggly, cocooned in his sumptuous brora cashmere blanket with a cheeky smirk on his adorable face.

Well done to his mother Sacha for capturing the picture and posting it up on our Facebook page. She says of Sebastian’s cashmere blanket: “Mummy will be fashioning it as a scarf once he is done”.

We love looking at snaps of your bundles of  joy modelling Brora. Here are previous Brora Babies Elliot and Millicent looking simply precious.

Sweet Seb is wrapped in the exquisitely soft cashmere knitted blanket that proved very popular with mums and sold out as quickly as it went on sale.

However, we still have a selection of blankets available for you to drape your babies in, perhaps a as a gift to an expectant mother; a nice gesture in time for Mother’s Day on March 18th.

                                                         Cashmere Baby Blanket – £129

Baby Sebastian’s hat is currently available in both Ink and Mulberry, which really gives off that snuggle factor; hence that smile of contentment.

Cashmere Bonnet – £42		Cashmere Mittens – £32

And why not go all the way with a cosy pair of Cashmere Fair Isle Bootees to match; over-accessorising with patterns is never tacky when worn by little people!

We love looking through the pictures you send us or post on our Facebook wall of your children and babies dressed cosily in Brora, so keep them coming!

Even the four-legged kind; Victoria often uses her beloved pooches on Brora photo shoots. You can now add pictures of your Pets In Brora, an album on our Facebook page.
