The Cath Kidston sale is currently in progress on the company’s website. As regular readers will know, I am v. partial to Cath Kidston but bristle with indignation at the RRPs. This time around, some of the discounts are stingy but others are pretty good, so I thought I’d round up the most bargainous of the bunch for you. Here they are, divided into the website sections:
Accessories: nothing to write home about here, unless you’re in the market for thick woolly scarves.
Bags: bonanza! The cowboy tote bag (left), made from oilcloth with leather trim, is reduced from £55.00 to £30.00.
I love the cowboy print – I even have it on my bedroom wallpaper – and there are a few cowboy bags in the sale section this time. The cowboy messenger bag is reduced from £38.00 to £25.00. The cowboy bucket bag is reduced from £40.00 to £25.00. I hope this doesn’t mean that the cowboy print is for the chop…
Bathroom: washbags down from £18.00 to £12.00.
Bedroom: the super-cute mini cowboy cot bumper is reduced from £35.00 to £15.00. The matching reversible quilt (right) is down from £50.00 to £25.00. See what I mean about all cowboy stuff on special? However other little reversible quilts are down to £25.00 too.
Clothing: wow, these are the dregs! In general, I find the Cath Kidston clothing to be hit and miss: it’s a fine line between Nancy Mitford and Bag Lady.
Homeware: nothing that stands out.
Kids: this bobble hat (above) is reduced from £16.00 to £5.00. Such a shame that it is child-sized! Little woolly cardigans are reduced from £25.00 to £12.00.
Phew! I think we’re there…
