Would you believe it? I’m in Australia! And it’s blooming far away. Having spent a day or two on planes I’m rather tired, but have had a swim this morning, the sun is shining, and Nina is coming to pick me up any minute so I mustn’t write too long….. ooops. She’s here. Off to lunch. Back soon…

Just had a lovely drive round Melbourne, and Nina took me for lunch at the famous Stoke House on the beach. Delicious grub, sun shining, I’m definitely here.

Lunch on the beach

Then off to visit a few of our stockists. Chambermaid, a Husk, and Syrup. Just trying to get my bearings. Melbourne is lovely, quite villagey, boutiquey. We ended up in Hampton with the gorgeous Kirsty at Syrup. She was lovely, the shop was lovely, quite destination, a little way out of town along the beach road. I love Melbourne!

Supper at Nina and Mac’s (Mac is a wine man so I’ve landed on my feet there!). Chargrilled fresh broad beans out of their pods with a bottle of rose, and delicious lamb and asparagus with one of Mac’s reds. Dee-lish-ous……

Back to my Kooky hotel for sleeeeeeeeeep.

More soon, (look out for our trunk show at Morrison in Chadstone on Thursday)

Alex

We’ve all been so busy recently there hasn’t been much time to update you on where you can get you hands on the jewellery, so here we go!

Excitingly, Alex Monroe pieces are going to be much more readily available around the UK thanks to John Lewis….we have launched with everyone’s favourite department store in four locations, which means that our jewellery is now available in Edinburgh, Cardiff, Cheadle and Bluewater.

John Lewis are updating their image, and it looks like they’re really going to town….check out the Bluewater jewellery department below:

Of course, we still love selling to cute little boutiques too, fans in the West Country should head to Qetty Bang Bang, who recently opened in Tetbury – I can’t wait to visit when I’m back visiting my Mum & Dad!

Another new stockist is The Hambledon Gallery in Blandford, Dorset. We already sell to The Hambledon in Winchester, but the Gallery is the ‘Mother’ shop – both look like they have a gorgeous range of products – and I’m not just talking about Alex Monroe!!

But just to update you, other deliveries we’ve made in the last few weeks are, in London: Charles Fish, EcOne, Matches and Mitsukoshi.

And around the UK: Jason Charles, Pearl & Queenie and Ruby & Tallulah.

Overseas, we’ve covered quite a few continents: Masscob in Spain….Cord Three, Lisette and Tomorrowland in Japan….Herta and Kit of Elsinore in Sweden….Syrup, Quincy and mico-mico.com in Australia….and, last but not least Creme in Bahrain.

For customers in desperate need of a Bumblebee, head to Fenwick or Fortnum & Mason in London, Silverado in Brighton and Chapmans in Durham.  Better be quick though, we’ve only sent them in the last couple of days and they never last long!!

For further details on any of the shops mentioned, just check our ‘Stockists’ page.

Bye for now, Emma x

As we head towards another Bank Holiday weekend, here’s where you should be heading for a fix of new Alex Monroe designs…..

If you’re in London, why not take a wander down Columbia Road this Sunday? Treat yourself to some gorgeous flowers and then pop into the lovely Cerise, who have just taken delivery of some new Lucky Charm pieces….

We will shortly be launching our ‘Posey’ collection in Liberty, but they should be fully stocked with all the Classics now too.

For fans in the West Country, head to Bloomsbury in Bath, or Bristol as they’ve both had recent deliveries. And Foundation in the Cotswolds should be well stocked in their Cheltenham and Stow-On-The-Wold stores too.

Elsewhere, you can check out Skirt in Newcastle, The Hambledon in Winchester and soon-to-open new stockist, Pearl & Queenie in Hastings.
