A year in the life.....


2012 is coming to an end and it's been a whirlwind year for the PoM team. The last 12 months have seen an abundance of new designs, our first model & a very special new arrival.

This year Chris & Simon have brought in more new designs than ever before, in excess of 500 new additions to our fashion jewellery & scarf ranges have been launched since January and they've become some of our most popular designs to date. Our butterfly scarves in particular have been topping the best sellers list again & again.

A very welcome addition to the PoM family this year was our super pretty model Tilly. Letting natural beauty speak for itself is really important to us,
if you've met any of us you'll already know that we're not high maintenance & we're all working women with hectic lives, (who really has time to apply a full face of make up when you have the school run to do?) so it was great to find a model with the same ethos - a smidge of lipstick and we're good to go, and we definitely don’t do airbrushing! We don’t need to and we wouldn’t want to.

Our Tilly is always enthusiastic, great to work with and we think she shows off our designs beautifully. And she certainly has the Midas touch, if Tilly models it, it sells!  We hope she continues to work with us for some time, at least until next year when she heads of to Drama College – so just remember, when you see her accepting that Bafta, we spotted her first!

The second new addition this year was PoM girl Brittany's baby girl Beaux, she really is a bundle of loveliness and although we miss Brittany while she's on maternity leave, we wish her & family a wonderful first Christmas together.

Although we hate to wish the time away we also can't wait to see what 2013 brings. The PoM Team love looking through samples & choosing their favourite pieces for the new season, as any group of women would! We can't tell you what we'll be launching in spring but we can give you a hint, here's what PoM Director Chris had to say:


‘Our new scarf collection is ultra feminine with luxurious fabrics in a range of ballerina pastels. We are so excited about these gorgeous new soft colours, they flatter any complexion and look irresistible when they are displayed together’
‘We’ve also spent the last few months sourcing the most beautiful beads and decorative findings for our jewellery collections and although we still love the vintage look, we have really enjoyed putting together some more modern designs in-house, it’s so nice to bring the creative process back home where it belongs'

Well, that's about it from us for 2012, we hope that it's been a great year for you and wish you health, wealth & happiness for the year to come.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year
The PoM Team
