New sponsor: Boutiko

Welcome to my new sponsor, Boutiko. Boutiko's USP is that it sells accessories and homewares which have 'an ethical twist' meaning that all of its products are organic, fair trade, recycled or locally made.

I'm looking for a summer bag to replace my heavy leather burden, so what about this striped and ruffled soft cotton jersey number?

Smart recycled leather accessories: luggage labels for the style-savvy traveller (only £3.95, too) and a handbag-must for the Knowledge-free Londoner, a semi-disguised A-Z.

And if these are as soft as they look, then I'm definitely adding one of these light jersey scarves to my early autumn wishlist. Striped, soft and more ruffles - perfect.

Visit Boutiko for lots of other guilt-free shopping, and there is a big sale on too as Tara, the owner, is working on refining the range.
