Lacy Lowie Winter Woollies from Dollydagger

Ever since we showed you this Lowie's rose-patterned beret last week, I've been investigating what other gorgeous knitwear they've got up their sleeves for this winter. And, while I might not have the necessary pennies at the moment, this beautiful black and white lace-effect mohair range has shot to the top of my wishlist. This Victorian-inspired scarf is £65.

These fingerless gloves would keep me cosy while madly typing away in the Artic conditions of my little home office without making me look like a hobo. I like the idea of pairing them with a black jumper dress, thick tights and some shoe-boots. But is the £38 price tag too steep?

The matching beanie hat will keep my ears warm and hide bad hair days too. Like the rest of the range, it's also available grey or teal blue, and will set you back £38. And last but not least, my personal favourite: the knee socks. Combining an element of saucy Victoriana with comfort and warmth. What's not to love? Maybe the £48 price tag, but something tells me that the soft mohair wool and the adorable lace trim might make them worth the expense. Feeling flush? Get your mitts on the whole range, from Dollydagger.

Tea Towel Tuesday: Stuart Gardiner Seasonal Foods

Waaaaaaay back in 2009 I showed you this seasonal vegetable tea towel, and now the range has expanded, and there's even more things to get excited about at Rockett St George. These variations are all £10 each.

Flowers...


Seafood...


Wild foods...


And of course, if you want to buy the vegetable version, well that's in stock too. Heh. Vegetable stock.

Space Invaders Mirrors

If you're a regular reader, you'll know that the Domestic Sluts have a little bit of a geeky side. We like video games lots, especially the old ones. Pacman is great (although Ms. Pacman can be a bit of a stroppy little madam) and Asteroids is all very well. But Space Invaders will always be the very best for me.

They make for excellent wall designs too, and I reckon my bathroom will look much better with one of these Space Invader mirrors. You can choose them waving their arms up, or their arms down. They're made to order and they're £45 each. I spotted them over on our sponsor's site Hunkydory Home and I want them immediately.

You're having a carafe

Due to being in the right place at the right time, I got given a rather snazzy voucher to spend at Naked Wines. And spend it I did! So next week, Sluttery HQ is going to look an awful lot like an Oddbins. So I'm going to jazz up my drunken lush wine-buying with some fancy things.

I've ordered a few reds, so I've decided that as the win was free, I can treat myself to a sexy carafe. Y'know, because that helps red wine 'breathe'. Honestly, I don't know enough about wine to understand what that really means, but I do know that this carafe is damn pretty. The coloured ball top is cut so it doesn't roll about the place, but you can also let it nestle in the base of the carafe as well. The carafe itself is mouthblown and it's a perfect shape. It's £75 from Design House Stockholm.

Duffy London Christmas Cards

I've been coveting these Christmas cards for weeks, but no one wants Christmas cards two months before the big day, do they? These Christmas cards from Duffy London at Hidden Art Shop are all handmade, and inspired by London street signs.


Rudolph Road is apparently in Plaistow. Anyone live there?


The cards are printed onto sustainable cotton canvas, which makes them super special. They're all handmade and they're £4.60 each.


Can't decide between them? There's a pack of eight available too. Granted at £30.87 they're the most expensive cards I've ever written about, but they are all handmade. You'll just have to save them for your most special friends.

Shoe Porn: Irregular Choice Boots

No-one does party shoes better than Irregular Choice, and with these boots they've really excelled themselves. The metallic black fabric, black suede, velvet lining and over-sized ribbon all scream luxury, while thankfully the £79 price tag does not.

They're called Abigail's Party, but banish thoughts of Demis Roussos, cheesy-pineapple nibbles and chiffon dresses. These ornate boots are more about decadent Christmas parties than awkward suburban gatherings. They come in burgundy and gold too.

The Perfect Console Table

I absolutely adore this table. Blue furniture that doesn't look out of place is a rare thing. If something is blue, it's going to stand out. And getting the rest of your room to compliment it isn't easy. But, Habitat came up trumps with this Milton console table (and I've been waiting ages for it to be back in stock so I could show it to you).

It's thin, so it's perfect for a hallway or a narrow space, and it'll look lovely with a contrasting bunch of flowers resting on top. It's £430, but that glossy lacquer will look beautiful even in 20 years time.
