Mad hattery

Monday, May 23rd, 2011

Whether it’s for a wedding, a christening, a day at the races or even just to disguise a bad hair day, a hat can make a world of difference to an outfit.

As was evident at the royal wedding, hats come in all shapes, sizes and degrees of ugliness, and probably the kindest thing that can be said of Beatrice’s bizarre bonce topper is that it raised a lot of money for charity. Mad hattery indeed!

Meanwhile, here at the Frockery we have a selection of hats in stock which are guaranteed to turn heads, none of which have a Philip Treacy price tag. Here are a few of our current favourites.

For more millinery inspiration, we’d recommend dropping by Off With Her Head where you’ll find some truly awesome vintage inspired creations, all hand made by the lovely Lisa.

You’ve got a head, so get a hat! Or a fascinator, even. But not a pretzel, please.

Changes at the frock face

Friday, May 13th, 2011

We have been quiet on the Frockery Talk front as we have been busy making changes to the website based on customer feedback and after taking advice from our techie frockers.

A big thank you to all who completed our survey and to those who emailed suggestions directly. And congratulations to Hollie H, who is the winner of our £20 gift voucher draw.

Happily, the feedback we received about our website was generally very positive and survey respondents reported a good level of user friendliness and satisfaction.

Our regular visitors will already have noticed some changes to the site, including a slightly  different front page design and much needed improvements to our product images. Further minor changes are planned for our checkout system to simplify and speed up the process.

Other suggestions we have yet to implement include an expansion of our children’s and homeware departments which we hope to proceed with in the near future.

Meanwhile, we are always happy to receive comments on any aspects of our service and are very grateful to our lovely customers for taking the time to let us know what they think of The Frockery.
