These beautiful, simple designs from Elk Accessories will match those grey winter days perfectly. Elk designers Adam and Marnie use fine quality raw materials sourced from all over the world to produce their comfortable + stylish accessory ranges each season. I spied the elk-themed Lambswool Hoodie (AUD $99) and Lambswool Hottie Cover & Hot Water Bottle (AUD $85) in Pentimento, Newtown a couple of weeks ago & fell in love with the whole Winter Textiles range when I visited their web site at www.elkaccessories.com.au.
Each of the products pictured is available in both grey or charcoal, with the Felt Satchel (AUD $55) also available in chocolate. I just love the sense of balance created by the stitching detail across the front of the Satchel. The Lambswool Blanket (AUD $270) is truly something special - soft & warm with a gentle square patterned texture.
Elk is based in Melbourne, and (lucky for us all) is stocked by independent retailers throughout Australia and New Zealand. Australian stockists include some of the following:
NSW - Pentimento (Newtown), Split Watermelon Design (Surry Hills), Plane Tree Farm (Double Bay), Lilifields (Paddington) & Stem (Balmain).
VIC - Luft (North Fitzroy), Belki (North Carlton), Hub (City), Husk (City, Albert Park & Hawkesburn Village). WA - Empire (Osborne Park).
QLD - Olive Home (City, Paddington), Kova (Fortitude Valley).
ACT - Don't Tell Phyllis (Kingston).
SA - Uccello (Murray Bridge).
TAS - La Cigale (Launceston).
P.S. I especially love greys due to the wonderful variations of almost-colour in my grey tabby's coat. Fellow cat-people can glimpse his beauty at www.meanderings.com.au!
