We're back!! We extended our Christmas break for a few weeks to catch up with our four month old, who recently decided to stop sleeping... (Apparently, he doesn't want to miss out on anything!)
I hope everybody loved all the gorgeous Christmas gifts we posted out in November & December - you kept us busy with gift wrapping!


Pink Bobble Hat (left, USD $35, less 20% for Aust. buyers) and Grey Cable Wristwarmers (right, USD $30, less 20% for Aust. buyers) by Me and Tex
The pink bobbles around Me and Tex's winter hat (above) are the cutest! Designer Judith Macrae is a Sydney-based visual artist who loves painting & drawing, good design and is excited by the many different ways to express creativity - including knitting!

Blue Aviator Helmet (left, USD $40, less 20% for Aust. buyers) and Pink Bow Cotton Beanie (right USD $30, less 20% for Aust. buyers) by Me and Tex
Judith leant to knit as a child & remembers her first experience of creating something with her own hands. Her range of unique hand-knitted accessories reveal her love of different colours & textures - especially natural fibres like wool & mohair.

Skinny Red Stripy Scarf (left, USD $38, less 20% for Aust. buyers) and Black Glamour Headband (right, USD $18, less 20% for Aust. buyers) by Me and Tex
By carefully adding little details and playing with colour combinations, Judith weaves her personality into the Me and Tex range. Each piece is equally cute & cosy! You can find more of Judith's knits at www.meandtex.etsy.com.

After the success of their winter debut, Hope Street Markets is on again this weekend! The line up will include 15 new designers plus a heap of local musicians for Saturday's independent music evening. If you are looking for gifts, you can even have your purchases gift wrapped for free by Frankie Magazine.


Among the new additions is Sydney label iMok. Best friends Jen & Sandra began iMok by applying their amazing stencil art to t-shirts. They've transported a range of unique characters from the pages of their sketchbooks into the world of fashion. The current collection is titled "The Time Is Now" - a combination of the old & new, tried & true. Each graphic encourages you to take a closer look at the finer details that life can bring. It includes limited edition super soft top & tees for guys, gals & kids, as well as accessories such as the iMok signature button up scarf and hand drawn trucker hats and badges.
