Denim Event for Leukaemia CARE is a success!

September 2nd, 2011 § 0 comments § permalink

First of all, we want to say a big thank-you to our wonderful customers who came along to our Denim Event last Thursday night. We all had a great evening and raised a huge £400 for Leukaemia CARE! It’s so lovely to be able to share our new collection looks with you all, I hope you’re excited as we are – we feel our new denim brands in particular are a great addition to our range. Thanks to Mandy and Lauren from Leukaemia CARE who did a fantastic job with the raffle and the fab goodie bags!

On the night our models showcased a variety of different looks each featuring different denim styles; bootcut, skinny and straight jeans complimented a range of key looks for the season. Russell and Bromley footwear and accessories completed each look perfectly and by the end of the night I think we all felt inspired for the season ahead – albeit with a lengthy wishlist! Whilst the team from Umberto Gianni were on hand with hair styling tips and demonstrations, the rest of us were busy indulging on beautiful fashion inspired shortbread courtesy of Angela Veronica Cakes.

For those of you who missed out, our new brands AG Jeans and Denham are now available to buy online here

As the weather is changing and September has arrived, the time has come to update those wardrobes and start looking ahead to the new season. The end of the month sees our full collection fashion show – watch this space for details!

It’s a busy day today here at Stripes! The Tea Party is off to a great start, with delicious cakes baked by Angela Veronica Cakes (I can personally recommend the cranberry and white chocolate), beautiful china provided by Royal Tea and some super raffle prizes – we are having a lovely time!

Let’s not forget why we’re raising money though, Macmillan Cancer Support is an incredible charity and their work does genuinely improve the lives of those affected by cancer. What’s more, they rely on voluntary donations for 99% of their income. So far today our lovely customers have been very generous and we hope to continue fundraising throughout the weekend, if you’re unable to come into store but are still keen to donate, here’s a link to the Macmillan donations page. Anyway, we’re off for a cuppa… Cheerio!

Raising money for Leukaemia CARE in Moda Bella Fashion show

April 4th, 2011 § 0 comments § permalink

We love getting involved with local charities, so when Mandie Fitzgerald from Leukaemia CARE asked us to host the Moda Bella fashion show on 31st March we were pleased to get involved.

The evening was a huge success raising over £600 for Leukaemia CARE a national charity based in Worcester.  Leukaemia CARE exists to provide vital care and support to all those whose lives have been affected by leukaemia, lymphoma, myeloma and the allied blood disorders.

The wives and girlfriends of the Worcester Warriors Rugby team were fantastic models and the evening involved a number of Worcester independent businesses including Barbarella, You, Umberto Giannini and Onvu image consultant, Rosanagh Wilson .

Guests were treated to two informal fashion shows from Stripes with styling advice from Claire (Stripes co-owner) and Rosanagh a stylist and image consultant.  There was also a beauty and hair demonstration from You and Umberto Giannini, and a raffle with some fantastic prizes from the businesses involved.

Thank you to the Stripes team for all their hard work and to Mandie for organising such a fun event for a worthy cause.
