Driving the trend for vintage prints and countryside-chic is Cath Kidston. Her eclectic shops are full of retro-inspired clothing, accessories, homeware and kids clothing. Cath Kidston has enjoyed cult status, and the products are often seen in the pages of fashion and interior magazines. If you like your style girly, you'll love Cath Kidston! It's got a decent celeb following too, including Dakota Fanning, The Saturdays, Kate Middleton and er...Jamie Oliver. We've spent a large amount of time drooling over their laptop bags, iPhone cases giant coffee cups, rain coats and umbrellas. And one day when we're a grown up, we want to live in a cottage with Cath Kidston bedding.
Cath Kidston was started back in 1993 when Cath saved up £15,000 and opened her first shop. Her re-working of traditional English country house style and her own designs led to cult status. Since then, she's collaborated with Milletts, Nokia and Roberts radio among others.
