With the sun set to be shining this weekend there has never been a better time to dust of the BBQ and get sizzling! But forget the burnt burgers and bog-standard sausages, surprise your guests with a deliciously different salmon burger. On a recent excursion to Portobello Market I came across a vendor selling some very similar treats and since have been searching high and low for a recipe.

We realised that we have mentioned Anna Lou jewellery quite a bit lately on the blog – but it’s only due to the fabulous new products and press we have been treated to lately! So it is with great pleasure that I announce the Key to Wonderland necklace back in stock!

We try not to use this blog for tooting our horn too much. But yesterday was a special day with the arrival of Anna Lou's first child - a healthy 9lb sweetheart called Wilbur AND we were all over the Tuesday glossies. Our Disney playing card cuffs were in Grazia's Fashion Charts and New! Magazine dedicated a whole page to our I Love Camping necklace.

Today’s post is an extra special one, as we say huge congratulations to Anna, Aidie and their new baby boy. After months of excitement in the ALoL office everyone is thrilled that we have a new addition to the team. No name for the little man yet, but knowing Anna we’re sure there will be a brand new Anna Lou collection especially for boys soon!.

Spotted this on Lauren Laverne's Twitter. This is the cutest video we've seen in ages and kind of summerises how we feel on Mondays. Oi Mr Turtle! Give us a lift!
