Here’s the perfect introduction to one of our favourite beauty ranges – the Solomon Islands Collection by Sue Devitt.

This set has everything you need to introduce you to this luxurious cosmetic and skincare line. There’s a Microquatic™ Blue Anti-Aging SPF 30 Primer, Eye & Cheek Palette, Eye Intensifier Pencil in Gold Reef, Lash Intensifier Lengthening Mascara with Bio-energizer Complex, and Deluxe Lip Enhancing Gloss in Coral Sands.

The Southern Seas inspired this latest line, as Sue explains: “I explored the archipelago of 992 Solomon Islands, often by canoe, diving the uncharted reefs. The beautiful underwater world inspired this collection of rich coral, pink, and golden bronze hues.”

You can buy the collection in store now, priced at £35.

Their Asian inspired dishes such as Thai Chicken Curry or Sesame Crusted Salmon sit comfortably next to old favourites like Ribs and Chicken and Mexican Burrito or Enchilada. Also on offer is a wide range of Pasta and Pizzas, and some say the 12” thin crust pizzas are the best to be had in Birmingham!

There is also offers a fantastic lunchtime menu, with specialty sandwiches & wraps served with fries or a bowl of soup from only £4.50.

The wide menu choice and great value for money makes it the perfect venue for parties, and you can even reserve the downstairs areas for private parties of up to 100 guests.

In addition to the menu there’s also an excellent range of wines and cocktails available, providing the perfect addition to your dining experience.

LaLa Rocks boasts a covetable collection of hand-made semi-precious must-haves designed to be worn by men and women. Using onyx, hematite, sparkle rock crystal, lapis, turquoise and rose quartz designs, prices start from just £55.

The Harborne-based brand is just a couple of months old, having been launched by 30-year-old rising star Carla Hancox in December. She started out by making a couple of bracelets for herself and friends, but quickly spotted a successful business opportunity.

With the city’s famous Jewellery Quarter on her doorstep, she is well-placed to source the stones and precious metals. Top of the new season wish list is the stunning ‘ultimate gold’ bracelet, made up of nine carat gold beads set off with a funky skull-cut dyed howlite stone.

Carla explains: “The basis of the product has always been to use the highest quality stones and because they are handmade, each one is unique.

“I have been absolutely overwhelmed by the success LaLa Rocks has enjoyed since it was launched – it has been a non-stop whirl of orders and meetings. The invitation to meet with Harvey Nichols’ buyers was the icing on the cake.

“Harvey Nichols represents exclusive, chic, luxurious products, and that’s exactly what I wanted LaLa Rocks to be when I set the brand up last year. I can’t wait to see the reaction of Harvey Nichols customers to the brand once they’re in situ. To me, being stocked by the UK’s premium retailer is a sign that it was all worth it – LaLa has landed!”

Kevin Breese, general manager of Harvey Nichols Birmingham, added: “We have been so impressed by what Carla has created in such a short space of time. We can really see her collections appealing to both our male and female customers.”

A game of colours that achieves a new and distinctive sense of depth. A contemplation on the significance of line, silhouette and graphics – elements that define the equation connecting substance and void. A reflection on the dialogue between fashion, current trends and contemporary artistic talent.

SHAPE

The jackets with their masculine cut glide over the body, the shoulders delicately suggested to soften the line. Dresses and skirts are longer; ranging from mid-knee to mid-calf – shorter at the back, longer at the front – they possess a graceful air of nonchalance. The trousers, easy on the hip, are slim and svelte at the hem to create a sleek leg-shape.

COLOUR

Black and white as well as pale shades of green, sky blue and pastel pink, framed by leather, knit or silk trims that outline the clothes within the overall silhouette, like precise black brush strokes. Just as a frame emphasises the radiance of the picture it encloses.

ACCESSORIES

The same game of outlines recurs in the see-through PVC maxi bag, with its black and natural details; this also comes in a two-tone version or with reptile skin features. For a final neodesign touch, there is a striking necklace shaped like a collar in rigid plexiglass that repeats the black or white collection leitmotif.

We are very pleased to announce our re-location to the Ground Floor of The Mailbox, where we showcase a selection of our finest products. We are pleased to offer a customised service for all your flower and gift requirements, and our trained florists will be happy to help you with any special requests that you may have.

As part of this special money-can’t-buy prize, you’ll get a front row family ticket (2 adults, 2 children) and your two little Heroes and Princesses will be invited to join the characters on the ice by taking a voyage under the sea in Ariel’s boat on Sunday 18 March during the 6.30pm show.

Running from 14-18 March, Disney On Ice Princesses & Heroes is set to take audiences on a fairytale journey through some of the most classic moments in Disney history. As well as Ariel’s underwater adventure, you’ll also get to see Prince Philip face the evil forces in a race to rescue Sleeping Beauty’s Aurora and Rapunzel attempting to escape the tower in which she is captured. Tiana will continue her quest to own a restaurant in New Orleans and Jasmine will discover a whole new world with Aladdin. You will also join Snow White as she searches for her one true love and the show’s host, Tinkerbell, will help make Cinderella and Belle’s dreams come true.
