HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND,
WHATEVER THE WEATHER

From raincoats to indoor picnic ideas, plus cool and comfy kidswear, we’ve got all the inspiration you need to make the most of downtime


Grab your jacket

Autumn's weather is changeable, so be prepared for all eventualities. Raining? Don’t miss your daily walk but do take a weatherproof jacket. Look out for our jackets with water-repellent tech, like this swingy peacoat, sporty hooded parka, or classic trench, which comes in five colours. Sunny? Swap joggers for shorts and get out in the yard. Splash about with the kids in the pool or make a cocktail and steal a few minutes to read a book.

All-day party

Ever-predictable showers? Make it a loungewear-all-day day. Build a den. Eat in the den. Sleep in the den. Embrace a British theme and make bunting to decorate the den. Sunny weekend? Set up a tent in the back yard. Take out blankets, duvets and throws to make it extra cosy. Eat dinner picnic-style under canvas. Read bedtime stories by torchlight. When it’s dark, look for stars.

It’s a jungle in here

Who says picnicware has to be used outside in the summer? If the weather’s not playing ball, throw a rug on the lounge room floor and bring the picnic (and the jungle) inside with our safari-print picnicware featuring lions, leopards, giraffes, gazelles and lush foliage. Made from a sustainable bamboo blend it’s stainproof and dishwasher safe. There’s even a matching cool bag and drinkware
