New Vests Ahoy

Hello,

Well, it’s been a while. I hope everyone welcomed in the New Year with a glass of bubbles in their hand, dancing on the table. 2012 feels good already.

The new vests are in the shop. The lovely folk at Rapanui have printed them for me and you with much love and care. Modeled by Rachael Jones, director and opp shop queen and Laurie Hastings, talented illustrator and chocolate eating professional. They’re available in white, grey, fuchsia and turquoise, S, M and L.

Last day for Christmas orders: 19th December

Hello.

The last date to order Chritmas goodies from Yoga Will Save the World .COM (UK only by this late date sadly) is 19th December. The new vests are not arriving at Yoga Will Save the World HQ until the 21st which is a close shave but a Christmas miss nonetheless. There are however beautiful hoodies, cushions, cards and prints to be purchased.

*POOF* went the vests

All the Yoga Will Save the World vests have sold out.

One is in France being worn by an artist sitting in French cafes drawing. One is winging it’s way to the sunny shores of Australia to be worn a dancing lady with three of the most gorgeous children. 2 boxes of vests and hoodies have hopped over the channel to prance down the Champs Elysees. In London along the shores of the Thames you may see them on an actress, on rowers and coxes, on a writer who goes by the name of Panther, on crazy London cyclists and on that girl running like a greyhound around Richmond Park.

Thank you to everyone.

I am getting the next vests to Yoga Will save the World HQ pronto. I decided to pick the design that was ‘loved’ by that dancing mum who was the first to order off the YWSTW online shop. It’s going to look a little something like this:

My friend and illustrator Laurie Hastings

Laurie Hastings is one of my bestest of friends. She is also a wonderful illustrator. You can see her talent on her site. She went to Chelsea College of Art and Design and then to Edinburgh Art College and her amazing-ness just grew.

Some of the things Laurie loves: Hot dogs and dead dogs (the chocolate version), her sisters Chloe and Georgia, dancing to Walking on Sunshine and laughing like a banshee.

Laurie has created 30 limited edition screen prints in black and gold of a Yogi Goddess. You can buy them here or pop them on your Christmas list and work on being good.

 

A deer, a fox and a possessed rabbit.

Yesterday I drew a deer in the dwi pada sirsasana. Then I drew a fox in hanumasana. Then I tried to draw a yogi rabbit, but he started to look a bit possessed and grew these enormous gorilla arms and I thought perhaps it was best to stop drawing for the day.

Plotting to perhaps put these nimble furry friends on some organic canvas bags. They need names too. Feel free to suggest some. x

LAUNCHED.

The Yoga Will Save the World online gift shop has opened.

If you’d like to sign up to it’s monthly ramble do so here.

The shop sells beautiful yoga gifts, collaborations between artists, friends and dreamers. The first collection is small, some items are limited editions.

Take a look around, it’s open all hours. Tell people about it if you like what you find there.

A work of art is the unique result of a unique temperament.– Oscar Wilde

 

All the clothes sold are made by Rapanui, an organic, ethical and low carbon company. Paper goods are recycled or printed on FSC paper. Our felt cushions are made from 100% recycled plastic. When we ship to you products arrive nude with a little string around their waist just to hold them in.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.- Dalai Lama

We want to create more beautiful yoga gifts. The monthly ramblings will tell you about new collaborations, products and ideas we have brewing. We’re currently designing a unisex t-shirt and there has been a request for yoga inspired hair bobbles and knickers.
