Win his 'n' hers vintage shoes! (closed 28th February 2014)

TO CELEBRATE VALENTINE'S DAY we've teamed up with agnes & norman to give away two pairs of beautiful, handmade vintage design shoes - a pair for each of you (or two pairs for you if you like!). Enter our competition below - but first let us tell you a bit about this exciting new vintage shoe brand...

In 1927 Agnes Stafford & Norman Simpson got married. It was snowing so Agnes had to be carried to the church so as not to spoil her shoes. Eight children and 22 grandchildren later, in 2001, one of those granddaughters became a shoe designer, travelling to shoe factories around the world. Several years later in 2008 she launched her own bridal shoe company. Four years on, with the bridal shoe company firmly established, Rachel Simpson returned to her roots to launch her latest venture and in 2013 a brand new and exciting vintage shoe brand was born.

Now agnes & norman want to bring together love birds everywhere and are giving away a pair of his 'n' hers* shoes, perfect for that first date, anniversary dinner or simply walking somewhere hand in hand. One lucky couple could win a pair of shoes each from agnes & norman by clicking here. Competition closes 28th February 2014.

T&Cs * Prize is equivalent to two pairs of shoes from the current online collection. No cash alternative, subject to availability. Prize can be his 'n' hers, hers 'n' hers, or his 'n' his.

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
