It is with some sadness that I heard Principles was one of the latest casualties of the recession. Brilliant for basics and petites, in recent times I’d noticed how modern they had become and I applauded them for it.  The shops closed, followed by the concessions in department stores so no presence at all on the high street. However, I have just struck gold and you can too, if you’re quick.

Principles now has an online site with great discounts available. I’ve just bagged this fabulous jumpsuit for about £35, less than the price shown for some reason. Originally £89, this is a great item, well made  in a great quality fabric. I’m chuffed as it arrived the following day and I’ve never liked waiting.  For further details http://www.principlesoutlet.co.uk/pws/Home.ice but don’t delay as I suspect it might not be there for much longer.
