For the last few years Hannah Zakari has been ‘the’ place to shop for handmade jewellery. With an unrivalled selection of unusual baubles and trinkets, the Glasgow based online shop has become synonymous with indie style.

Well, it just got bigger. With a brand spanking new design and loads of new features, the site now stocks accessories, bags, clothes and stationery. I’ve picked out a few of my favourites from Eclectic Shock, FluffsStuffs, Hoolala, Hannah Zakari, I’m Smitten and Laurafallulah.

Head over to www.hannahzakari.co.uk. And check back regularly as the stock is frequently updated and new designers are introduced regularly.

Mahar Drygoods is a real gem of a site for Friday afternoon surfing. It’s stocked full of vintage and artisan crafted goods for kids. Owner Robert Mahar collaborates with more than two dozen indie designers, artists and craftspeople, many of whom create items exclusively for his shop.

The site has a lovely nostalgic feel to it which I think will appeal to everyone’s ‘inner child’. Each product has been carefully selected and there is a good selection to choose from including clothing, accessories, toys, gifts and music.

Surf and shop at www.mahardrygoods.com. I’m going back for another look.

I was sorry to hear that Purple Pink and Orange will be closing down at the end of May. Their army of talented of designers has created a diverse range of artwork, accessories, bath stuff, bags, homeware, jewellery and toys.

Before they shut up shop they’re offering massive discounts of up to 40%! There are some real bargains to be had but get in there quickly, things are flying off the shelves!

Quick, go to www.purplepinkandorange.com.

I love online shops that have a variety of products made by different designers. I love choice and having a good old rummage. Take Sodafine, for example. They have clothes, shoes, jewellery, accessories, stationery, bath stuff and even a bit of vintage. And they have a whole line up of talented designers, including owner Erin Weckerle’s own knitwear brand, Purldrop.
