Cashmere Poncho by Plum Trading

Posted by on May 9, 2012 No comments

Plum Trading’s Cashmere poncho is the ultimate necessity for every woman’s wardrobe!

This was Plum Trading’s first ‘baby’ and has exceeded our expectations. It can be worn in multiple ways; as a poncho, belted, as a scarf, as a wrap, as a snood are just a few examples. Be warned, once you have one you will want more!

Simply the most versatile and stylish piece of cashmere you will ever own. Looks fantastic over jeans or wrapped around the most formal dress and is vital for travelling, or simply looking chic on the school run. Brilliant for those who have trouble with buttons and perfect maternity wear for expectant mum’s. Very flattering over a pregnancy bump and a comfortable clothing choice for baby feeds.

If you are finding it difficult to choose between blonde and taupe, taupe is a good neutral that looks good on blondes and brunettes alike and is good for all seasons while blonde is more summery looking and is better with fair or auburn hair.

One size fits all. Hand wash & dry flat

Unique Gifts for Men

Posted by on September 20, 2011 No comments

It is sometimes difficult to find interesting and unique gifts for the men in your life. We are all bored of buying socks for Dad, slippers for Grandad and a new tie for the hubbie at Christmas. So we thought we would give you a few examples of the unique gifts for men that we have here at The Travelling Souk. This Spanish Fig and Nutmeg Shaving Soap is extremely luxurious against the skin. It creates a smooth lather which soothes and moisturises the skin and the fragrance is just delicious. The unique aspect of this product comes in the form of the beautiful wooden bowl that the soap is packaged in. For only £16.00 this would be a luxury present that any man would greatly receive.

If it is a younger man that you are looking to buy a unique gift for; possibly a son or nephew, this GBR Wash Bag will go down a treat! It is made on the Isle of Wight from genuine recycled sail cloth making it hard wearing and practical. It looks great too, with nautical style appeal it is a perfect gift especially with the 2012 Olympics approaching rapidly!

Christmas Gift Fairs

Posted by on August 11, 2011 No comments

Travelling Souk markets happen all over the UK, mainly during the Christmas Fair season and have raised well over £350,000 for a great number of charities since 2003.  Over the years we have exhibited our amazing selection of unique gifts all over Great Britain. We are the only fair organisers to hold several events in private manor houses not normally open to the public.

What magical ingredient keeps visitors coming back to The Travelling Souk? It has to be location, temptation and sensation! Our venues are captivating and extraordinary; we call them the unseen manor houses of Great Britain sprinkled with a liberal dose of revamped barns and racecourses.

Of course our stallholders are the vital constituent. We are obsessive about selecting the best stallholders. Any stallholder who has joined The Travelling Souk is in special in some way and offers unusual gifts for friends and family that you cannot buy elsewhere.

Don’t think for a moment though that these are places for shopping alone. They are places for meeting and feasting with irresistible home cooked fare second to none.

So, punctuate your hectic week!  Pick up your friends and take a trip to an elegant place where parking is easy, shopping for unusual Christmas gifts, personalised Birthday gifts or just unique gifts for friends is inspirational and, most importantly, giving is fun with every purchase supporting our hosts’ charities.
