Whether you’re in need of some dinner party-ready homewares or a new dress to pair with tights as autumn approaches, Sonia @48 has you covered. 

GET COSY WITH CANDLES

No dinner party (indoor or outdoor) is complete without a dancing candle or two. Cue Olive Tree Home’s beautiful, locally-poured candles made using eco soy wax and finished with a lead-free wick. Lovely. 

£35

POP IT LIKE IT’S HOT

Open your bottles like a pro with Retreat Home’s super-chic stainless steel bottle opener complete with rustic rattan handle. Small and chic, you’ll want to keep it on show rather than hiding it away in the kitchen drawer.

£14.95

TAKE SHADE

You can never have too many pairs of sunglasses (especially if, like mine, yours regularly get broken by small people). Enter Powder UK’s limited edition Nadia shades. We’re loving the cat eye shape and collapsible sunglasses case that comes with. 

£38 

IN THE BAG

Nothing says sustainable like a straw shopper and Bohemia’s handmade Raffia Tassel Basket is a real goodie. Fun and fabulous (hello, fringing detail), it’s also sustainably produced making it a feel-good purchase too. 

£48

BOWLED OVER

Whether you’re serving up posh snacks or a warm autumnal salad, this distressed mango wood and rattan bowl will make a great addition to the table. Plus, it also makes a fab fruit bowl when you’re not entertaining. 

£44.99

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD

Ok, technically this is a jar (hand-blown, no less) but this heart-adorned style also doubles as a very chic vase. Fill it with dried flowers for an effortlessly elegant centre piece. 

£24.99

SUNDAY BEST

‘Breezy’ is definitely a word we’re all looking for right now (!) when it comes to dresses and New Day Originals’ statement-print styles deliver the cool-factor in more ways than one. The 100% cotton Joy Shirt Dress gets our vote with its bold floral print and crisp white collar.

£80

SERVED IN STYLE

We’re absolutely dotty (sorry, not sorry) for Retreat Home’s pretty platter trays. Crafted from chunky mango wood with enamel-style dots, they’re perfect for serving everything from crusty bread and cold cuts to canapes.
