The sorry saga of Sophie & Lili in the UK
This knitted tunic at Groovy Mummy caught my eye for a number of reasons: I love blue and green together, and I love bold circles. Doing a bit of research, I see that it's by Sophie & Lili, and drift over to that site.
At which point, I wish I had never seen the thing. See, while Sophie & Lili might be well-known to all you design-loving Americans, they're new to me. And their Orla-Kiely-esque autumn collection nearly made me fall off my chair, it's so gorgeous. Those pink splodgy flowers...heaven!
But, according to their website, Sophie & Lili have one outlet in the UK, and that's Groovy Mummy, where I started this whole sorry saga. They only seem to carry a couple of pieces, so I'm busy convincing myself that sometimes it's very good for me - and my purse - to look and not to buy.

Not to tempt you further - but it looks like this sweater is on clearance directly from their site. They don't seem to prohibit international ordering and with the exchange rate these days it would be criminal of you not to buy it....

Oh, man. I love your judicious use of the word 'criminal'. Thanks so much for the tip!

Actually we do stock alot more of the sophie and lili items but they are not always on our site - give us a buzz on 02086501286 and we can let you know what we have! It sells so well that alot of items do not make it onto the site.
