Lark: taking childhood back to the 50s

My own mother was a child of the Fifties, so perhaps the vintage goodies on offer at Lark are resonating with me for that reason. On the other hand, I don't think I'm alone in seeing the appeal of clothes and toys from a simpler time.

Nor do you have to be big into retro to dress your child in beautiful items like the crafting smock pictured above, or the Fifties skirt (currently out of stock - phew, says my bank manager). Forget the era; they are just plain gorgeous.
