A Saturday in the supermarket can be pretty stressful. Well how about some Shakespeare while you shop?
Teatro Vivo are a creative collective that are taking theatre out of the theatre, and bringing some unique interpretations of the classics to the masses – in our local supermarkets no less.
Inspired by Sonnet 23, they’re hoping to bring us a bit of the bard while we’re buying our basics. Check their website or facebook for where and when, then just show up to one of the South London supermarkets and see the action in the aisles.
Add a bit of sparkle to your evening wardrobe with our short and sexy mini skirt Tinzel.

Last week, our ecommerce intern Sean, represented Ted Baker at an Affiliate event with a new partner of ours, LinkShare. Here you can see him manning our stand and chatting away to anyone and everyone about Ted Baker. He definitely looked the part, managing to be dressed ted-to-toe in our latest menswear.
Sean has been with us in ecommerce for 9 months where aside from winning every Tedquarters competition going, from go-karting god to cocktail making champ, he has been working hard on managing our affiliate program.
Sean says, ‘As an intern I have had some great experience and exposure to online retail, I have been given excellent opportunities to go to events and conferences, as well as being strongly involved in internal projects’.

Tucked away in a small street in the heart of London’s East End, there’s an oasis of foliage and flowers. Every Sunday from 8am till about 3pm, you’ll discover the Columbia Road flower market.
The air is rich with the scent of flowers, the banter from traders and the wonder of punters who stroll around the stalls and nip in and out of the antique shops, tea rooms and art galleries. All of whom believe this to be their own secret little haven.
Okay so it’s not so secret these days, and this Sunday will be just as busy as last weekend and the weekends to come. It is however a lovely bit of London and you don’t have to be a garden centre geek to enjoy it. We’re using plenty of floral prints in our womens dresses, tops and accessories this season too, so you might just spot where we’ve got our inspiration from.

Always endeavouring to keep you up-to-date with the latest happenings at Ted Baker; last week we were first to tell you about Heart Shaped Things.
A folksy double act made up of Vicki from our Bath store, and her mate Emily-Jane. The girls were on hand last week to serenade our customers in a couple of initimate gigs held in our Bath and Bristol stores.
Our shop windows were transformed into their main stage and they certainly caught the attention of a few passers. Plenty of window shoppers were drawn inside, where they were treated to some great live music and delicious cupcakes whilst they shopped our latest collections. Did any of you catch either of the gigs? What did you all think?
