Last Thursday saw the grand opening of Ted’s splendid new Bicester Village store and, in true Ted style, it was quite the occasion.

Dedicated to the pursuit of the Great British outdoors, the new store’s distinctive interior puts the spotlight on golf, picnics and a spot of good old-fashioned gardening.

Guests were treated to the sight of upside-down flowerpots posing as lampshades, vertical picnic scenes on actual turf adorning the walls and intrepid ducklings waddling across the ceilings. Even a small army of gnomes were in residence, busying themselves among the vintage croquet mallets and birdhouses.

Golfing was the activity du jour, with a miniature crazy golf course, manned by Ted’s dashing caddies, set up to give guests with an eagle-eye their chance to score a hole-in-one in exchange for mystery lucky dip prizes. Even the cash registers housed a most convincing golf pond, complete with exotic fish, ducks and even the odd missing golf ball.

Perhaps most impressive of all were the store’s marvellous changing rooms. Decked out in golfing tartan upholstery, each booth revealed, amidst rustic brickwork and overgrown moss, a unique glimpse of a classic English country garden. Complete with hidden gnomes and inquisitive mallards, the overall effect was both stunning and typically eccentric.

Over the course of the opening weekend, friends of Ted indulged in some of his favourite Bakewell Tarts baked by the lovely people at Mary’s Tea Parties and a refreshing G&T, served by the boys from The Travelling Gin Company straight from their bikes!

Today, Ted will also be calling up one lucky winner who has bagged themselves a pair of tickets to visit historic Waddesdon Manner.

All in all, Ted’s new Bicester Store is, quite simply, a putt above the rest.

Our new Bicester Village store opened its doors today, just a few doors down from our old store.

 To mark this most exciting occasion, Ted will be throwing a splendid celebratory weekend until 25 September. With exciting giveaways, gifts and in-store activities, it’ll be simply too good to miss.

Ted’s friends, Mary’s Tea Parties, will be whipping up some of Ted’s favourite Bakewell tarts and The Travelling Gin Company  will be pouring refreshing beverages served in vintage teacups.

Teeing off with our golf & country garden vibe, try your hand at Ted’s hole-in-one putting competition on our bespoke crazy golf course.

If you’re a putt above the rest, you could win a prize from Ted’s lucky dip trunk.

You can also enter our prize draw competition to win a pair of tickets to visit extraordinary local attraction, Waddeson Manor. With complimentary cream teas as well as a £250 shopping spree at Ted’s new Bicester store to be won, it’s well worth taking to the green this weekend.

Looking for a flirty, fun alternative to jeans for a blustery day’s shopping or sightseeing? Then look no further than Ted’s dress AMLI. With its romantic sleeves, flattering skinny belt and cute pleated design, it goes with just about everything and ticks every box when it comes to daywear.

Sporting Ted’s hugely popular Blossom print, AMLI is an essential transitional piece – a cute little number that will keep you stylish all winter by pairing it with tights and our ATRION leather jacket. AMLI will even see you coast easily into spring by stripping it back to bare legs and teaming it with Ted’s light cardigan, PAMILA. Pleats are set to be a huge feature of the Spring catwalk as is the floral trend so snap up this piece and kill two trends with one buy.

Be wrapped up and ready for the approaching cold snap. If you only choose one piece to update your winter wardrobe this season, make it the cosy and fantastically versatile CORAM cable knit jumper.

Originating from the Aran Islands, cable knit jumpers were initially knitted by fisherman’s wives using unscoured wool which made the garments water-resistant and still wearable even when wet. Ted’s CORAM jumper is made with much softer marled yarns but preserves the original cable knit pattern which, legend has it, symbolises a fishwife’s wish for her husband’s safe and successful return from sea.

For those of you not heading out on the boat this season, team this adaptable knit with denim or coloured chinos; alternatively, layer up with a quilted jacket and chunky scarf for an easy and snug winter style that’ll bring your wardrobe bang up to date.
