Coming Up Roses Review

If you're a big fan of Cath Kidston like I am, you will know that it's the business' 20th birthday and to celebrate Cath has released the book, Coming Up Roses. Her new book describes all the trials and tribulations of setting up and running the business. I think it's amazing how it grew from very tiny acorns.

When I visited the York store on Tuesday, I saw the book and just had to buy it! I've had my eyes on it for a while. 
The book gives an insight into Cath's early days and how she didn't really have any training for running a business or designing, but it was more of an instinct. She describes the many hurdles she faced from starting in a little shop in Holland Park, London to expanding into an international and famous brand.

The book is full of beautiful photographs featuring the first store and where Cath Kidston found most of her inspiration as well as her wonderful floral patterns and prints. The book is a piece of art itself!

If you are an enterprising individual, a crafty artist or just a fan of the brand, then you'll love this book! I just couldn't put it down and finished it very quickly, but that's because of how interesting and inspiring it was.

Let's hope for another 20 years of modern vintage prints and lovely florals.

You can purchase the book from Cath Kidston's website here or why not search for a store near you?
