I bought this unique, shabby chic style mug from amazon a few months ago for £5 with free deliery. I actually bought 2, as i had intended to buy one for my friend but it looked so nice i couldn't help but treat myself to one. The main reason i was attracted to it was the simple but unique style, and the fact that it is a cath kidston product, who i'm a huge fan of. The mug was £5 with free delivery which isn't overlly cheap for a mug, but for a cath kidston product it's a complete and utter bargain and the quality is amazing and the mug is much bigger than i was expecting; i half expected it to be a miniature mug as cath kidston products are usually mini or ...  Read the complete review

As part of my dooyoo Christmas stocking of prizes, I received this lovely Cath Kidston mug. Dooyoo must be secretly stalking me as I still haven't got around to buying a nice mug for work, but after careful thought I decided I'd keep this one at home as the ones at work tend to go missing on a regular basis. The mug manages to find that balance between being elegant and having a large capacity. It stores a generous 18oz, which Google informs me is around 530ml - so it holds a lot but doesn't look massive. It's bigger than the standard size mugs I have at home, but it's not so big it's difficult to store, hard to wash or easy to knock. The mug is a ...  Read the complete review

I love collecting mugs and I also love Cath Kidston prints so the newest purchase I have made is her bubble crush mug. Cath Kidston is a British designer who produces a range of accessories, clothing, homewares and outdoor products. She has a very nostalgic, romantic look to her fabrics and designs and although not for everyone she has a look that I love and I really enjoy the choice across her stores and website. I would describe her look as quite homely and pretty and something generally women like more than men. I would describe this mug as a spotty mug rather than having bubbles on it.The nug has a white background and then lots of different coloured ...  Read the complete review

I am an avid tea drinker - we're talking 5+ cups of tea a day without fail. I work a lot so it does obviously depend on how much time I have but often when I am doing my childcare jobs I sneak in a cup of tea or two. As well as drinking a lot of tea I own an awful lot of mugs. I have this weird theory that different shaped mugs suit different tea drinking moods. For example in the morning I like a really tall mug as these insulate the heat better and this wakes me up. In the afternoon I like a really wide mug because this holds more tea and also it cools more quickly so it's relaxing to drink. Sounds mental but I swear by it. I bought this mug from ...  Read the complete review

I love buying mugs and have quite a large collection! I also love the British designer Cath Kidston so when I visited the Cath Kidston shop in Oxford it was no surprise that I came out with two new brightly coloured mugs!
