Deadly Ponies is a fantastic accessories label which has been known to me for a few years now. But today, when their new season collection dropped into my inbox, I came to the realisation that I had been holding out on you and it is high time I shared this marvellous secret...
Designed by New Zealanders Liam Bowden and Katie Smith, the duo handcraft all their wares from the very finest leather, meaning every piece is unique and has it's own little personality.
The new season (Winter 2009) 'Pestle & Mortar' is a beautiful combination of earthy tones broken up by a bolt of blue and a pop of pumpkin orange, while the ingenuity of the designs - the interesting-beyond-belief textures and often, the ability to wear the designs a multitude of ways - means you will be endlessly fascinated by making any of these a wardrobe playmate.
It is filtering into stores Down Under now, but our advice is to keep an eye on General Cucumber and they should be replenishing their stock soon.
