As many of you know Queene and Belle is one of my favourite brands (one of…there are many!) and I was delighted to see Angela Bell in the Telegraph over the weekend. In the article she talks about her inspiration but also gives us a little insight into her lifestyle and products she can’t live without. If you haven’t heard of Q&B it really is a brand with a difference: Queene and Belle is the epitome of understated luxury. It is a highly individual collection of specially designed pieces which have been created to enhance both visually and sensually. Their Collection has grown and matured into a 21st Century brand which is loved for its unrivalled attention to detail, luxurious yarns, contemporary shapes and eclectic cool styling. The cashmere knitwear is produced by artisan craftsmen in the world famous town of Hawick – the historical home of cashmere in the Scottish Borders. The specialist knitting techniques originating in the area such as ‘hand intarsia’ are embraced by Queene and Belle with some of the graphic images used on the designs taking up to 12 hours to knit a single piece. Angela invites us into her life – explaining her exercise routine “I help my farmer husband round up the sheep, bringing them in. It involves lots of running about and waving of arms!” or meditating at the top of the hill at her farm in the Scottish Borders; hair care routine “I go religiously to the hairdresser once or twice a week for a blow-dry as the water on my farm has a high copper content, which plays havoc with my hair.” and styling tips “I always need white in an outfit. I love the lift it gives. A favourite look might be boyfriend jeans, a Queene & Belle cashmere sweatshirt or a man’s vintage dinner shirt and a white vest.” . janedavidson.co.uk/angela-bell-complete-woman/
