February Celebrations

February has quietly creeped up on us again, and that means so has the big V-Day! Before long high street will once more be lined with heart-shaped everything from balloons to baking trays and sweet nothings that are in between. Associating the celebration of passion with warm colours like red, orange, pink, peach etc. is only appropriate as people tend to affiliate these colours as symbols of affection. Think no further if you're wanting to get a head start with planning the most perfect Valentines gift; Cup of Daisies has a selection of silk scarves for your special someone.

Lady Red

Orange Jungle

Purple Orchid

Apart from the great V-Day coming up, it is also Chinese New Year!! Chinese people believe that the colour 'red' brings good luck and prosperity which is why people traditionally wear the colour red during this festive period. Inspired by the mandarin fruit which is commonly given to each other as a peace offering when visiting friends and family during Chinese New Year, our Orange Jungle scarf is the perfect accessory to complement any outfit.

Talk about a double celebration to get all dressed up for, these scarves with its one-of-a-kind designs will definitely make a unique fashion statement.

British designer, J.W.Anderson has once again created a collection to challenge the audience's take on art within fashion. Photo: Isidore Montag "In plebeian terms, if "pretty ugly" were a thing, Anderson nailed it. Citing English modern painter Graham Sutherland as a reference point, Anderson appropriated the queasy colour palette of alien green, murky mustards, watery browns, moss and greys from Sutherland's paintings onto his collection. Anderson went further by employing "ugly" fabrics like corduroy, black satin and a two-toned seaweed woven mix as a personal challenge this time. Admittedly, some of these fabrics are among his most abhorred." It is the very juxtaposition ...
