We can't believe it's that time of year already either!

But here it is... our brand new range of gorgeous clothing and homeware, ready for you to peruse!

Not everything is in stock just yet — our Nepalese shipment got a little delayed, but it should be with us by October. So, if you see something you like (maybe a beautiful hand-knitted 100% wool jewel-green snake jumper, for example?), make sure you hit that 'Request Stock Notification' button so you don't miss out!

Many of you have contacted us regarding the devastating mountain flooding on the border regions of Nepal last week.

We have now heard back from all the producers we buy from in Nepal and thankfully, they and their families are all safe. However, one of them has reported that his village was destroyed and his house there is now deemed unsafe. The heart breaking footage they have sent to us highlights just how huge the relief effort and recovery will be for Nepal.

We are sending money direct to him as he is about to go back to his village to help his community to start the slow rebuilding process.

Some of you have asked where donations would be best sent in order to help at this critical time. The charity we normally support, The Joy Foundation, has a somewhat slow process for accepting foreign donations and we feel that in this case, acting quickly is important. So, we are in communication with suppliers and fellow BAFTS members over the best ways we can offer help. As a result, we recommend the following charities which have been suggested by fellow BAFTS members as trusted charities who are directing funding to teams working in the area right now. We have also contributed to one of these to help others affected by this tragedy.

There are:

Right4Children - https://shorturl.at/VmYsA

KarmaFlights - https://shorturl.at/FapSh

You can follow these links to donate, or links can also be found through the Linktree in our bio.

Our thoughts and best wishes are with all those who are affected in Nepal.

👀 Did you know that there are two floors in our Fair Trade shop in Canterbury, and that it stocks all sorts of things that you might not have expected? Let Riz give you a tour!

Obviously we have all the incense under the sun... but we also stock so many clothes (mens & womens), and it's not just tie dye! We have floaty dresses made from recycled saris (each one unique!), indian block prints, and bright and bold patterns (like Riz's trousers!). We sell beautiful earrings from all around the world, blankets & throws, handmade ceramics, bead curtains,, fun handmade felt decorations, and our famous £2 lucky dip... to name but a few!

Also, unlike our website and our Brighton shop; the Canterbury shop stocks non-Siesta branded goodies, such as Yogi Tea, silver jewellery, crystals, tarot cards, greeting cards, hair dye, Rebel Romance, Emma's Emporium, Namaste, Just Trade, True Origin foods, Vurchoo, Moomins, and henna!

Kids absolutely love coming in our shop because there are so many colourful and wonderful things to see, and we love having them! Also please do bring your pooch in too, we always have a water bowl outside, and treats behind the counter!

Hope to see you soon!

So our Canterbury shop has got a good old refresh, and so has Ganesh! Do you remember any of the older iterations of the double doors upstairs? >>>>>>

Our Ganesh was printed by the amazing SEC Works, thank you!

We're missing seeing you all at Glastonbury this year! Siesta have been selling at Glastonbury for over 40 years... can you believe that?!

Still, we have a lot to keep ourselves busy with at the moment, with the new Brighton shop and our Canterbury shop. And of course, we supplying our lovely wholesale customers, a lot of whom are working very hard, pitching up at all the other incredible festivals happening this summer.

However, we're looking forward to glasto 2027! See you then! ❤️

So, we got the keys on Sunday, but we've been a bit busy with lots of painting and decorating, so sorry for the radio silence!

We're on track, getting the shop Siesta-fied and ready to tentatively open our doors on Saturday, so come by and say hello! 🪇🎉
