Small World

Hi, Baukjen here. My brother who lives in Boston, USA just phoned to tell us a story that happened yesterday. He has a baby girl and took her to the playground where he got talking with another woman there. She was pregnant so my brother said "Look at Isabella Oliver" and she said that she had received an order from us that morning. My brother nearly fell over backwards. He then excitedly told her that his baby sister was one of the founders and she said "yes, is her name Bookiyen (or something like it)?". My brother was at a loss for words (not a regular occurrence!) We were of course thrilled to hear! When I told Vanessa the story a moment ago she said that one of her friends in New York was telling a friend of hers (a fashion editor of a top fashion magazines who is pregnant) that she should check out Isabella Oliver after which her friend pulled the top of her dress to the side to reveal the label of the dress she was wearing - ours! It's so great to hear these stories and hear the word is spreading, thank you to everyone who recommends us. Thank you!!!
