Festive Inspiration From A Literary Goddess - Ridley London Less than two weeks to go!!! But don’t panic, My wonderful friend, literary guru and founder of the marvellous Mainstreet Trading Company Ros is here with inspired advice forgreat gifts and getting through the calamity of Christmas Literary guru and owner of The Mainstreet Trading Company Ros de la Hey pictured in a Ridley London luxury Silk Maxi Dress Carnival Milly shirt dress Once again Christmas is almost upon us. And if you’re anything like me, you’ll be on the hunt for great last minute gifts, sensational stocking fillers and inspiration and courage to see you through the frenetic festive fortnight. Don’t fret, expert help is on hand in the shape of one of my oldest, dearest and most brilliant friends Ros. And I don’t use the term brilliant lightly. Having started her career in publishing Ros quickly rose to become Children’s Marketing Director at Bloomsbury and was responsible for launching and growing the incredible JK Rowling and the Harry Potter series. In 2008 Ros left Bloomsbury for the Scottish Borders and established her amazing culinary and literary emporium The Mainstreet Trading Company with her husband and foodie Bill. Over the years the Shop Maxi Dresses London has won numerous prestigious awards including Independent Bookshop of the Year (British Book Awards), Deli of the Year (Farmshop & Deli Awards), Best Bookshop (Telegraph Best Small Shops) and this year was named Britain’s Best Small Shop. As an expert retailer, what do you think makes a great Christmas gift? I always love presents that combine things – so, perhaps part of the present is a bag or pretty box which contains a myriad of goodies themed to work together. But it can be as simple as a paperback book ribboned together with a beautiful bar of Rococo chocolate. What’s the best Christmas present someone's ever given you? Now that’s really tricky! The one that springs to mind most recently is the gorgeous Lumio fabric book light my husband gave me last year. I’d spotted them in The Conran Shop months earlier and he cleverly took note.
