The Motorcycle Arrives


In honour of Javelin's new Barbour Steve McQueen Campaign, the guys at TripleMoto have lent us a Triumph Bonneville T100 (which to those of you who are not in the know is a massive shiny motorcycle!) Polished to perfection, it arrived this morning and is now the star of our window display. Well ... one of the stars, Steve McQueen is there too. The bike had to have a little cool down outside the front of the shop first and then it was installed by our creative stylist with the help of Henry and the Triple Moto guys. I would have helped but I was taking pictures, and I didn't really want to.
Above is a picture of many concentrating faces negotiating the bike into the window whilst inquisitive Ben watches from the sideline. He's probably thinking of a question to ask.
So come see the finished windows, which will be in for the next few weeks.

So which are you this Season?


With our Autumn Winter Stock hitting the Javelin stores right now, we just have one decision for you to make: Are you going to be Gothic or Girly? Sheers amd Lace are big news for the season but it is up to you how you want to wear them. The Vero Moda Kristi dress comes in cream or in black so it could go either way. On the catwalks Gucci and Chanel were all dark and mysterious - like the Little Mistress sheer dress. On the other hand, Jil Sander and Balmain were all soft and cute - like the Sonja top and Lovett jewellery. It's the ultimate fashion contrast, some catwalks were girly, some catwalks were gothic, but you cannot be both, so which is it going to be?
