Pearl Lowe started out as a singer/songwriter in the 90s before turning her hand to textile and fashion design. In 2006 she launched the Pearl Lowe collection, a range of vintage inspired dresses that sold at Liberty of London. In 2009, Pearl started to design for the high street chain, Peacocks and produces four collections a year for the company.

In September of this year, Pearl launched a range of stationery, available exclusively at Notonthehighstreet, featuring vintage-inspired, luxuriously fully-lined greeting cards, engagement and wedding cards. More recently, in a creative collaboration, Pearl has partnered with DP London to create a range of limited edition candles, which are available from dplondon.com, Selfridges and ASOS.

Pearl Lowe lives with her family, husband Danny Goffey (drummer of Britpop band Supergrass) and their three young children in the country. Pearl is also mother of model Daisy Lowe.

PEARL'S FAVOURITE SITES

The French House - I often get emails of new stock from this company and I love everything they send me. Unfortunately, I no longer have anywhere to put anything. I did once buy some beautiful French doors, that now live in our spare room.

Dorothea's Closet Vintage - This is a wonderful vintage clothing store in the US. I have bought a lot of 20s, 30s and 40s dresses from here.

Notonthehighstreet - I love this site, so much so, I'm now selling my stationery here. It's great for personalised gifts and Christmas presents and decorations.

Alexandalexa - This is great for designer kids clothes, great prices too. They have everything from Rachel Riley, Chloe, John Galliano, Stella McCartney. Alfie, Frankie and Betty modelled for them, which they really enjoyed.

Riverford - I buy all my fruit, veg and organic meat from here. You order it on a Wednesday and it arrives on a Friday, really fresh. It also has the best plum jam and truffles I have ever tasted. I love it when the boxes turn up, it's such a treat.

Plumo - I am often look online to buy house things that aren't vintage. This is a good site to find those bits, it has great cushions, bits of furniture and clothes.
