Run by Emma Stevenson for over 17 years, inspired by a love of things she would buy herself, things she couldn’t easily find, including dresses with pockets.

Pockets are important to Emma. As is jewellery you can customise to your own liking. Adopting Chesterfield as her hometown, this Yorkshire lass is a strong voice in the town’s indie community, a definite persona of do it.

With her wonderful self-deprecating humour, watch as working mum-of-two Emma shows us around her favourite things, while discussing the answer to life, the power of not overthinking, and of course, the importance of pockets.
