British designer Cath Kidston takes patterns and colors that would be at home in your grandma's kitchen and turns them into surprisingly hip, modern must-haves. At first glance, her vintage-inspired housewares and accessories may not seem like your style, but I challenge you to walk into one of her 11 boutiques—including nine in the U.K., one in New York, and one in L.A.—and leave without buying something for yourself or as a gift. It simply can't be done; the stuff is just too cute. I highly recommend checking out one of her stores if you get the chance, but in the meantime, Kidston has a fabulous web site that ships to the U.S. Here are my picks from the online store.
Pop Flowers Apron, about $34, available here.
Strawberry Blue Napkins (Set of 4), about $28, available here.
Three other great finds, so read more
New Bubbles Cosmetic Bag, about $23, available here.
Spot Melamine Bowl (Set of 4), about $34, available here.
Zig Zag Beanie, about $53, available here.

I LOVE the napkins, bag, and bowls! So fresh and fun! Though it would totally clash with everything in my house
1Love the apron. I would totally wear it, too. Something about aprons make me feel like a really hot mom. Is that weird?
2i like the apron too! i would totally buy that
3oh wait! i really like those bowls!!
4spm--are you wearing anything underneath the apron??!!!
5they make a cute little coin purse, it's great for all the change you have but can't stand bulking up your wallet.
6I like the polka dot stuff. I'm a huge fan of aprons. Not weird at all, SPM.
7ooh! i loaded up on this stuff when i was in London, THAT EXACT MAKEUP BAG (!), an adorable umbrella (with cowboys), the tissues...
8I went to the London store in November and was bowled over--and not only by the bowls. Their have the cutest key chains. Everything is pretty darn cute and I mean that in the best possible way. The zig zag beanie is worth moving to a cold climate for.
9I looove Cath Kidston, I collect a lot of the mugs (I love the cowboy one)and I love anything chintz.
