Well,  Sadly Christmas eve marks the last day of Dirty Pretty things at our flagship 5ways boutique……..( cue tears!)

But only for a brief moment as the Year of the Tiger is looking
magnificent for Dpt!

Although Lola (our resident mannequin),Jarvis( our fierce guard dog) and I
are sad to be leaving our beloved 5Ways for
a short reprise,2010 see’s many a new and exciting adventure for Dpt ,with us going online in the new year, and Pop up store in the works just in time for Valentines. !

So after a oh so short break, we are looking to re-open with much pomp and ceremony in the spring…………….
So watch this space!

Wishing you a Dirty Pretty Christmas and we hope the new year brings all your hearts desires & we look forward to hearing what mischief you’ve been up to in 2010.
All our dirty pretty love
