Giraffe

It's little miss G's 3rd birthday soon so I've been shopping for her new favourite thing, Giraffes! She was spot on with last years request for Rainbows - later highlighted in the John Lewis style report. Giraffes as an icon have long been popular in cards for little ones but recently it's been lovely to see more on the high street owing to the animalia pattern & natural world trends (as seen in the Tiger Lily range & Leopard, Fish trend boards). Giraffe's also reminded me of the lovely positive Gen-Z yellow colour trend. I've certainly found some great design out there - I'm still on the hunt for wrappings! Favourite finds & ones I bought below.
