CHRISTMAS / WINTER STYLE
It’s official, Christmas has well and truly arrived at Georgie Belle’s HQ! The summer holidays seem like a distant memory already however, the juggle was real this year and mum guilt hit hard! We both enjoyed holidays with our families and some lovely days out with friends but trying to also manage the business was challenging, we had a few ‘bring your kids to work’ days!
We had a lovely afternoon out at Formby beach having a location shoot with all the kids by the amazing Jemma O’neill Photography. We had so much fun and Jemma was amazing with the kids, she put us all completely at ease and we got the most natural photos which is just what we wanted. Picking our favourites was incredibly hard.
Since the last edition we have had our second DTG printer installed which has enabled us to be able to print double the amount in the same timeframe and with the amount of Christmas orders flying through each day its been a god send. We have been working on some very exciting projects for just over 12 months now and one of them is about to be launched now that we are completely happy with the results. We have been working with an incredibly talented Illustrator who has captured our visions from briefs perfectly and we have two gorgeous exclusive collections to launch with more already in the making. We have been involved with the entire process from sketches to completed hand painted water colour elements which Holly has now pieced together to create some beautiful unique designs that we hope you love as much as we do! Hopefully by the next edition we will be able to share our other project with you but for now we are busy behind the scenes trying to get this over the line.
Our top picks for your Autumn/Winter wardrobe are on trend animal prints, teddy bear themed clothing and cosy tracksuits! We have also picked out some Halloween / Christmas novelty items for some inspiration along with a few bits for celebrating those magical milestones!

School Holiday Jigsaw: Surviving the Summer Holidays as a Working Parent

The Cognitive Crutch: Are We Outsourcing Our kid’s Brains to AI?
The Cognitive Crutch: Are We Outsourcing Our Children’s Brains to AI?
Generative AI has transitioned from a novel tech trend to a permanent classroom fixture. But as tools like ChatGPT effortlessly handle the heavy cognitive lifting of writing essays and solving equations, educators and neuroscientists are raising an urgent alarm. True learning is rooted in the cognitive friction of arriving at an answer. By outsourcing that struggle to machines, are we causing intellectual stamina to atrophy, leaving behind a generation of brilliant curators who have lost the ability to think independently? From primary schools to university campuses, the data reveals a stark shift from active learning to passive “cognitive offloading.”
