This is the rough blurb for the website intro...

Summer 2009 Collection

Fresh from the dazzling sun kissed white sand beaches and palm fringed breezy boulevards of Brazil's fabulous Rio de Janeiro, we bring you the latest and greatest Summer fashions for 2009 !!

Working with a select number of Rio's finest small designer fashion labels, Rio Chicoffers you the chance to buy straight into the style and glamour of the most beautiful, vibrant and exciting city in the world!

On or off the beach, day or night, we have something special for you for every occasion, each design produced by hand and in very small quantities, all available in the UK exclusively from Rio Chic.

Treat yourself from a selection of our top items here online, or for the full collection, visit our mobile shop at one of the locations listed below.

Email or text us to receive regular updates on where to find us and what's new ... we are adding new lines all the time.

The Rio Chic Summer 2009 Collection will be available at selected indoor and outdoor markets along the UK South West coast throughout the coming 2009 Spring and Summer seasons.

Watch out for us at Weston, Clevedon, Portishead, Ilfracombe and Minehead. Also inland at Bath, Bristol and Wells markets.

Rio Chic use only Brazilian produced materials, and all pieces are fairly traded.

Rio Chic garments should always be handwashed at or below 30 degrees Celsius.

Roberta the lovely shop assistant was wearing these clothes when I was there buying, so they happened to be the first clothes out of the bag and onto the mannequin when I got home...so the mannequin got her name.

Big fat 4 button waist banded jeans, and stunning top with hand applied sequins and gert medieval pointy side danglers (is that the technical term??)...my fave piece....ummmm!
