The Norah Store is one of Stockport’s staple clothing boutiques – but its latest launch is perhaps the most ambitious project yet.
At the start of March, ‘Norah Home‘ was launched by Elizabeth – the brains behind The Norah Store’s eclectic and artistic creations.
Selling everything from candles and cosy throws to adorable prints and greetings cards, Norah Home consists of creative products that fit the vibrant, high-energy designs of the wider brand.
Their ‘minimal-kitsch’ designs are tailored towards Elizabeth’s personal tastes.
“I love all the floral prints and bright colours,” explains the founder.

“But also that mid-century feel where things are very stylish and minimal, but punctuated with this fun and colour”.
Elizabeth has collaborated with numerous independent makers from across the country to build the collection – carefully curating items to fit out fun, functional, and fearless interiors.

This is officially the biggest launch since The Norah Store began – and the amount of detail and care that has gone into the project is there for all to see.
I don’t know about you but I’m absolutely sick of staring at the same four walls, so the Norah Home collection is a much-welcomed way to add colour to my surroundings and liven up previously tired interiors.
“The whole collection has been very spring focused,” Elizabeth explains.

“I wanted to bring some lightness, colour and fun into people’s homes and lives.”
While Norah Home has been met with overwhelming praise, The Norah Store is still devoted to its roots as an eco-conscious fashion brand.
The company handpicks and revives vintage treasures to cherish in your wardrobe for years to come – selecting pieces from various upcoming clothing brands to give you a sustainable selection of newly-made clothes, too.
“Expanding from clothing into homeware felt really natural to me,” Elizabeth adds.
“The homeware that I’ve picked really fits in with the clothing brands that I stock.”

The entire selection of creative homewares and clothes are available on The Norah Store’s website.

Manchester dentist loved by celebs is knocking £1000 off popular Invisalign treatment
Daisy Jackson
A luxury dentist in Manchester is offering Invisalign treatment with a massive saving this month.
Ruh Dental, which counts the likes of Molly-Mae Hague and Helen Flanagan as patients, will be offering packages with more than £1000-worth of savings.
The special offer is part of the boutique dental practice’s Invisalign Open Week, with discounts on the hugely popular clear brace system which straightens teeth discreetly.
Most cases are able to be completed within six months, with noticeable differences in just three months.
Invisalign can close gaps, and fix overbites and misaligned teeth with less clinic visits than traditional ‘train track’ braces.

Anyone who books in for a consultation and takes up treatment during Invisalign Open Week will save over £1000, thanks to a free consultation (worth £75), free 3D digital scan and simulation of your teeth (worth £300), £400 off aligners, free Vivera Retainers worth £500, and free teeth whitening worth £175.
The open week will run between 29 March and 5 April, with the offer valid for five days after the consultation.
Ruh Dental is based in the heart of Spinningfields and is trusted by the likes of Jill Scott, Helen Flanagan and Olivia Attwood.
The private practice has no waiting lists, with patients seen ASAP, and focuses on restorative and cosmetic procedures.
Its dental team is led by the award-winning Dr Billal Arshad, an expert in his field who trains colleagues nationally and internationally and is famed for his attention to detail and artistic flair.
Another Ruh Dental deal currently running is a Mother’s Day offer, where you can claim a free afternoon tea at The Ivy and a free hygiene appointment when you refer your mum for an appointment with Dr Arshad.
Trafford Centre’s new interactive ‘Wonderwall’ experience helps you style your home
Danny Jones
The Trafford Centre has come up with a novel way to design your home with their exciting new ‘Wonderwall’ experience.
On until Sunday, 26 February, the fully interactive Wonderwall is a fun new touchscreen approach to styling your home and selecting fine new furnishings, featuring furniture and homeware items from various Trafford Centre retailers.
Doing up your gaff can be a fun but often stressful and challenging task, with the sheer amount of choice sometimes feeling overwhelming and the notion of making appointments with a stylist or a full day of shopping around is simply too much faff when you’re trying to get on with everyday life.
That’s where the Wonderwall comes in: not only do you get to create your own mood board on the fly with countless top-quality items from the likes of John Lewis, H&M, Selfridges, Next and more, but you also get on-the-go styling advice as you build out the look for each of your rooms.

Moreover, you never have to risk that dreaded scenario of your order turning up and being nothing like you expected or it was advertised online, as the best part is you can literally go and look, feel and test every piece you pick from the shops within the Trafford Centre.
Better still, if you sign-up to become a Pulse member — TC’s dedicated loyalty which provides you early and exclusive news, perks and events from all of their retailers — you can win yourself a limited-time only gift card to put towards styling your home.
All you have to do is sign-up by joining the WiFi when you’re there. Happy days.
Last but not least, with less than a week left of half-term, not only is the Trafford Centre the perfect place to take the kids but the Wonderwall can also help keep them occupied as well as get them involved in the redesign.
Thanks to their ‘design your dream bedroom‘ colouring competition, you and your little ones can also be in with a chance of winning a £100 Trafford Centre gift card. Full T&Cs apply.
The Wonderwall is located at Orient Way from Monday, 20 February until Sunday, 26 February.
Get yourself down there before the end of the week and be sure to get a photo there with the hashtag #tchome.
