Exclusive Roots is one of Oxford’s unique

gems. Being an African fair trade shop you
might expect to find an array of wooden
carvings and masks, but as part of its work
with the charity Tabeisa it is developing
African design and pushing the stereotypes
of fair trade. They hold individual handmade
accessories that would be great worn on
any fashionista plus a whole range of unique
pieces to add an element of style to the
quintessential Oxford home.
This distinctive shop is just opposite Browns
Restaurant and caters for all tastes. So,
great for stocking fillers or that one off
bespoke gift; starting from £3 for quirky
recycled jewellery; £12.50 for handcrafted
baskets; organic skincare from £6.50. They
stock a range of African inspired foods,
these are fab winter warmers and perfect
for foodies wanting to try something tasty
and a little different!

“I do love my iPad and now it has the most
stylish home to live in. I love the bycycle print,
it is very cool and it will make my iPad the
coolest on the block.

On a practical note the heavy duty magnetic
strip for the clasp is great and means it is
incredibly durable. The inner lining is very soft
and cosy and I kind of want to get in and go to
sleep. But this does mean my iPad will be safe.

This little black choker, adds a little pizazz and
Christmas sparkle to any outfit even a plain old
Fe-line t-shirt! Check out Exclusive Roots for a
great selection of gifts to fit any budget.”
