What's wrong, Charlie Brown?
Summer has been fun – but with September just around the corner, it’s time to make those all important back-to-school preparations. (Or, you know, back-to-work.) And you can kit out your schoolbag with some of the cutest stationery in town, thanks to the newly opened Peanuts x Anya Hindmarch concept store.

The Peanuts x Anya Hindmarch Concept Store: What To Expect
British lifestyle label Anya Hindmarch is no stranger to a quirky concept. Whether it’s giant googly eyes, colour-coordinated labels or oddly flavoured ice cream, where there’s fun, there’s Anya. The same can be said for the brand’s latest concept store; arriving at The Village this August, Anya Hindmarch has tapped into the world of Charles M. Schulz and brought the Peanuts gang to London.
The experience begins outside the shop itself, with a nostalgic photo op for Peanuts fans. ‘Parked’ outside the Anya Hindmarch concept space is the iconic yellow school bus, whose doors open up into the store itself. Inside, visitors will find Charlie Brown’s classroom, complete with blackboard, vintage school desks and pigeonholes – as well as exclusive Peanuts x Anya Hindmarch collectables.
A treasure trove of Peanuts paraphernalia, the stationery capsule collection comes dressed in the show’s signature colour palette – joyful shades of yellow, blue, red and green – with plenty of cameos from Snoopy and Woodstock. The line spans stationery classics like leather pencil cases, pouches, laptop sleeves, rulers and keyrings, as well as organisational items such as card holders and tote bags.
‘September will always feel like the start of a new year to me – the perfect time for new stationery,’ commented designer Anya Hindmarch. ‘This year, I’m delighted to unveil our stationery store and collection featuring the world’s best loved comic strip, Peanuts. So, step inside the classic yellow school bus and immerse yourself in the world of Charlie Brown and his friends…’
How Long Is The Pop-Up On For?
The Peanuts x Anya Hindmarch pop-up opened its doors at The Village on Saturday 24 August, and will be on until Sunday 13 October 2024. The space will be open from Monday to Saturday, 10am to 6pm, and on Sunday from 12pm to 5pm.
