2010-04-26T00:00:00.004+01:00

i thought it be nice to design a website that showcase me and my sister jewellery, we always wanted to have a little vintage jewellery shop.
we started to made jewelleries as we were so fed up with the same old stuff you get from the shops..

Our goal is to have a place that sells beautiful jewelleries that you can't buy anywhere esle..

this is me and my sister's project: Dress up - Selling handmade - vintage inspired jewellery.

mock up designs of my homepage...

beautiful mulberry...

2010-04-20T15:44:00.005+01:00

mulberry.com emailed me yesterday saying the blue ink alexa bag are no longer being made and apologies for my inconvenience. why oh why..

the beautiful mulberry bag was first spotted at London Fashion week, soon as it hit the shops, it was sold out. 

I was so disappointed, after months of phoning and begging mulberry and their constant replied "its coming soon", it was looking dismay.. I was told the waiting list for the alexa would be until sept, i cant wait that long?

couple of days later..my very best sister, have done the impossible. she befriended the mulberry head buyer and got one for me! I can now say I am a proud owner of a alexa!

what do client say

2010-01-21T13:26:00.002Z

We all have funny and horrid client stories, I have a particular unpleasant one, there was a client (i'm be nice and will not name) had asked me to designed a website (which I've spent a long time doing) and was ready to go live, all I need was them to sign it off. But the client decided to pull out at the last min due to lack of funding. (These things happen)

But couple of weeks later, when I decided to look at the client website, Shock, horror! They have put a new website up and it look rather similar to my website design! Sigh...

"A collection of anonymously contributed client horror stories from designers." have more funny and horrid stories to tell.

i know christmas have just gone, but i really want it...maybe just the one?

mulberry have created some fantastic bags for decades, i really never appreciate their craftsmanship and their intricate details and effort that have put into their work...but this bag came and conquered, this is sooo beautiful!

the bag is named after the british model alexa chung, the story goes..when the mulberry creative director emma hill spotted her with a vintage men mulberry bag, she inspired her to make a ladies version and named it 'alexa'

the bag is available to buy now at mulberry from £695...is a little bit expensive but i dont care! x
