Remember remember...

Been so long since I updated here... I've been so busy. Started a new job to help get some money ready for Christmas (I know its like nearly 2 months away, but you know how Christmas is... ?). This new place I'm working at does Nails (and waxing) soooo... I was thinking maybe one day, when I get the money to actually open up a shop, I could set aside a corner with a couple of tables to do nails as well. Maybe? It'll be like a place where you could do some shopping, do your nails, and maybe get a healthy juice drink or something? - all that minus the high-street prices... what do you think?

Bonfire night (Guy Fawkes) tonight, my dog is shaking like a leaf - he's so scared of all the banging. Don't think we'll be going for a walk tonight... will have to watch the fireworks from the window.

Have fun everyone!

New Listing...



























Listed a few new items today. I hope the selection will appeal to a larger audience. What one person likes might not be so appealing to someone else... Fashion is all about personal taste, right?

Good day...

Had a very productive morning. Got some more new products to look at, got to speak to a wonderful lady from Barclays Business account who was not only very helpful, but also very interested in my new venture. So far, its been a very good day... wouldn't it be just great if everyday ran as smoothly.

My far east supplier sent me some new items today. Titanium bracelets, necklace and rings. They look very nice, though i don't think they're quite feminine enough. Christmas is coming soon and i don't think this is the type if gear that you would wear to a x'mas party... However, I think listing a few on the site isn't going to make much difference.

It's a start

I was working for a large trading (import/export) company not long ago. I decided to leave and start a small online business selling 'stuff'. The 'stuff' I am selling at the moment are handbags, eventually I hope to list more items like jewellery (jewelry), gifts, toys, second hand vintage/ retro...

So far its been quite a learning curve. I haven't had much experience in web design or starting a business from scratch. Although I have had over 5 years experience in sourcing products, doing EVERYTHING by myself has been... a challenge. I think I'm not doing too bad at the moment, but I know there is alot more work to be done.
