UPON REFLECTION // NEW NECKLACES!



Hey guys,

I had taken a break from blogging for a few weeks, as I was frustrated that I was stuck in a creative rut and everyday stresses had gotten on top of me, so I needed some time away from work, the business and the blog just to calm myself and rethink how I address things in my life. And I never thought I would be blogging again, but I don't think I could express myself fully on any other platform :).

So, in case you have missed some of the updates on Facebook, I had mentioned that I was going through a rebrand of the shop, as I felt that everything there wasn't as coherent anymore, and I was just stocking up for the sake of having a certain number of things in the shop, so it was taking the joy out of making things I loved. So I had reflected on the things I used to make when I first launched my designs, which were hippie chic and afrocentric with an edge, which is what I'd like to go back to, because it was my happiest time and I knew more of myself and my niche.

 


 

 



A lot of aspects of this will be making a comeback, especially with the jewellery and accessory aspects of it. This will be my 5th year in business and I intend to make it the best year so far :).




I have made a couple of new pieces, which are available now, in the shop!

I love statement piece necklaces, they really make an outfit THAT much better than it already is.  I imagine this being worn with cute dresses in particular, or even a nicely tailored shirt and jeans, but I think this would be good with any casual outfits too.

Have a wonderful day guys! x
