Webby Wednesday: StyleTrek.com

I couldn't wait until Wednesday to post this marvellous online hidden gem. Allow me to introduce you to StyleTrek, the crowdsourced e-commerce boutique showcasing the world’s hottest independent fashion designers and the most in-demand but hard-to-find accessories like Finsk platform wedge (heart!). The site used to serve US clients only. But now it has expanded and is serving online shoppers from over 90 countries.

StyleTrek's current roster of designers are located in over 15 countries across 4 continents including Argentina, Australia, Denmark, Finland, France, Hungary, Indonesia, Italy, Korea, Mexico, New Zealand, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom and United States.

So what's so special about StyleTrek other than shopping from hard-to-fine designers? The site also mentors driven and talented designers to reach new and existing customers online. You as a client can engage with StyleTrek designers and give them feedback at every stage of the design and production process.

StyleTrek's business model allows designers to retain a larger portion of retail sales in order to use proceeds to fund further growth of their businesses.

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in Miu Miu Boutiques throughout our region.

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare. This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
