Behind the Scenes: Fashion Accessories Shoot

(One of the final pics. Definitely nothing professional, however, it serves the purpose needed, and that's good enough for me!!!)

My hats for the day were photographer & marketing specialist. Took up a lot more of the day than I expected. Whew, my eyes were burning from staring at the computer for so long!
Some behind the scenes pics of my set-up for photographing some REHCY accessories.
Nothing too exciting, but hey, it takes the boring to make the fabulous!!

**Accessories & Happy Trees**


Clothing is all well and good, but accessories bring in the largest portion of your revenue. Every would be designer will benefit from knowing this. Think about is, you're browsing through a store you see an amazing dress, you fall in love with it, you check the price tag, your eyes get huge, and you say, "Holy freaking crap, that's to much for my pockets!!" You quickly walk away, and on your way to the exit you see the most adorable bangle bracelet. In a few minutes you're ringing up at the cash register, all excited to wear the cute bangle with your favorite sparkly top. Sound familiar?




That dress was way to much for you to spend, but you walked out of the store happy and satisfied with the "what-a-great-find-at-such-an-amazing-price" face. Yes, many shoppers do this, and the one's that can afford the dress also buy accessories at the same time to go with it. So remember, accessories, accessories, accessories!!!! Hmmm... needs a cheer...






"Accessories, accessories,


They make me so very pleased!


Fill my tummy with happy...trees?"






Not so sure about that... well, you get the picture. By the way, don't ask me what happy-trees are because I have no idea! ha ha






This post was inspired by the fact that I am currently working on accessories for Rehcy and plan to have some posted for sale this week. Hope this post helps someone on the path to design success!!

**After the show, onto The Fuss**



Now that I've taken an almost two week vacation, whew, I feel so rested, and back to work I go...

After the show is said and done, and you think your stress is gone. HA HA HAAAA, yes, I am laughing at myself, because now comes even more work...

Trying to find buyers, as well as, get my line placed in local stores and boutiques.

I had been talking to an amazing local boutique in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida called The Fuss. The manager Caroline is awesome, trendy, and fun. Three things I admire in a girl! lol The boutique has crazy fantastic clothing and accessories, and they will now be selling some REHCY accessories!!! Yay!!!! Thanks so much to the Fuss, Lauren, & Caroline.

Business Cards, Websites, & Finances

Got my new business cards printed, Yay!!! Thanks to my "big sis" Brandi who pulled some strings at Speedee Printing and got them printed speedeely. lol Yes, I know, corny joke. :-P

Finished up some more accessories for the show.

And lastly, finished the websites for both my accessory line and my new clothing line!

Now for the bad, due to serious time constraints, I will not have time to make handbags for the fashion show. :-( So I am planning to launch those in the next collection that will hopefully be releasing in the fall.
Also, money is very tight, & because of that, some of the legal steps that I wanted to complete before the show will have to be completed after the show. Other paying projects have had to be put on hold due to the fashion show, and I have not been able to take on any new clients. So I'd better make some sells after the show, or...

Daily Concern: Finishing everything I want to finish in time for the show.
