We're almost 1 year old.....

Busy Busy Busy

I hope everyone had a lovely Valentine's Day and were spoiled, either by a special someone or you just treated yourself :-)

It's been a bit hectic in the last couple of weeks at Diva HQ.  I'm trying to improve my social media presence and trying to revamp the website, in time for our first anniversary on the 23rd Feb.  

I can't believe Diva has been trading for a year, it's been a quick one, with lots of up's and down's.  

One of the hardest things is finding the time to invest in the business.  For any new readers who don't know me, I work full time in quite a pressured environment, I have twin 13 year old boys (don't need to say anymore) and i'm trying to get this fab wee company off the ground, so it has it's challenges, but I always believe it will be worth it.  

So to maintain focus, i've set myself a 2 year challenge to build Diva Fabulous into my full time occupation.  There is no doubt that when I do invest the time needed into the business, it flourishes.  So I just need to find that happy medium in the meantime to make it grow and get to where it should be.

So onward and upward, next week I will be doing some fantastic offers that will celebrate our birthday and hopefully bring some new Diva's along for the ride with lots of new items like this beautiful SassB Ostrich Feather Shrug, this will be unveiled shortly.....xoxo

Time for a change me thinks!!!

Time for a Change!!

This update is long overdue, so rather than go over old ground, I thought it would be easier to start again....with lots of things. 

So, Diva Fabulous is going to get a bit of a makeover in the next couple of weeks, and i'm excited.  We're going the whole hog, new website and new logo too.  I've been taking a good look at lots of other websites, not just bridal sites, but clothing, holiday and jewellery sites, and what i've noticed is that i'm drawn to the simpler, cleaner looking sites.  The type that looks classy and uncluttered, which makes sense as this is what I am like in my working life (although not so much at home, lol).  So that is what the new Diva site will embrace.

I've also decided to branch out to more everyday jewellery and accessories and not just be known for bridal, although we will still remain in the wedding circuit also.  

It's critical in a thriving business to know when to change, and we're approaching our 1st birthday next month, so this is the time to 'tweak'.

In our second year, I want to focus on growing via social media, twitter, Facebook, pinterest, and instagram.  We have accounts on all, so it will be about getting our Diva's excited and on board with our new products.  This will be a challenge and I hope I can meet the demands that are necessary to make a respectable online social presence. 

Anyway, I thought I would start a new section in my blog showing what my lovely Diva's have been ordering this month and they have been delighted with each piece when they arrived, so here's a few of the pieces ordered in January so far.

Ganza Comb by LHG Designs - £95

Millie Brow Band by Ellie K - £75

Hazel Wedding Set by Girls Love Pearls - £65

These are all available on www.divafabulous.co.uk with free p&p.  So the blog will be updated weekly from now on, so I will be keeping my eyes peeled for inspiration for stories throughout the week, but it anyone has any ideas or items they would like to see more info about, feel free to email me on lisa@divafabulous.co.uk.  

Take care and see you all next week
