Christmas gifts guide: picks for MEN
Our statistics are clear - the biggest gift buyers are women. Most of the times they buy for their men: partners, brothers, fathers.

Deciding on new styles/colours/prints It might be easy for a big company with a huge budget to do a research, but it is a bit different when you're small. I think I've already mentioned in my previous blogs that...
How do you come up with new designs?
It's the question we often get. I remember there were times when I was laughing when someone suggested I should introduce new design every week. It seemed mission impossible. In time, however, I have trained myself to create regularly. I do not need to wait for inspiration or that special moment when I feel urge to create. I have learned to push myself a little bit. 1.
