Solving My Handbag Dilemma

As a PA I can't begin to tell you the amount of STUFF that piles up on my desk (and under it), in the boot of my car and all over my living room at home. From Mr. X's dry cleaning and paperwork to my own text books and gym gear, it's a mission and a half trying to lug it all around in my high heels. My calves are killing me!

I'm feeling very inspired lately (after creating my own logo), and since I'm on the ETERNAL hunt for the perfect handbag, I thought to myself, why not design one yourself? 

I put pen to paper and this is what I came up with...

It's a larger-than-life tote bag in heavy duty, durable and washable black fabric. I think every one should own a black bag to cart around all their stuff - it won't stain! Anyway, the bag will have sturdy, short handles for easy lifting, an iPhone and magazine pocket for convenience, key toggles and much more. I've tentatively named it the Camelia Carlton 'Boot Bag', and it will of course feature my fab logo on the side.

I'm not sure where to go from here, so I'm going to ask my godmother Toni-Maree who is in the laundry and fabric industry about her contacts.

Keep your fingers crossed for me, this could be the start of something HUGE!

Until next time,

Creating My Logo

I found this picture in my web-browsing travels the other day, and OMG I love the colour! It inspired me to think about my own personal mantra in life, and that in turn encouraged me to get a bit creative with my own 'personal logo'. As you know, my name is Camelia, which is also a beautiful flower!

I went with a more 'hot' pink because that's my favourite. Then my thoughts turned to fonts. I need something a bit fancy-schmancy, a little bit 'posh' if you like. This is the font that spoke to me...

I'm still playing around with the design of it all. I could take the giant Camelia flower and write my name underneath in Scriptina font, or I could dot the i in my name with the flower. Decisions, decisions...

Until next time,
