Catch Up with Lady Jane Shipley

I'm baaaaack!!!!! 
 
Lady Jane Shipley has been up to quite a bit since you last heard from me. Hmmm, Where do start? I now have  my own website set up to your enjoyment. It has multiple pages for my different interests. One page is the fashion/style page appropriately called "What's Hot". 
 The next is a journal/update blog about the new things I'm doing so you can see them as is do them called "What's Up". 
There is a Gallery tab to check out the bulk of my work in one place. That should make things easier for you.

  I've  also added a "Mod Me" page that is slowly getting going about different things and people in the Body Modification community. So if you're a professional in the industry or know someone who would be interested in being featured, contact me!

I've been making signature tanks as a new item sold through my site. I also have a limited amount of 8g stone plugs (jewelry for stretched piercings) in three different stones. Another place to look for my creations is ulekstore.com. I entered a design contest to design plugs on their website. I won first place!!!! My design was a simple lotus with om symbol on it. Simple and beautiful. ULEK Store also bought one of my other designs for iPhone cases. The design is one of my favorites, a modified Buddha panda. 
 




Purses are one of my new infatuations. I just painted a Wonder Woman one that I immediately fell in love with. There are so many things in the works and I am constantly growing and evolving so don't miss one minute of it.

Independent Fashion Site Review: 9th & Elm

  I recently stumbled upon a gem of an indie designer website, www.9thandelm.com. Here’s a website that brings up-and-coming talented designers center stage, flash sale style a la Gilt or Hautelook.  9^th & Elm’s slogan, displayed across the top of the site, is right on: “Handmade, Independent, or Otherwise Cool”.

   It was started spring of 2013 by serial entrepreneurs, Clay and Elly Bethune, who had a mission to build a selling platform for the best independent designers of the creative and handmade. 
   I love the clean, simple navigation of 9^th & Elm’s website. They ask for you to join (which is free) and then they offer an awesome referral program- for every person who makes a purchase due to your referral, you receive $25 towards shopping the site’s goods.  I know plenty of people who would love to peruse and purchase most of what 9^th & Elm has to offer.

  9^th & Elm’s color palette of grey, white and pink makes the site easy to navigate, and each designer is allotted one page, so you get only the best products from each one.  The sales start with 10 days of allotted buying time, and the time left for the flash site pops up when you hover over a designer’s square.

  The thing I most love about this site is the support & love for original, independent designers. If you do a little research, you’ll discover that a lot of the designers have Etsy shops, and they’ve curated their handmade collections to put the best of it up on 9^th and Elm.

It’s a beautiful meld of indie designer, creativity, and the entrepreneurial spirit!
