every day work

Sorry we haven't blogged much the past couple days, but we have been finalizing our fall '12 collection and it is by far our favorite yet!! We actually are obsessed and can't wait to get our samples soon:) It is 1920's art deco inspired with some really funky, bold pieces. We are hoping to have samples of our entire collection and half of the collection manufactured and for sale at our Bloomingdale's and Bendel trunk shows in June!

If you haven't seen our posts on facebook, we need your help. We entered a jewelry challenge and the design that wins will be manufactured by Crowd Jewel and has the chance to go in front of retailers. We need 50 votes to be in the running to win and have 30 so far....take a second and help us out! Only 20 more votes:) http://apps.facebook.com/offerpop/Contest.psp?c=104322&u=19319&a=254553244581393&p=301907439861926&v=Entry&id=322522&rest=1

Friday I have a meeting with a bank to talk about small business loans. If you have ever run a business or are thinking about starting one then there is one thing that is most important...MONEY! The saying 'you need money to make money' couldn't be more true. Right now with the economy the way it is this has been our biggest challenge. Fortunately, we have done it all to this point without a loan, but to take stella valle to the next level we need some working capitol or it will just take a little more time and a lot more patience...either way we will get there. I'll keep you updated (even though those types of posts aren't the most interesting, but essential to entrepreneurship!).
