We are featuring Beauty licious, who is also featured in our very own Fashion Week!


Do read on to see what all the hype is about!



1) How did Beauty licious come about? What does Beauty licious offer?


Beauty Licious was born in late December 2009. It was an idea from 2 old school friends. Our

fashion apparels. Our objectives are to make all ladies to look the best but at affordable prices. We
are working to do this all under one roof. Our services are flexible too!

Sunflower was recommended to us by Gift Give when we sounded our intention to find a place to
put our items in a shop apart from our beauty services in the neighbourhood shop.

3) Why did you choose Sunflower

After
considering, we decided to choose Sunflower because of their warmness and the first concept shop
in Singapore based of H.U.E.S (Handmade, Unique, Eco-friendly, Socially-conscious). We
collaborate with Sunflower in early August 2010. From that day onward, Sunflower has never
fail in guiding us in selling our items there as we have got no experience in doing so.

4) What do you personally like about Sunflower?

What we like
the most is Sunflower online inventory / sales report tracking, it is so efficient. Final sales report
is prompt too!

5) Any Burning information to give our readers on FB/Blog?

We are planning to hold a mini-event space on the weekend in front of Sunflower. So check that
out soon!

Launch of Fashion Week!


Sunflower has officially launched its very own exclusive Fashion Stage!
Meant to be a warm and cosy haven for Shopaholics, we have partnered with various blogshop owners to bring to you quality, unique and one-of-a-kind apparels and accessories! .

And we are hereby announcing the start of Sunflower's Fashion Stage , ( not to be mistaken with Milan's version, but you can equate it to be of the same hype ! ) by featuring 3 of our Brands involved in the Fashion stage.
The first week we shall kick off with : My Enchanted Eden


My Enchanted Eden is set up by 2 working ladies (Alethea and Clarie), who are ardent fans of shopping, barely 7 months ago.

However being part of the busy working class, they find that it is difficult for their peers and themselves to find time to shop in malls, and the selection for working gear online are not great.


Thus My Enchanted Eden was born , in which they feature exclusively designed and manufactured shoes and apparels, all of which are hand-picked!


Prices are intentionally kept low , but Quality of their items are never compromised! ( Good news for all the ladies out there! )


Here are some of the sneak peeks on the items that they will be EXCLUSIVELY featuring through Sunflower during their Fashion week from 7/10/2010- 13/10/2010

We call this the Power dress! Comes in slate grey, Fuschia and Ivory.

Channel your inner femme fatale for that high level presentation through this nifty and interesting dress ! It will enhance your figure as well through the well placed dash of color.
While stocks lasts!

In Slate Grey

In Ivory

In Fuschia

Black Rosette Work dress

Who said black is boring had not seen this dress!

With an interesting V neck line and artsy rose prints, this is perfect for the office, yet still far from dull.

The neutral colors make it easy to match with accessories as well! Pile some on for that after-work event!
Audrey Hepburn inspired shift dress in Monotone

Comes with a free black sash to accentuate your figure!
Classic and elegant, this updated and chic number will never go wrong!

Interviews with Sunny Entrepreneurs




Sunflower is Launching a new column : Interviews with Sunny Entrepreneurs

Through this brand new column, we will be featuring some of our Partners on their thoughts on handmade things, their experiences in running their own business, and also on Sunflower.

Thus, all aspriring entrepreneurs , please sit up! Watch out for this column, only EXCLUSIVELY featured on this blog! Follow us on our facebook for more updates or follow our blog to know more!

Today we will be kickstarting the column with one of our newest partner:

My Enchanted Eden!



1. Describe your fashion blogshop concept! (how are u different from the rest?)

We understand how busy young working ladies like us, could be too busy to go shopping with the tight busy work schedule & various other commitments.

We hope that our blogshop can reach out to the busy working ladies, so they can shop online at their own leisure time.

All material and designs for clothing & shoes are hand-picked by us & pricing is kept affordable. So we can now get to try on various chic work-wear designs, without worrying about burning a big hole in our pocket every month before pay day!

Online retail therapy has never been better with such convenience & affordable pricing!

2. How did you get started out on this business? (eg. What prompted you to take it from hobby to business?)

My Enchanted Eden was started by Alethea and Claire, who love shopping online for its reasonable pricing & convenience.

As we are both working ladies and find that there aren’t many choices for working apparels and shoes online.

Alethea happened to be travelling and came across a shoe factory and started working with the factory to select & manufacture shoes suitable for work.

Shortly after, Alethea invited her friend Claire, to work hand-in-hand, to bring in quality work & casual clothes.

It has been only 7 months since My Enchanted Eden has made its debut, but slowly & steadily we hope for success in the years ahead, with everyone’s support.

3. What do you think is different about Sunflower as compared to other similar concept stores?

Sunflower has a bright and sunny ambience, which captured our attention. They feature many different talents who bring in all sorts of handicraft and accessories. It is always interesting to visit Sunflower each time to check out the extensive range of merchandise there.

4. How is your experience with us so far? / What do you personally like best about Sunflower?

Sunflower gives us the freedom in doing up our own showcase of our apparels. The staff are always ready and share with us their views on improving our showcase.

5. How do you think that Sunflower has elevated your business? (pls provide suggestions to improve the Fashion Stage)

We are able to displayy some of our favourite apparels in a physical shop, which allows our customers to have a real “feel” & also try them on.. It has also brought in new customers, who came to know about us after visiting Sunflower.

6. Why did you choose Sunflower?

We discovered Sunflower by chance via a close friend’s Facebook page.

Subsequent discussions took place with Boon Cheong, the owner of Sunflower, and we discovered that Sunflower is also interested in bringing in some work apparels for the ladies working in the vicinity.

The rest, as they say, is history. And now My Enchanted Eden is a happy tenant of Sunflower.

7. Any burning information to give to our readers on FB/Blog?

My Enchanted Eden works very closely with our shoe manufacturers and apparel suppliers to make sure that we bring in only quality, trendy, boutique standard items that are reasonably priced.

We understand the need of dressing well for both the office environment and dressing chic on casual days. Never fret about what to wear for work or play again, with our range of designs. Neither do you have to worry about high prices.

Our biggest sense of achievement is seeing our satisfied customers strutting confidently in our apparels & shoes! J

We welcome all feedback & comments, so we can improve ourselves all the time, to serve our customers better. So please feel free to drop us an email. We don’t bite :P

-------------------------------

and there you have it, My Enchanted Eden, up close and personal!
If you're interested in their items, or know more about them, do come down to Sunflower which is located at City Sqaure Mall, B1-12A,

or go to their websites in which they have regular collections to browse through!
