Today I'm going to be starting a new series in which I will interview small fashion and jewelry companies and asking them a little bit about there business. So to kick of the series I have the lovely Natalie from Tally tiger!
Tally
Tiger is an online fashion jewellery and accessories shop, run by 19-year-old
Natalie Reekie from Edinburgh , Scotland .
A
fun fact: the name Tally Tiger was created by putting Natalie's nickname
(Tally) and her pet rabbit's name (Tiger-lily) together, creating Tally
Tiger!
Why
did you start Tally Tiger?
I
launched Tally Tiger in the spring of 2012 with the aim of doing a job that
involves something I'm enthusiastic about - fashion accessories. I don't think
many people can say they love what they do, but I'm lucky to say I'm one of
them.
Where
do you get inspiration for your jewellery from?
When
choosing the pieces to sell on Tally Tiger, I like to look for pieces that
stand out. Although we also sell small, everyday jewellery, we like to pride ourself
on the fact that our customers can choose a piece of jewellery or an accessory
that will really add something special to their outfits!
What's
your favourite piece of jewellery that you are currently selling?
That's
a really tough question because I choose our pieces myself and I have to say, I
really do love them all! If I absolutely had to chose, my favourite would have
to be our Bullet Necklace. It's simple enough to be worn daily, yet edgy enough
to make a statement!
Does
your collection express your personal style?
Because
I choose the pieces for our shop personally, I think it's a given that a little
bit of my own style creeps into it. However, we do like to pick items that will
cater for all styles, not just my personal preferences. In saying that, I do
own a lot of our pieces myself and wear them daily!
Sum
up your collection in 5 words?
Edgy.
Statement. Different. Girly. Bold.
I love finding new online jewellery shops, I will be keeping an eye out for your next interview :) x
