From the camera roll: LYD 2022 Recap
Thank-you to everyone who cheered us on in 2022! We can't wait to share what we have planned for the new year.
A FEW HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE CAMERA ROLL:
We hosted our first in-person Sample Sale at our new location! It was incredible to welcome you into our Chinatown studio. We will be hosting more events in 2023, stay tuned ;)
IN THE PRESS:
Our Diana Ring was nominated as a finalist in the 2022 Etsy Design Awards. This "pinch-me" moment gave our little business a big boost. It was an honour to have the spotlight on a personal favourite design.
NEW PROJECTS:
After a partnership fell through, I needed an outlet to share the real "behind the scenes" of running an independent brand. And with that, I ordered a mic, and launched the Voted Least Likely Podcast.
This project has been one of the most fulfilling things I have ever done. I've opened up about my own journey from a high school drop out to accidental entrepreneur and I've had the honour to interview some amazing guests (like TikTok superstar Caroline Ross and the incredible Dominique Baker).
IN THE STUDIO:
We designed and launched two new collections that focused on jewel tones and personalization. We continue to stay true to our roots and create pieces that celebrate the wearer.
AROUND THE CITY:
We got back into events! After a 3 year pause, we finally set up shop in person. It felt amazing to be back and reconnect with the community. P.S. we've already got a few dates booked for 2023:)
CELEBRATING WOMEN IN BUSINESS:
2022 was all about community. We teamed up with some incredible entrepreneurs. It is an honour to know each one of these women. (from top left to right: Nicolle Nugent, Taylor Hui, Jessie Wright, Caroline Ross, Lindsay Dent, Dominique Baker)
