In celebration of my web/blog up and running to full capacity I have treated you with a photo of the day of my little design assistant who pretty much has this to say to me everyday when I need her to do something.... aaawwwww my Lil' Shimmey Marie you're a spit fire!
So tune in here everyday for updated blog posts.  Everything from my blogger blog has officially moved over here to the Jacque Pierro web/blog.   As I seattle into my new digs things will be tweaked, pushed, and pulled over here to make everything just right.
Stay tuned in I'll be having sales, specials, and daily updates with the holiday season upon us.

Please excuse the dust, I'm in the process of remodeling my website.


Hello Everyone,
I've decided to update my website into a new format so please be patient as I make the changes, hopefully over the next week or so I will be completely  finished with the new and improved look.

The Pierro Studios Online store  is up and running with no interruptions, so head on over to purchase yourself a little goody or goody for that someone special for the holidays.
UPDATE ON THE BLOG: The blog has officially moved to the HOME page of my new wonderful and sassy new site right here at www.JacquePierro.com.  All posts that were on BlogSpot have been successfully moved to this HOME page of the site, right below this post.  Over at the old BlogSpot blog I will leave a link to come on over here where the fun is! :)
So I'm off to design the new site and have a cup of tea.
Toodles, Happy hump day!
xoxo- Jacque :)

Katwise, she's just amazing!




The other day I came across the most amazing store on Etsy owned and run by the lovely Katwise.. who could be Gwenyth Paltrow's younger sister... who makes the most gorgeous up-cycled sweater coats that I have ever seen.  She has been selling her patchwork clothes when she followed the Grateful dead tour 20 years ago.  Each coat is made from 20 recycled sweaters that she cuts apart, designs into a new sweater or coat then sews them together using a serger machine.  Each sweater is a gorgeous one of a kind piece.  And the most amazing thing is to watch how they sell on herEtsy shop.  She designates a date and time when she's going to sell her items, which you get to preview on HER FACEBOOK the day before.  On the designated selling day and time she will list about 50 coats, sweaters and arm-warmers and you better not blink because they will be gone with in a matter of minutes.  This past Saturday Sept. 10 I got to witness one of these exciting and entertaining events.  As soon as she listed batches of sweaters and arm warmers they were disappearing off the page.   You could just feel the frenzy as everyone was dashing to the check out to pay for their item before they lost  that one of a kind beauty to someone else, it was really exhilarating and fun to watch.  You go Katwise, you're awesome!  Check out Katwise's Etsy store here.   


Love the color the color combinations in all 3 of these sweater jackets.



Black and white beauty is also very fun, it's really hard to just pick one as my favorite, everything is so pretty.



And what fun this last one is, the combo of the blues and hint of turquoise, just exquisite

I purchased Kastwise's tutorial and will have to give it a go and see how I do at making one of her coats.  I'm excited to learn from a master designer!

Happy Monday!

Jacque Pierro designs are heading into boutiques!






So I recently received a lovely request for some of my bags to be sold in a salon boutique and of course I said that I would love to be apart of this.   This was the final selection that is being packed for the their   spa destination.  I might just have to pack myself in with them so I could have a nice spa day.


Here is the lovely Pam Spillman-Edmonson owner of SKIN ESSENTIALS, she's a holistic esthetician, makeup artist, and extensionist.  She has a holistic approach to healthy skin taking in factors such as a healthy diet, outlook on life, stress and environmental awareness.  She's mind kind of gal!  If your in Wichita Kansas stop in and pamper yourself with Pam's treatments and pick-up some of my bags.




I just love Pam's color sense, the brown, lime green, and white.  So contemporary and clean!
Happy Wednesday Everyone!
xoxo,
Jacque :)
