So i’ve been working towards getting my online store off the ground, and man… it’s taking a lot longer than i THOUGHT! There’re so many things to do when it comes to the physical and digital side of things, while juggling my life and work at the same time.
I admit that i have been stressed out at intervals when things are not going according to plan or schedule, but i’m trying to remain confident in myself and just think “IT’S OKAY! At least i’m doing this!” There are soooo many things i’m learning, including ASKING questions cos i’m such a newbie in running a business. But overall, i’m generally happy and feel great about my decision to extend my blog’s brand to an e-commerce store. What am i doing to sell? Erm, well, ANYTHING that i want to! Since this is my own thing, i can make my own decisions… heehee.
So far, i’ve sourced for the obvious – fashion items. But in time i want to sell things that aren’t related to fashion… like TOYS! And festival gear! We’ll see. I have so many plans and ideas on how to do things, but i have to be patient and take baby steps… cos i’m also lacking resources i.e. finance and manpower. When the time is right and the office space is properly ready, i’ll blog another shoutout to appeal to amazing people who would like to work with me ๐ Especially people who have experience in finance, operations and admin. If you are interested now, email me! > joyce@kinkybluefairy.com
For now, i have all this stock on my hands and no website to sell it off on yet cos ipay88 takes 2-3 months to approve my application. Who knew -_-‘ And i could only apply for it when the website was almost ready cos i had to submit printscreens of the shipping terms and conditions bla bla bla. Plus, they doubled their fee just this month… mere days before my i submitted my application. It’s okay (i keep telling myself that), it is what it is!
I’m going to sell whatever clothes we’ve shot so far (haven’t even shot the hundreds of accessories yet) from Facebook.
Erm the reason i’m my own model is because i’m on budget right now ok :p

Hi Joyce, How’s the quality of each item?
Er… i personally think it’s very nice cos i picked it out? XD
Hi Joyce, love it! I would definitely buy some soon! And I damn wish to work with you too.. But I’m not familiar with finance, operation and admin thou.. ๐
Hey Joyce,
Im not a salesperson for rakuten.com.my and i dont work for them but i just had a presentation with them last week and its a good deal for e-commerce business. Ur line would be monopolizing the options since rakuten in msia is very taiwan and korean inspired now.
Perhaps ull be interested to use their platform as a start/ side support for ur shop.Thought it may interest you ๐
