MONEY MONDAY: Make the Most of Your Money

April 16, 2012 By Bespoken For Leave a Comment

This is where I have to be honest and confessions of a shopaholic and the girl in the green scarf spring to mind!

I must admit even writing this I am at the end of a massive payment plan for credit cards and loans I took out to start my business. When I began I was a bit naive, I had no money and a family to raise and of course starting a business involves a lot of investment, which I splashed out on lots of advertising at ridiculous prices and I didn’t know what to pay! I got talked into spending a lot of money of nothing!

Bespoken For: 2012 Accessory Trends

February 3, 2012 By Bespoken For Leave a Comment

Things have been a bit busy in the Bespoken For studio lately! We are overflowing with orders and that means the inspiration is flowing too. So what will we be designing for 2012? Well vintage is still on trend! I think this one is here to stay for the year (at least) because as a bride you can really make the look your own, it is so pretty and what’s more it is a great tradition of something old. So our new collection is going to be filled with vintage inspirations and lots of diamante and pearl.
