Well, the big news is that we have launched our own website www.queenofthreads.co.uk ! Its very simple at the moment as I really just wanted to create an easy online shopping experience primarily for our Facebook followers. Its proving VERY popular already which is great. The idea is to allow those who can't get into the shop in Newport Pagnell to buy online - we deliver anywhere in the UK for a flat fee of £2.95 or buyers can opt to pick up in store at their convenience. Great for those who work during the week or have busy weekends and naturally for those who aren't local. I'm really pleased with it and hope lots of you make use of it. Its also keeping me very busy - there are around 150 items listed on it currently which is only about 20% of our stock so I'm adding more and more each day!
We also have been working on our ASOS Marketplace Boutique https://marketplace.asos.com/boutique/queen-of-threads . I started this just after we opened the shop and have been using it primarily to sell a few rarer vintage items which might not have the niche buyers here in the shop. I LOVE ASOS Marketplace - its far more fashion-orientated than Ebay and I love the variety of styles and looks. Here's a few of our current pieces
Vintage Biker Leather Jacket - £50
Vintage Cream Duffle Bag - £12
Vintage Pink Suede Skechers Boots - £20
So, we are kept nice and busy with online orders as well as off the peg purchases here in the shop. We are nearly a year and a half old now ( can't believe how quickly time flies ) and its onwards and upwards ! Hope lots of you take a look at the website and ASOS Marketplace - and if you haven't already, please like us on Facebook www.facebook.com/queenofthreads
Speak to you soon
