What motivates you to purchase  a particular brand? Does the name of the brand motivate you to spend your money, what about the price point, or does quality give you that extra push to make that purchase? All of those things are important but everyone has that one thing that they like about a particular brand. This evening I had the honor to attend an event celebrating the Llewellyn retail debut at Sheer Delights. First and foremost when I attend any event  I look to see if the atmosphere is inviting because no one wants to attend an event full of stuffy, unfriendly or arrogant people.  Not too long after walked in, I was greeted by one of the models and offered  refreshments and engaged in conversation in regards to some of the pieces that were available and what I was looking for. A friendly face is always a plus when you are attending an event. This was my first time meeting designer Jeffery Hawkins outside of social media and like his online persona he was very nice in person and knowledgeable about his product. Live models were present showcasing pieces from his male and female lines which was a plus and added to the experience. When I got home and tried on my purchase I was pleased with the fit and the feel of the product. While at the event I joked to Jeffery that I wasn’t going to look like the models so I was a little hesitant but he explained that it’s about how the garment makes you feel and as I sit here typing the garment feels GREAT!  Llewellyn is one of my picks because the designer is skilled in his craft, he is down to earth which is important in this world of giant egos and the product is made with quality and looks good. That’s my 2 cents.  To learn more about the Llewellyn Brand and see some of the collection check it out on Facebook  https://www.facebook.com/pages/Llewellyn/162314823820 and check out the man behind the brand Jeffrey Hawkins as well!
