The new site is officially LIVE, and I’m so proud to share it with you!
After focusing on the details for months, it feels good to step back and admire how the pieces have come together into a lovely new whole. I’m doing a little happy dance as we speak.
When I started this project, my hope was to offer a true reflection of the Pure Luxe vibe and to share with visitors what this brand and business is all about. The site needed to be inviting and user-friendly for customers to navigate and shop, and also for me as the primary behind-the-scenes dashboard user. And the fantastic team at Aeolidia nailed it.
THE PROCESS
Since June, Aeolidia has led me through their thoughtful and well-orchestrated design and development process, which they customize specifically for each client’s needs and goals. Our shared workspace and discussions were virtual (BaseCamp is fab), and the communication and organization was top-notch (I SO appreciate organization, clearly defined tasks, and deadlines!).
I’ve learned so much by working with this team of creative professionals - each one a specialist and maker/designer in their own right. Thank you Arianne, Sam, Helen, Ann, Natalia, Caroline, and Jon! You are all so inspiring - thank you for sharing your expertise.

A few new features I'm loving:
