Shopping event!

Hello lovelies!

Yesterday was the shopping event at the American Club in Tai Tam which featured over 20 vendors of all types from home deco, jewellery, greetings cards and even a vendor specifically for funky clocks!

We got some great feedback and we had a lot of happy customers and everyone seemed to love our new Maka collection.

Usually when we go to these shopping events we try to understand the event and what type of people will show up so we can cater to their style, so we think about their age and look at past event pictures if we can to determine what to bring because of course we have A LOT of stock! Our Maka pieces start at a great price, around $200 and go up and over $10k which are all sterling silver or gold, adorned with beautiful precious and semi precious stones.

Check out our pictures from the event!

Guerilla Galleria

Last Sunday while Kanch was in India, Maria, Kanch's cousin and I woke up early and journeyed to a cool concept space called Fill In The Blank that hosts tons of different events from coffee making, fashion and beauty events such as creating your own organic lip balms and more.

We were approached by Sara from Sara's Henna to be a vendor for Guerilla Galleria amongst 9 other creative vendors.
The KC team were super excited for this event as it was the perfect timing to release our new collection: Maka by Kanchan Couture.
Kanch decided to create a collection that was a little different from our fashion jewellery and come out with more classic, timeless, elegant pieces made of 925 Silver and Gold with natural gemstones.

I love the variety Kanch created with these pieces, the price range is fantastic and theres so many different coloured gems to suit everyones style and stone sizes to suit wherever you're going, cocktail party, engagement party or just a lunch date.

We had so many wonderful compliments on the day about our new pieces and made some ladies very happy!













I want to thank FTB and Sara for hosting a wonderful event with great live music and unique and friendly vendors.

Stay tuned and follow our facebook page as we'll be participating in more events in the coming months to promote our new Maka line as well as weekly deals coming up in the next few weeks!!

Summer Stylin'

In this horrible weather we've been having lately but I've been very optimistic about the summer and sunshine so I thought i'd blog about your summer must-haves.

Last week I bought a couple of dresses online and having them arrive is exactly like Christmas, except you know exactly what you're going to get. Unfortunately I haven't been able to wear any of them due to the weather but that hasn't stopped me from buying more and coordinating outfits in my head- haha.

I've complied a list of things that you can build on that a perfect summer styles. Start with the basics and go from there!

The first of course is sunglasses, whether you're on the beach or you're just having a walk about. Sunglasses look great and they offer good protect from the sun so pick a pair that match your face shape.


Summer shoes used to consist of just flip flops and sandals but now there are Toms, Espadrilles, Jelly Sandals, or Grecian sandals so pick a pair that a ideal for your day. 

Summer dresses of course are ideal because they come in all shapes and sizes, prints and fabrics suited for where you are. Wear lighter breathable fabrics such as jersey or mixed fabrics to minimize the heat. Wear a maxi dress or sun dress for different occasions and choose some fun prints or bright colours to bring out your skin tone.


Love, Petra

Plan to Shoot

The other day we had talented local photographer Chris stop by our office for a meeting about a possible collaboration shoot for our new jewellery lines!

I won't say too much about the new jewellery because we're also planning an event to unveil the new collections, yup collectionS! We've gone in a different direction to our fashion pieces and I am so thrilled about learning and working on new endeavors.

So the pieces in our new collections are slightly smaller than the pieces before, and definitely more shiny and for a slightly different demographic.

In our meeting we discussed locations, hair, make up and models but as its in the beginning stages we're stil pulling inspiration and ideas together.
I love this part of planning a shoot, going through magazines and websites to pull different images for possible ideas.

Because we want the main focus to be the jewellery, we're thinking of going soft, subtle and natural.
I was thinking of mainly beach shots because they seem to be the most appropriate for the look we're going for.









My second idea is to do something more intimate and relaxed, like a "getting ready" sort of theme. I was watching the Louis Vuitton Fall 13 RTW show and Marc Jacobs said something that I was really inspired by, that the collection was based on a fabulous woman that was getting ready but ended up with nowhere to go but looked ready and wasn't phased by the fact that she had nowhere to go.
I imagined this amazing independent woman getting ready in front of the mirror in a hotel in Paris while the sun was setting, putting on her makeup. It was subtle makeup, hardly any but still beautiful and city ready. She puts on her jewellery and a simple black dress but finds out the party in cancelled so she just sits around her hotel room all dolled up but nowhere to go. 









Which do you like better?

Love, Petra

Pretty in Pink

If there is one colour in the rainbow that suits everyone, I'd say it has to be pink. Whether you're skin tone is dark or light there is more than one shade that suits you.

The great thing about this colour is that it doesn't just stop with clothing, you can wear different lipstick shades, from light to dark or even hot pink if you're daring enough. But since summer is almost here, its time to break out your gorgeous floral prints, pretty pastels and flowy fabrics.

To be honest, I don't really wear pink, not because I don't think it suits me I just think its a bit too girly for my taste. I do wear pink when I can in moderate amounts, like lipstick or an accessory like a bag or scarf just to brighten my whole look but I'm not a fan of too much pink.

When it comes to style, its all about personal preference which is what makes your style unique. Kanch loves colour and certainly loves pink.

For those that love the accents:
If only touches of pink suit you then you might want to try subtle hints such as lipstick. There are so many shades out there you just have to pick the one that compliments your skin tone and the rest of your outfit. If you're wearing lots of bright colours already, you might want to stay away from a vibrant shade and go for something softer. 


For those that like to deck out:
If you do like a lot of pink make sure you do it moderately and it works with your entire outfit. You don't really want to wear neon pink with other neon colours unless you're traveling back to the 80s for a rave party. Wear some dark or dull colours but dress it up with a hot pink trench coat. You always want to balance out what you're wearing so it doesn't look over worked or over powering.

Check out some of our favourite pink pieces from our collections:

Green with Envy

I wanted to do a post on colours since its been a while and of course, we're sort of known for our bright and eye catching palette.

Green is one of my favourite colours and the great thing about it is it works for every season, just change the tone from pastel for summer to forest or christmas green for autumn/winter.
It's also a colour that works well on all skin types but generally better on brunettes. The colour creates a beautiful backdrop for dark hair and brings out the colour of your eyes.
So I complied somethings that are eye catching, fun, flirty and feminine to suit your personal taste.
My favourite skirt has to be the Pencil skirt with detachable train, it's versatility is one reason why i find it appealing. Its form fitting shape makes it great for all sizes and its train is perfect if you're not 100% confident.
Close for 2nd place is our high waist Green Brocade Skirt, that can be worn with some high top kicks or classic ballet flats or heels. Kanch sourced a gorgeous fabric that is a silk brocade if you love subtle detail. Its also a great palette for you to build on with accessories, jewellery or some fun extravagant heels.









These are a pair of my favourite earrings from our gold collection adorned with gorgeous ombre green agate stones. One of our most extravagant pieces for a more out there personality. 


If you're a more of a classic gal, these are a perfect fit for you. Not extravagant but has the right amount of glamour and elegance. Remember stay true to your style! 

Love, Petra
