.WHAT IS THE REASON OF YOUR NAME?
.WHAT IS THE REASON OF YOUR NAME?
FAIMA: My real name is Iliyana, but in internet all know me like Faima. I don't remember exactly how it appears, but when I opened my Etsy shop I decided to call it like this, on my popular nickname.
TRE PIGMENTI: Tre Pigmenti in Italian means "Three colors". It refers to red, yellow and blue, the three primary colors, all nature needs on her palette to paint what we see every day. The variety of natural tones, textures and shades is my primary source of inspiration.
SWAGG: I am originally from Los Angeles CA, in the USA. Being influenced by the celebrity life style and working on jewelry design projects for celebrities at the start of my business, I decided it would be cool to name my handmade jewelry design business, "Swagg Jewelry Designs".
Swag Stands for S. Stuff, W.we, A. all, G.get. ( Stuff we all get) I had to add an extra "G" because someone already used "Swag" as their website name. It's a slang term that refers to all the luxury jewelry, designer clothes and other cool stuff celebrities get as gifts to help promote and create brand awareness for designers. These items are given out when the movie and music award ceremonies are happening, when they dress up for the cameras and T.V. appearances.

. THE RIGHT ENERGY FOR A CREATIVE: WHAT'S YOUR IDEAL LUNCH?
FAIMA: Sandwiches:) With chicken, cheese, etc. Green or greek salad. Mango juice. And my favorite chokolate- for energy:)
TRE PIGMENTI: Soft white bread and dark black chocolate. A true creativity booster!
SWAGG: My ideal lunch would be a nice Thai or any Asian dish with lots of vegetables, seafood or chicken, and lots of flavorful spices, with noodles or rice. I just love Asian food because it's not fattening or heavy and it's full of flavor. That always gets my mind in a creative mood.

. WHAT IS THE FAVOURITE ITEM THAT'S IN YOUR HOME?
FAIMA: My elefant collection and my 200 pairs of shoes collection
TRE PIGMENTI: That's difficult, I'm a object fetishist, I collect everything that strikes me, so my house is full of worthless old things. I went to continental Greece in April and I brought home an old nomadic shawl, beautifully knit, but with an hole in it! However, the object I feel most attached to is my grandfather's wooden suitcase.
SWAGG: I have so many favorite things in my home. I'm an art collector, so I have many paintings and art pieces from artists/friends I've met doing artisans markets from all over the world. I also have lots of little trinkets I've collected from the many trips I've taken over the years, that mean a lot to me.

. WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN IN YOUR LAST TRIP?
FAIMA: Egypt. It's long trip, with many adventures, and a lot of experience. You can see more in my Egypt blog: http://guapa-fashion.blogspot.com
TRE PIGMENTI: My husband and I went to Maremma to see my in-laws and visited Argentario, Etruscan sites and wonderful villages like Montalcino. We brought home oil, sweets and loads of inspiration.
SWAGG: My last trip was at the beginning of September 2010. I had an artisan, handmade, craft market I participated in, in Amsterdam. The market was a total success. I met lots of interesting people and was able to stay a couple of days longer to explore the city. I highly recommend going there. The city has such a creative vibe and the people are the nicest I've ever met.
Earlier at the beginning of this Summer, me and my husband took a week trip to Hamburg, Germany. Also, a fun place to explore. Lots of cool indie shops and cultural things to do.

. WHAT'S YOUR MUST-HAVE FOR THIS AUTUMN?
FAIMA: Oh, they are a lot.I am fashion addicted, and always follow fashion trends. But for this autumn must- have for me is The Jersey Maxi Dress.
TRE PIGMENTI: Wood, wood and more wood… Possibly reclaimed. Or a belt sander… not exactly girly-girl, is it?
SWAGG: I was just today looking at the front page of Etsy and discovered the coolest sweater I've ever seen. It's perfect for Autumn weather, with a high neck that looks like a knitted scarf, that overlaps into a really cool modern design, but with a somehow a traditional look. It's made by a designer from Buenos Aires, with the shop name "Ovejanegra". The web link to the sweater is http://www.etsy.com/listing/57423129/riona-hand-knitted-cardigan-coat-cream. It's definitely a must have piece I have to have. I'll be putting in my order shortly.
I think this sweater would go perfect with my "Caged Pearl" earrings, listed in my Etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/listing/37286812/caged-pearl-earrings.
