Wild Oats Boutique
Friday, July 17th, 2009
This design was a make over for a clothing boutique that needed a more exciting and one-of-a-kind look to fit their image better. We built the new Wild Oats Boutique in Magento, our favorite shopping cart program, and designed a newsletter template to match the new site.
We started with some rough ideas like using lots of fun textures and creating a leopard print background to match the new printed bags they were using at the store. It was tricky to get the leopard print texture to match the feel of the bags and be able to wrap or repeat but we persevered and the result is worth it. We added some textures (like warm-toned papers, a vintage picture frame and velvet ribbon) with a vintage chic look and ended up with a truly gorgeous and unique design.
Our favorite part of this site is the various scraps of paper, ribbon, paper tag and other small decorative elements that combine to give this a hand-created feel that screams “Boutique!”.
