Last week to make an order until August!

On July 6th I will be flying to Europe and staying for three and a half weeks.

Deranged Designs is a one person business, so I will not be able to ship out any new orders while I am away.

If you want to order something before I leave, make your order by Monday July 4th. If you want to order a custom-sewn item (for example animal print hoodies or lace-up leggings) then please order a couple days before the 4th so I have time to sew your order.

You can still order from my website while I am away. I will do my best to answer emails and keep my website updated while I am gone, so that you won't accidentally order any out-of-stock items. I will be back on August 2nd and will ship any new orders ASAP, jet-lag be damned!

If anybody has some suggestions for things I should do while I am in Europe, feel free to comment on this post! I have read a lot about each city I am visiting and I will be doing a lot of the obvious tourist things, but I would love to hear more ideas. I will be spending 2-4 days each in London, Brussels/Bruges, Amsterdam/Utrecht, Nuremberg, Munich, Paris, Cinque Terre (Italian Riveria), and Rome.

I would especially like to hear from any of my European customers. I know you read my blog, because Blogger gives me some pretty detailed statistics! If you aren't sure what I would be interested in, just tell me about your favorite place to drink!

Four new things added to my website! Click on links to see more pictures and item details:

Pink Stretch Lace Tunic (includes long black camisole top), S, M, L, $18

In a few more weeks I will add a small collection of new handmade one-of-a-kind items. After that I will be taking a month off for my Europe trip, so I won't be adding any new clothes until August.

Click on the photos to see their original size on Flickr. Thanks to Laura for modeling and Qiana for photography!

Three of the tops were worn with a reversible stretch skirt, sold here in sizes XS to XL.

Big Sale!

Big discounts on my website this month! I haven't had many local trunk shows or sales in the past year so I have a lot of older items on my website, and I would like to sell as much of it as possible before I leave for Europe next month.

I split the sale section in two parts: the up to 25% off section and the 50% off or more section. From now on I will try to add slow-selling items to the sale sections every month so that items don't end up on my website for too long.

I also have six eBay clearance auctions listed. Each item starts at $5 and bidding will end on Wednesday June 9th.

Lastly, I put four overstock hoodies up for sale for $35, which is $10 off the original price. Sizes and colors include: x-small white zebra, small purple leopard, small pink leopard, and large pink leopard.

If any local Sacramento people are reading this and would like to come over to buy some stuff, send me an email or text message. I have more stuff for sale that isn't listed on my website, including four more animal print hoodies that I'm willing to sell for only $20 each. I don't take pictures of everything that I make, so I always have extra stuff in stock that not many people have seen.

Here is a partial list of sale items. Clicking on the pictures or prices should bring you to the website item page.
