Hey everyone! I know it has been quite a while since I have published a blog post, but I'm back with some tragic news.  Our Instagram account, Shop_LuckyLace, recently got hacked. Some sick person decided to hack onto our account, and post a nasty pornographic photo. Someone then reported the photo, and Instagram contacted me to verify who I was. Little did they know or care, that they were negatively impacting a small business in a huge way.  With this happening, Instagram restricted my audience, which was definitely hurting business. We tried reaching out to them, but heard nothing back...

Trying Something New

Posted by Tawnylace Taino on

If any of you have ever wondered who the owner of Lucky Lace is, that's me in the photo above. My name is Tawnylace. I have yet to find a model, so until then, I will be trying my best to bring my clothing to life. If you would love to be a model and are in the Los Angeles/Inland Empire area, shoot me an e-mail.  As you might already know, I am trying this whole blogging thing out. Surprisingly, I actually love it. So, let's try something new... In the photo I am wearing the most comfortable oversized, lightweight sweater: Bonfire...

At the beginning, I was just using my iPhone 5 to take photos of my cousin modeling my clothes, along with the product shots. It just wasn't cutting it anymore. This is when I made another...

M O M life

Posted by Tawnylace Taino on

Being a mom and business owner is a life filled with trying to balance both, without neglecting one or the other. Lucky for me, I work from a laptop and phone from wherever we are. Sometimes, while I am "hanging out" with my family, and simultaneously on the phone, life just doesn't feel right. I begin to feel that sense of neglect. In reality, my body is there, but my mind is working on an order. When this feeling becomes overwhelming, I remember what is truly important to me: FAMILY. For this reason, we made some changes to the photoshoots. Instead of it...

Hey everyone! Let me start off by saying, I will commit to this whole blog thing, I promise! Okay,my promise to you all is that I will start posting at least once a week. Baby steps right?  Now, back to the reason for this post. I am a huge supporter of local businesses, especially all these amazeball cafes that have been popping up around me. Today, I tried Platform 909 for the first time, in Chino Hills, CA. When I entered, I was greeted with a smiling face. Simple, sleek menus hung above the workspace behind the counter. Industrial lighting, brick,...
