I would like the look and feel of the site to come across like a high-end fashion store; I don’t want it to come across as cheap. I would like people to feel that they are buying quality trendy items. It’s a niche market I’m aiming at but I hope them to visit the site because they know they are getting the best one off items.

    This website is a close example of what I am currently thinking of. I like the image slideshow that I could use to show my latest items.

    I really like this site, apart from the horrible wallpaper boarder. I think the Liberty logo is great and almost want to copy it slightly.
    I like the general layout along the top.

    These two website are stores that are selling similar items, I however don’t like their websites, its just a example of what field I am in.
