She Draws designed a telephone necklace…check it out…

And now look at a copy that Claire’s Accessories have ‘designed’ and are selling for a mere £2.

Of this blatant theft, She Draws says ‘My feelings were very mixed since it is a completely direct design copy which features my very own hand writing. I promptly went to the store this afternoon and purchased the necklace (which happened to be in the sale for a mere £2 to add as insult to injury!) to get a better idea of what has gone on. The design is exactly the same however the production was sloppy and therefore a little reassuring but never the less I have to remember that they are making money from my design to which I have never received one penny or ever been asked for permission.

I know there is not much I can do about this right now and since it was in the sale it probably means it has taken it course in the shops already but yet I feel I need to do something about this to let them know they have sloppy designers and the big boys at Claire’s need to be more aware of this kind of thing.’

Please let us know how to help She Draws to tackle this issue and of course repost to your blogs, Facebook, Twitter – anything. Claire’s should not be allowed to get away with this!

Katrina This outfit just makes me feel so happy, like a tap dancing sailor!

Katrina This dress has been in my wardrobe for six months and hasn’t ever been worn out for a number of reasons, generally my friends fear of the dead fox and yellow being a terrible colour on me. However this is still of of my favourite pieces and I get so much joy from just seeing the little fox peeking out from the rail from time to time.

Katrina This top, I always wear as a dress over black opaque tights and its probably the best two quid I have ever spent. The puff ball jacket makes me feel like a Mr Whippy and the shoes are the most gorgeous stack-heel loafers from clarks.
