I'm Yasmine, a female entrepreneur from London living in Asia!

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago 

Hey everyone,

I’m Yasmine and i’m brand new to steemit! About 7 hours old in fact.

In 2016 I moved to Asia for the second time, this time to start my own fashion label, HUX. Now I split my time between Malaysia and London. 

I’m here to blog honestly about the realities of having your own business, health, travel and all the other things which shape my life as a small business owner. Also i'm here to support other entrepreneurs and women in business, because I have a huge respect for everyone who is a creator of some kind. After all, we are stronger together!

What's my goal?

My label, HUX, produces handmade products in a socially responsible way. My goal is to help reshape the fashion industry with long-lasting, one-of-a-kind products and make them available at affordable prices.
Since I was a kid, i've always loved unique designs and had an eye for extraordinary things, but I didn’t have a lot of money to splash on designer labels so instead I would spend time hunting at car bootsales or in vintage stores for truly unique things. I wanted great designs to be accessible to me so I could stand out look from everyone else - I suppose that's where HUX came from.

So you can get a feel for the kind of products I design, here's a photo of one of my new creations, the SAKA bucket bag. Feel free to check out my website www.huxthelabel.com and support me on Instagram @huxthelabel for more info.

Why steemit?

I was introduced to steemit by Alla from @allasyummyfood - if you haven’t checked out her mouth-watering recipes, on everything from gluten free brownies to potato & zucchini fritters, you definitely should! 

I love the idea of steemit - a platform full of creators supporting each other and one that truly recognises the input of it's members. Thanks for having me, steemit!

Stay tuned for my lessons and tips and follow me so you don't miss my first post - How Climbing a Mountain Changed My Business.

Love,

Yasmine

Welcome to Steemit Yasmine. I am really impressed by your startup and your vision, the way you are planning to change the fashion industry. I hope you get all the success in life and one day you become a motivational story for everyone on steemit. Being myself, an aspiring entrepreneur, I am looking forward to learn from your entrepreneurial experience and help you if any required.
I joined steemit last week but I can see you have kicked off with a bang. Just upvoted and followed you to not miss out the interesting content coming from you in future.
@suf1an

I think it's very cool that you produce in a socially responsible way! Looking forward to see more about that from you!

Thank you.
Yeah hopefully I will not disappoint you.

Hello and welcome to steemit, @yasminep.

Thank you!

Yasmine, very detailed introduction indeed. Pray your business runs smoothly and become a successful female entrepreneur.

Thank you! Really appreciate your kind words. Also, really enjoying the motivational quotes.

@yasminep, pleasure is all mine. Glad to know that you kinda took out time and checked my profile. It's basically I am trying to be versatile in my offerings. My reach is limited and within that, I m trying to create posts for the platform. I have not been able to get that position where My posts are able to reach out to the masses but, I believe, that desire of mine will be taken care of sooner or later.

Keep at it. From what I understand, consistently good, original content is what wins on this platform. So keep creating!

Hi Yasmine. Welcome. Looking forward to your blog.

Thank you! Love your vegetarian cutlets! They look delicious. I'm a veggie so i'll be trying them!

Welcome to steemit
Make sure to follow me @bankthecrypto

Welcome Yasmine, you sound like an energetic entrepreneur with a great vision!

Thank you so much for your kind words! Absolutely love your focus on mental wellbeing. I'm also really interested in that. I'm following you now

yasminep, yes, mental well-being is a passion of mine, in fact, I just returned from a 5 day silent meditation retreat. I’m convinced yoga, meditation and compassion and loving kindness can ‘save the world’! Thanks for the follow

Wow! I always wanted to try one of those meditation retreats. Was it silent meditation? They have them here in Malaysia. Where did you do yours, if you don't mind me asking?

Yasmin, yes, it was a five day silent meditation & yoga retreat, the longest I have ever been on and I loved it! The hardest part was on my body, sitting in meditation posture. I did it at Joshua Tree Retreat Centre in California USA

That's amazing! I'm going on a reading-spree this afternoon and will check out your blog to read all about this kind of thing. Thank you for getting back to me on this :-)

Have fun reading! I'm still learning about all of this myself, life is a learning journey for sure! Thanks for staying in touch. One of my daughters has been to Malaysia :)

Welcome to steemit :)

Thank you!

Wow that's so cool! I was just reading an article the other day about how many billions of tons of clothing people throw out a year. It's insane, not to mention that a lot of clothing is made from plastic-type materials, which further damages the environment if it ends up in say, the ocean or what not. Sustainable is the future for sure! That's so cool!

I can't say I'm much into fashion. I'm a comedian and a singer. I wear mom leggings and old t-shirts haha, but I secretly envision having an amazing closet, but right now, since I do have to wear fancy clothes when I perform, I am caught in a terrible world of either respectable looking or homeless haha.

I quite look forward to your blog posts, and am especially curious as to how climbing a mountain changed your business! ;) Good luck on here, but from the looks of your first post, you probably don't need it!

I would take mom leggings and old t-shirts over anything else. Except maybe kaftans. Kaftans are king. Really appreciate you taking the time to write such a long and meaningful post. The amount of wastage from fashion is pretty shocking and really ought to be more of a regular and open conversation. Hopefully my posts will inspire you in some way. I'll definitely be following you and supporting you! Sending you love from Malaysia, lady!

Hello. Nice to meet you. I am a Korean steamer. I found your article very interesting. Because I am interested in fashion. hahaha
Communication with Korean people is fun, but I came to read because I wanted to communicate with more steamers~!

Hello how are You

Salam, Yasmine! Welcome, and all the best for your journey here. I love the ethos behind your fashion label, it's hopeful and inspiring!

Welcome to the friendly platform, greetings.

Thank you for the warm welcome!

Hello! best of luck with HUX!

Thanks Kieran!

Hello! Welcome to Steemit!

Thank you!

Welcome !! Nice to meet you.your handmade design is awesome.you will enjoy this community. a very warm welcome to the platform. :)

I'm happy to hear that! Thank you for the message.

Welcome! I like what you said about creating long-lasting fashion items. That is a really big one for me. I would much rather have fewer things but of higher quality. That's how I operate. So I invest in some Redwing boots, for example. Or there's a great EDC bag I bought a few years ago from a company called GoRuck. They're amazing. I use it for everything. So good on you. Look forward to seeing your story develop. Cheers.

Glad to hear you're also concerned with investing in products which last. I will be posting more about that and ways we can all start to make slow changes.

Very nice. Look forward to them.

You're welcome @yasminep to this great community. Thanks for sharing your story and looking forward to learn more from you

Thank you. I'm excited to explore this wonderful community.

What an inspiring story of a determined and focused entrepreneur. People like you usually do well because your concern is to see others succeed, when you said you're here to support other entrepreneurs and women in business.

What is more, you do certainly appear truly creative and purposeful. Your SAKA bucket bag is a sure example of a winning design; and I'm sure there's more where that comes from. No doubt you have many things going for you. I encourage you to keep your focus and maintain your momentum. The sky is your stepping stone.

Welcome!

Thank you of such a thoughtful post. I really appreciate it. Wishing you lots of luck too!

Welcome Yasmine. I also just started today too. Hux sounds like such a great name for a brand. Good luck bud!

Thank you! Wishing you lots of success with steemit too.
