Logo Usage

Color is extremely important to us and generally one of the most memorable aspects of a mark when used consistently. Our logo should never be used in a different color than our primary or alternate color usages.

The orientation of our logo should never be altered. Our logo can only be positioned in a horizontal format.

Shoptiques

The color of the floral emblem should not be altered. The sharp contrast between the two colors will make our logo less legible and difficult to read among our customers.

The different elements of our logo should not be in different colors. The inconsistent color changes throughout the logo mark will look disjointed and confusing to our customers.

Logo Usage

The floral emblem should always sit between “shop” and “tiques”. The emblem should never be seen in a different format. Our logo will lose its’ elegance if it is used in these inappropriate formats.

The size of our floral emblem should not be altered in any fashion. The alarming size difference between the emblem and the words will pose itself to be a legibility issue. To avoid these problems, users should only use the logo in the determined emblem size.

We want photography that will inspire and uplift our customers. We want to stray from showcasing any imagery that demonstrates negativity and melancholy. The image is colorgraded in desaturated colors and the subject is looking very lazy and unproductive. We want our images to promote productivity and positivity.

Shoptiques

We want to avoid imagery that shows indication of laziness and any imagery that includes males. We only want to showcase imagery that targets our specific demographic at Shoptiques. We are a company that specializes in female products; thus, it is very important that we showcase imagery that clearly targets our specific demographic.

Logo Usage

We want to showcase our products in the best possible way. This photograph demonstrates a misuse of our product images. We want imagery that will showcase both our lifestyle and the products themselves. We do not want a poor quality image of a storefront. This image suggests hints of disorganization. Instead, our photographs need to showcase hints of our wanderlust lifestyle and our products.

Shoptiques

This is an example of a misuse of our cityscape photographs. We want to show clear images of the diverse architecture found across the world. This example shows a black and white image of an abstracted building. We want a clear indication of what we are looking at and beautiful colors to complement it.

Logo Usage

This photography misuse is focused on the clothing that the subject is wearing. Photographs need to avoid images of the subject wearing unconservative, crass, or lewd clothing. We want our subjects to be wearing conservative and mature yet fashionable clothing as this will best promote our elegant and productive lifestyle goals.

Salutation Lora Italic; Resort Lover

Dear Ms. Jane Smith, Walking down the streets of Paris, you can’t help but be mesmerized by the fashion, architecture, culture — and the boutiques! Years ago while I was traveling for work, I came across a gem of a store in the Marais district with the friendliest, most stylish owner. At one point, the owner pointed out a pair of shoes by Phoebe Cham Pour Schu, and I knew that I couldn’t leave empty-handed.

Body

Inside their beautiful box complete with the flawless bow, the shoes became the perfect keepsake for me to take home and remember my time in Paris. I still dream about visiting that tiny Parisian store again, but in the meantime, I’ve been lucky enough to discover so many other boutiques, both near and far. Each one is special in its own way, but they all have something in common: beautiful hard-to-find pieces and a knowledgeable owner with a distinct style perspective.

Floral seal overlay

This is why Shoptiques was founded: We want to grant women access to the most stylish boutiques and replicate that same intimate in-store experience. Whether you’re starved for time, looking to find something new, or you live far away from one of your favorite stores, Shoptiques is your online destination to browse, discover, and buy the best boutique merchandise in the world.
