This site was an idea that lived in my mind for so long, but I’d never taken the leap to bring it to life—until the WIX Dev Challenge came along. Taking on my very first Dev challenge, I finally turned my vision into reality, and I loved every moment of working on it!

Thank you for your time! I’d be grateful for any suggestions or feedback you might have.

Great work!!

The website has a very sophisticated look that matches with the concept of the gems. All the included features alone make it look like a complete package of an online shopping website. Blogs and social media make it more interactive and appealing to the current masses.
