Journal No. 03 - A Quarter of Quiet Impact: Our Journey Begins

As we approach Remembrance Day, we’d like to remember our first valued members who believed in us from the beginning. With respect, and in compliance with our privacy principles, we will not share names but will identify you privately via a personal 'Thank You' email. We are now accountable to you—and honoured to share a glimpse of what we’ve built together since our launch in late June. 

In our first quarter, we averaged two sales per week across the Vonamê Tote Bag and Card & Note Holder—each one a testament to thoughtful design meeting intentional living. 

We grew quietly but clearly through:

• Minimal, natural marketing via Instagram, Pinterest, and, most recently, Youtube;
• 45 printed brochures shared with valued partners across Canberra and New South Wales;
• The launch of the Vonamê Principles—a 365-day guide to living with elegance and intention.

 

We've reached nearly 30k views between 21 July and 18 October via Instagram and an average of 140K monthly views on Pinterest.

This is only the beginning. With your trust, we’re not just building a brand—we’re nurturing a community rooted in purpose, presence, and timeless style.

The Vonamê Principles were launched on 30 September 2025 as daily lessons in carrying yourself with the same intention we weave into every bag. They guide you to stand the test of time with grace, to lead with quiet intelligence, and to cultivate a personal elegance that, like your V accoutrement, only deepens with age. We’ve begun sharing these principles not only on Instagram but also through our newest Youtube channel, offering another space to refine your journey toward a life of quiet luxury.

This journey is not just about what you carry; it’s about how you show up. We invite you to join our founding members in carrying the V Bag and living the V Principles. Follow our daily guidance and become part of a community redefining luxury with intention via @vonameofficial. 

Thank you for walking this path with us.

With quiet confidence,

Mari Gervais
