The road-side Beach Happy, in the tourism belt in West End, is the location for the newest collector’s item in Anguilla called the AXA Bracelet. Beach Happy is owned by Ms. Rolanda Webster, supported by her family and friends.
Ms. Webster spoke about the launch of the AXA Bracelet on Saturday, May 21. “I am very excited and happy to be presenting a piece of Anguilla which visitors and locals can buy. Everybody is taken up with the AxA brand and I am happy to be the authorised dealer in Anguilla. The bracelet has the AXA logo on it which stands for Anguilla and we also have the Island Girl chain. So it is all about Anguilla.”
The supplier is fashion lover of St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands, Ms. Michelle Moreland, who has her own jewellery business there including the VI Bracelet. She has been visiting Anguilla at a younger age and acquired a love for the island and its people – and has therefore undertaken to hold the second launch of her bracelet in Anguilla.
“I am the designer for the AXA Bracelet and I am partnering with Rolanda of Beach Happy, Anguilla,” the designer stated. Rolanda is the retailer of the bracelet. It is made of stainless steel in sizes for children, women and men – and comes in gold, silver and black. I designed them and got my manufacturer in Miami to produce them. I had a random idea which started with the VI Bracelet and then I looked at all the other initials or abbreviations of the names of the other islands and I decided to do Anguilla next. So it was just a matter of having a sample done and I am happy with this launch of the AXA Bracelet.
“I would like to pass on this tip to aspiring young ladies and other persons in Anguilla,” Ms. Moreland added. “If you think of any idea, don’t wait for someone else to do it – just get up and do it.”
