The Secret Shop Password is: COZYANDCRIMES (Case-Sensitive!)
Hi fish fries! This early update is being put up late for you guys to give a slightly fair chance since Rachel/Rainylune is opening her secret shop a little later as well so I didn't want our releases to be too far apart!

Dr. Yanas Kisten is also a marine biologist and postdoctoral researcher at the Nelson Mandela University in South Africa, so I really en...

Hi fish fries!!!
I know it's January but I'm already dreaming of spring and am honestly SO over this cold weather π© It's been so cold the past few days which is great because I've been releasing so many sweaters (I LOVE sweaters but just cold weather is a big nono for me).
I have a few designs planned that may or may not be scraped for the next few months but for sure, I'm lookin...

Hi fish fries!!!
I have so much to say now that January's almost coming to its end--especially because we are nearing the one year anniversary from the day I first opened Umvvelt!!
I've definitely come a long way since then, and as always, I really cannot express how much everyone's support means to me over this past year of running Umvvelt. With that being said, I'll be having a sm...

As many of you know, my shop has been closed and all orders have been shipped as of last week! I've been super excited to relax and just get to wind down before the shop opens again! But in that time frame I've been working on new designs instead whenever I try to draw something instead of ""relaxing"" π

Sorry for the late night post! No new merch updates or anything--if anything it's more of a personal post before the year ends! You're more than welcome to skip this post if you want to but if you decide to tag along and read it through, I'd much appreciate it π

Hey fish fries!!! I've been waiting these samples for new button up designs to come in that I wanted to have planned for release some time in 2021!
I'm not too sure when I'd be able to release them--judging from the arrival of Chinese New Year which would cause some delays, I'll probably look to having them released after February! Maybe even in the spring for warmer weather?
