Kind Words
"We chose Fancy Girl Design Studio because Pat immediately understood our big ideas and vision - and was actually excited about making it happen! Her bubbly, positive personality made working together so fun and easy. It was also immediately clear that Pat understands luxury marketing and branding, as well as the wedding industry, and has a vast amount of experience with both. As a wedding floral designer in a big city, our appearance online is a matter of (business) life or death - so it was crucial to work with a designer who understands luxury branding. Pat is THE person for that, and she blew me away with her work.
After working with Fancy Girl Design Studio, I feel completely at ease and confident with where my business is headed. That would not have happened with just any designer - Pat is truly gifted at what she does. This process has been totally transformational, from top to bottom, and made me really love my business again. Our new brand has helped us communicate our value to couples, attract the right people, book more gorgeous weddings, and even book our biggest wedding to date! NONE of this would have happened without Pat and Fancy Girl Design Studio! I can't express how grateful I am to have stumbled upon such a wonderful collaboration. The results speak for themselves - more clients, better clients, and more ease in my business. Do yourself a big favor and hire Fancy Girl Design Studio - you will be very happy you did!"

I can’t wait to work with her again in the future"

"This is the Second time around I used Pat at Fancy Girl Designs and I must say I am completely in awe of the result! Pat designed my website for the first time back in 2016 and I was in love with my website and honestly 6 years later did not think I needed nothing more than a little refresh to convey the changes of my company over the years but once I chatted with Pat she made me realize all the growth that I had in fact had in such a short timeframe and made me realize that in order to truly showcase the value that we offer a complete redesign would be the best route to go. In fact Pat made it easy to see! She totally understood my company brand and knew exactly what elements needed to be put into place in order to maximize potential clients visiting my website and converting. Plus Pat was equipped with the know-how to bring my website up to date with current technology and user experience. I have attended several networking events since the launch of my new site and my peers will say things like "your brand is really elevated now" or "you are able to offer your clients a complete experience now" which makes me feel great knowing that my peers now have a better of understanding of what we do and offer which I know translates over to new clients as well. Now they can book with confidence from the first point of contact with us through our website. Couldn’t have done this without you ! My visionary!!!! Thank you Pat ! Didn’t think my first website you designed 6 years ago could be outdone but you blew my expectations out of the water and exceeded my wishes !!!"

"It was a wonderful opportunity to work with an accomplished web designer and experience the process from start to finish. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Patricia on my website. She understood my brief and the impact I was trying to achieve straight away. Patricia was very patient with my changes to the initial brief as I solidified my brand positioning. She pulled everything together in a beautiful, elegant and user friendly design that showcases my services and my personality. I would highly recommend Patricia for any web design project."
- Elizabeth Taylor, Elizabeth Taylor Coaching
"Working with Pat was a wonderful and easy experience. I had been trying to update my website for several months and rebrand. Unfortunately, I ran into some good people who lacked experience and others who were complete scams. Pat is the combination of being an incredible human being with tons of experience.
I felt welcome and relieved that she would solve my web issue from the first moment. With her calm and sweet voice but full of confidence, she guided me from scratch to culminate the most beautiful web page that I had always dreamed of. She listens to you, analyzes you, and pays close attention to your DNA to reflect it in your Brand, sharing images and meetings where she guides you through the process and advises you when she knows something you want will not go well. I am delighted, and I will not only recommend her with my eyes closed, but I will continue to use her always for everything related to my Brand."

Sometimes I just look at my website to fall in love with myself.
I remember the moment when Pat sent over the first draft, I sat with goosebumps and butterflies in my stomach as I was blown away. A website is the essence of every business and therefore utmost important. Pat is not only the most creative person I know (and the bar lies high as I know a few working in this field) but she also understands the functional side of a website which in the end is even more important. What good is a pretty page, if it takes ages to load? So if you are looking for a trusted web designer who’s bubbling over with ideas whilst being one step ahead of the latest technology, look no further. Call her!"

"Thank you so much for the amazing job you did on the design of my logo & website. I love it so much! I am so grateful to you for sticking with me - through it all. You were infinitely patient, extremely responsive, and you have an unerring eye for beauty. I so appreciate your guidance every step of the way. You are a dream to work with, and even though I am in the US and you are in Singapore - it didn’t make a bit of difference."
- Leslie Carothers, Design Happy Living
"Pat is truly AMAZING at what she does, and one of her best traits is she LISTENS. From our first phone consultation she listened to all my needs and concerns. Her presence over ZOOM call was very warm, welcoming, and so friendly that I felt an instant connection.
I had been following Pat’s work for about a year before I had reached out, and every time she put out new work on her social media, my heart flutters. Pat’s knowledge of style, every colors, concept, is so well thought and will elevate and give that high end look to any brand. I knew that she hast to be THE ONE to rebrand my brand.
I am beyond happy with Pat through every step of our journey. She is definitely someone I would trust to rebrand my work in the future and a very HIGHLY recommended! She is the only one I will TRUST because of her brilliant creativity, vision, and style! Thank YOU PAT from the bottom of my heart!"

Pat is the Queen of stylish website design and functionality.
She crafted a captivating, professional website that represents my unique personality and business style to the last detail. My website is literally my business dreams turned reality on screen, and the results of her hard work are already paying off. The conversion rate is 150% more than my old cobbled together site.
Pat is highly professional and innovative. She makes the whole nerve-wracking experience of creating a new website structured, simple and delightful. Her questionnaire was comprehensive and she knew precisely what the purpose of my website needed to be. She answered all my questions with patience, guided me with advice when I was stuck and delivered the website of my dreams.
Pat makes every step of the website creation process worthwhile, and there is no one I trust more when it comes to the design, updates, and upgrades.

Pat truly amazed me with her ability to create my brand beautifully – it was like watching all the puzzle pieces come together into a picture more beautiful than I could have ever imaged alone...Everything is beautiful, full of heart, and reflects the love I have for my clients, my business, and the amazing people I get to meet along the way. How did I get so lucky??? Thank you! My heart is SO full!"

"The client experience is, and always has been, at the center of our work. Our goal is to put our client’s vision first and foremost. With that in mind, I wanted our branding and website to be relatable, inviting, and friendly. I knew I also wanted it to be bright and clean, yet natural and warm. Patricia took that and created magic for us! Her branding and design process was so efficient, streamlined and organized that it allowed us to continue serving and love on our clients while she worked behind the scenes doing what she does best!"

"Patricia was warm and friendly from the very start. When I was put in touch with her after my brand strategy was completed, she immediately understood me and my business. Her approach was structured, detailed and helped me to really think about my brand and how I want to present it to the world. It was very easy working with Patricia as she was very responsive both on emails and WhatsApp. She helped me to think comprehensively what I would need and made some suggestions that really helped me in my business. Other than my website which was beautifully designed and highly functional, she also advised me of what I needed to do for my social media.
During my professional photo shoot, Patricia was there with me to help with the designing of some of the layout of photos to reflect my brand and what I do. Her contribution was priceless!
During the same time, I was in need of a book cover for my new book. It needed to be in line with my new brand. It took me no time to decide that Patricia would be the best person to help me. With my brand in mind, she designed a book cover that was aligned and praised by many of my friends and client!
I am so glad I chose to work with Patricia as she totally understood what I needed. She is definitely the professional designer you want, especially if you are a female entrepreneur running a business of passion! I will definitely go back to Patricia for my future design needs."

Reasons Why I Would Hire Patricia 1,000+ more times
I reached out to Patricia to have her create my photography company’s new logo. Admittedly, I was hesitant to have someone outside of my company handle our branding but her incredible website and on-point Instagram intrigued me.
Patricia was super responsive and even better - she was excited to work with us. Having another person enthusiastic about your company’s branding is invaluable. The positive energy enabled us to reach new creative heights with Patricia leading the way.
Here are 3 reasons why I recommend Patricia:
1. She’s a problem solver: Working together, Patricia helped us better articulate what our brand stood for and helped us solve/figure out what we wanted for the brand’s look/tone/feel. She had the creative eye that we were missing.
2. She’s an expert: Results matter. Patricia delivered world-class creative artwork on-point and on-time.
3. She just… ‘Gets It’: Ever connect with someone and think… “Wow! This person just gets it!”? That’s Patricia. You’ll see what I mean after an email exchange with her. She truly partnered with us as if she was an extension of our company providing valuable insights - not an order taker.

Patricia Alix-Villa, founder of Fancy Girl Design Studio, is a dream come true! Within minutes of inquiry about designing a new website, she responded and the new site was underway! I was so excited, and Patricia knew exactly how to capture my vision. When she showed me the first test copy of the site, I cried! It was 100 times more beautiful that I even imagined. She captured the essence and the emotion of what I do as a wedding designer & planner. I will be forever grateful. She was super fast, and we were in communication during the whole process. It was a piece of cake! I highly recommend her talent to everyone. The response I am already receiving on my website has doubled my business for 2018! I owe my success to her creativity and true talent. I cannot thank her enough!

Pat was the no nonsense, get it done and make it look fabulous person I need in my life. Pat understood my love of color, shapes and sparkle right off the bat. Pat is patient like no one I have ever known. I would send her detailed emails about tiny changes I needed to see and magically, she made them happen. Every logo she showed me could have been “the one”. With every new design I was more and more in love with the way my website looked.
On December 2, 2017 the website and re-brand finally went live and within a week I had booked my biggest client to date. I give all the kudos to Ginny and Pat for putting up with me over 5 months. Thank you! I am so grateful that they came into my life when they did. If you need to re-brand, hire them!!

I absolutely ADORE what you've done so thank you so very much. You've been so patient with me and I really appreciate it. You totally ROCK with bells on!!!
- Natalie McKenzie-Brown, McKenzie-Brown Photography
Everyday I am falling in love with my logo, website all over again. I was a bit hesitant in changing my previous logo, but when the first designs came out, I knew I made the perfect decision in changing it and keeping an overall feel and look for my branding that represented not only my ideal clients, but myself. She took all the elements that I was looking for in a logo, and created the unexpected. She is super fast, patient and talented.
When we moved on to the website portion of things, she had the patience to answer all my questions, and the patience to wait on me to come up with contents. She created something beyond my wildest dreams, that I am so proud of. Every time I wanted to change something, she created a solution, as I absolutely love her promptness, her knowledge. I completely trusted her as I did not have to explain myself, as she totally understood what I was looking for. I trusted her in knowing that her recommendations were the best for the overall look. I seriously don't have enough words to tell you how grateful I am to have found her, as this process was worth the investment. Every time I pass out my cards, every time people ask who did my website, I get a sense of love that I would love to share with the world, and that love, Patricia gave me. So saying thank you yesterday, today, tomorrow might never be enough on truly knowing how thankful I am to have found someone as wonderful as Patricia. The experience was truly wonderful!
