About Us

Welcome to the Oh, Fifi! blog.

Who is Oh, Fifi! ?
Oh, Fifi! is the creation of artist Stephanie Longoria.
I'm Stephanie,  The blogger, a Graphic Designer who creates plushies, pillows, tshirts and most of the products seen on the blog, and in the shop. For the last 5 years I have designed tshirts and plushies for both Studio Longoria & XY Factory, as well as freelanced for other local companies. Oh, Fifi! is my new line for Studio Longoria.  Designing new character plushies is my passion. I pull inspiration for my work from my children, my  culture, and my love of color. Studio Longoria is currently my full time job. I love custom orders, so feel free to contact me with any request and I'll do my best to create that perfect piece of art for you.

What is Oh, Fifi?
Oh, Fifi! started off as just a name for a new shop brought on by my hobby of creating decoden goodies. A friend taught me how to decoden and I fell in love with it. I started with picture frames, then phone cases, moved to mirrors and small pins. When my creations started taking over my studio, I decided to open a new shop for them.
I created Fifi when I was working on my shop banner. She is sort of my alter ego. A girl, with pink hair, who loves glitter and everything about cupcakes. When I saw the awesome response I got from the character, I decided to expand with her image. I created friends and pets for Fifi. I decided that Fifi should be a positive role model for girls. She lives by the motto "Do what you Love, Love what you do!", because that is the motto I live by. I hope to spread that message to others.
All Fifi's friends also have positive messages. Nessa love to read, she hopes that others will share her love of reading. Sunny is a nature lover who hopes to teach the importance of caring for nature. Bay loves the ocean, just as much as she loves science, and Gabs is an excellent athlete who knows the importance of playing fair and staying fit.
With these characters I hope to break free of the "it's cool to be bratty" messages that are all too popular, and spread more positive messages.



Where did the name Oh, Fifi! come from?
The name comes partially from my nickname, Fifi, given to me years ago by my nephew Jordan who at the time couldn't say Stephanie. Oh comes from what most people say when they see cute stuff, ex: Oh, how cute!, Oh, Fifi! That is adorable.
