TGIF

May you feel like a princess this weekend!

Designed for the whimsical girl at heart.

This dreamy rose chiffon dress arrived for me in the mail yesterday and I absolutely cannot wait for my boyfriend to take me out so I can wear it! New clothes make me feel like a princess.

Side-note: I am a firm believer in treating yourself to new clothes from time to time. Don’t worry if you are on a budget. (most of us are) Thrift stores, goodwill & yard sales are great bargain places to spiff up your wardrobe! Actually they make up my favorite places to shop.

But where did this lovely addition to my wardrobe come from? . . .  ETSY!

You may or may not have heard of this little piece of heaven. (If you haven’t, please have a look  around,  maybe even purchase something!) ETSY is a wonderful way to support independent artists and gain unique style. 🙂 It is defined as a “vibrant market place where you can buy or sell homemade and vintage items.” Here is their mission statement:

We are anthropologists of commerce. We’re curious about people and what they make, exchange and consume. By looking around at the stuff that matters to our lives, we believe we can understand more about what moves us as human beings.

Around the world, there’s a new clamoring to know the story behind what we buy — who made it, how, what route did it travel to our door? We’re here to tell these global stories, to introduce you to makers and collectors and the history of their goods.

In a perfect world I would quit my day job, start an ETSY shop, blog all day and consume lots of coffee. Who is with me?
