So Very – Black and White Etsy Summer

Style TF5

   For the beach and beyond…

There’s nothing I love more than scanning Etsy for must-have fashion.  Well, other than dancing, reading, kissing, writing, petting my animals and eating stuff.  So, while we all wait for our favourite Spring fruits to ripen, lets take a look at some warm-weather appropriate clothing.

the Suits

Style TF4Black and white is THE trend for Spring/Summer this year.  SO GLAD!  Tribal patterns, color blocking, and stripes are always awesome…and just your luck!  I’ve found them all for you.  From left to right, clockwise – Excavation LA, detroit LUX, Histoires

the Cover-ups

Downloads3Caftans (far left), shawls, and ponchos are the essence of relaxation after a day in the sun.  Cover up those sun-kissed shoulders and ease into the evening as the moon rises.  A woolen poncho (seen on the right) might be too warm for day play, but the wind gets chilly near the ocean.  Throw it on, and find yourself a bonfire and some friends. Get these here: Destination Home, WildLife TX, and Factory Handbook

 Tops and Bottoms I Love

Downloads2Black and white stripes aren’t just for Tim Burton movies anymore.  And apparently, the stuff I used to be embarrassed about wearing in my Junior High class photos are now covet-worthy (see 90s blouse in lower right corner of collage).  Enjoy these treasures/born again favourites! Get your 90s fix here: Maude Deco, All Wild at Heart, Story of Things, George and Jane

And I can feel the cool washing over me…

So Very: Galaxy Print EVERYTHING

Desktop19

This is the first edition of what I like to call the “So Very” category (if you’ve seen the movie Heathers, you’ll be keen on this title).  So Very will feature trends that I don’t want to roll my eyes at, and would actually wear in public without feeling like a mainstream media sheep.  Galaxy pattern anything is such a trend!

I love the colors, the concept, the DIY ease!  The hubster (Chad, aka The Get Downnn) and I are currently quite obsessed with life beyond Earth, and anything that reminds us we are but a speck of dust in this beautious cosmic landscape!
