No One’s Perfect
I think everyone has been told that exact thing at least once. Every time I was hard on myself – at getting second place, missing an easy question on a test, or forgetting something I shouldn’t have – my mom would remind me that no one’s perfect; that good intentions are what’s important; that I [...]

Any Luck With “Made It Myself”?
I’ve gotten a ton of leads on fantastic online and local shops, and even have a date with my photographer friend Sarah to go shopping at the Pike Place Market this Saturday. I have had some trouble with one new site, though, called MadeItMySelf.com. MadeItMySelf boasts an Etsy-like intention while offering its sellers a cheaper [...]

It came!
Finally, after a much-distressing wait, my organic cotton sweatshirt by Eco-Ganik finally came! Despite my cold, I was able to snap a few semi-respectable photos: Yes, it’s as comfortable as it looks. The organic cotton is so soft, and it feels almost tailor-fit: the fabric skims my arms without squeezing them, the collar falls right [...]

So about that necklace…
I promised I’d blog about the necklace peeking out of my last post, as well as the other items I’ve purchased from My Lavaliere, and I’m glad to have an excuse to do it: I’d almost forgotten this girl’s serious artistic range. This wasn’t even something I ordered – it came as a gift with [...]

Fake It ’til You Make It
As much as I love to shop small, sometimes a girl needs a Starbucks latte and a big, comfy Eddie Bauer sweater…and when a girl’s as sick as I’ve been for the past few days, she doesn’t want to spend twenty minutes applying makeup. For Christmas I got the justine case “refresher kit” by benefit. [...]

Comfort, Fashion, AND Price?
When it comes to clothing shipments, I am so impatient. I bought this incredibly interesting, nothing-else-like-it shirt during an online Eco-Ganik sale* on the tenth, and finally got a delivery date…for the twenty-third. Even though it’s already the nineteenth, that is WAY too far away. I obviously can’t show off the shirt until I get [...]

Keep Giving
Even when the economy sucks, I can’t help but find little tokens that I have to pick up, just so I can gift them to my friends. Some of the items I’ve found take it one step further, though: they use the proceeds of each purchase to fund charities across the globe. Take LIGHT GIVES [...]

I am such an Etsy whore.
How could I not be? The handmade pieces, the incredibly wide price range, the jewelry and clothes and housewares…Etsy and I were meant to be. What popped my Etsy cherry was a a store by the name of bunny X productions. Knowing that since I was a child I couldn’t resist anything octo-related, someone linked [...]
