$700 Billion Bail Out Cramping Your Style?

2008-10-04T20:04:00-05:00

Many folks are shuddering at the thought of gifting in the upcoming holidays and wondering how to manage. And while some families and friends are deciding to go without exchanging gifts, we here at Etsy want to urge those who will be shopping to consider supporting independent artists and crafters this holiday season. Then you can be sure that your shopping money will go to real people and rather than through the mass-production retail system, which (not to be too preachy) often involves sweatshop labor.

Everyone likes a good bargain, and buying handmade has the added value of really making a difference for a seller. Etsy admin Mary has just posted a Weekend Deals selection. You can find affordable options in our "Everyday" Gift Guide, get a custom item made to your specifications through Alchemy, or hey, learn how to make something yourself! In which case, you should join in to our Virtual Labs Monday Crafts Nights or see the How-to section of the Storque!

Etsy Finds Vintage: Trends on a Budget

2008-08-15T10:11:00-05:00

As the seasons change and the back to school shopping season reaches full tilt, the itch to revamp your wardrobe is irresistible. The question is how to update your closet without going broke, especially in the case of penniless college students and those looking to stand out from the crowd while on a budget.

The key, my friends, is Etsy Vintage! As the saying goes, "everything old is new again," and the trends for the coming season are no different. With a few carefully calculated purchases, you can combine vintage with basics to produce a skillfully coordinated look that updates your existing style, whatever it may be. Happy shopping!

Judy Stipes Cardigan

This fashion-forward cardigan could be worn as a tunic over leggings, a vest with skinny jeans or another layer for brisk fall mornings. At musketear, $24.

Accessories dress up even the most staid outfit. This necklace will bring the sass to any otherwise boring shirt. At ragtraderrelic, $42.

JAPANESE DESIGNER Camel Fin Seamed AVANT GARDE Vintage 80's Slouch Jacket S/M

This jacket is totally avant garde, and I've already bought mine for fall—vintage, of course! The slouch shape reminds me of Comme des Garcons. At Catbooks1940s, $85.

Vintage Brass Bangle Set

Bangles work on everyone. They also bring an innate sense of sophistication to any outfit, a la Vogue editor of yore Diana Vreeland. At urbanheirloom, $40.
