Happy Shopping!

Happy Thanksgiving to the american readers! =)

Some of you will be super tired after a day of celebrating with the family, and although tomorrow is Black Friday, some of you rather shop from home. Take a look at our past gift guides to find great gifts! And, if you don't find anything suitable and are not sure what your friend might like, why not get a gift certificate?

I have searched for the best gift certificates, in the best etsy stores, and I bring you a small selection. Believe me, all the shops are worth checking out. (In my shameless self promotion I also added a gift certificate from my store hehe)

Sellers, left to right, top to bottom: MiChiMa, sarahseven, belleandboo, phydeaux, gilbea, MixologyMakeup, toybreaker, mcaplan, SistersSimpleSoap, simonewalsh, craftpudding, thenoisyplume, justmare, TextStyle, modica, malam

I am pretty sure that if you haven't already found the perfect gift, at least one of these gift certificates will suit you. There is a little bit of everything: clothes, Bath&Body, art, accessories, jewelry, makeup, pottery, decoration and even things for men!
Good luck on your shopping!!

Also wanted to mention that I have added 2 new silk bracelets to the winter collection and are now in the shop!



And on a side note, I am getting a little frustrated with the job hunt... Seems with this global crisis most projects are being slowed down and positions I had been interviewed for are now non existant! SIGH Let's hope January 2009 treats me better. I have a lot of free time now, so thinking on joining a gym... anybody knows of good work out websites? Thanks!

I just created a video to promote shopping in european shops for christmas gifts. Hope you like it!

To find european shops: European Shop Catalog
Or type in the search bar in Etsy 'europeanstreetteam'

Enjoy! =) And have a Merry European Christmas shopping spree!
Remember to shop in November for getting your presents in time for the Holidays.

I was running out of ideas for fashion blog posts, so I run to the Etsy forums to ask people what kind of outfit would they like me to search for in Etsy. I thought I could do a massive search to accomplish one look with Etsy items :)
Read some of the ideas in the forum.

A few people said they were looking for a summer dress but couldn't find in Etsy one they liked, so today I tried my best to find some nice ones in different styles (didn't do goth style, I'll do that in a next post)

Here are my Etsy picks:

Sellers, from top to bottom, left to right, are (link to the item): gaiaconceptions, Wildewear, Madrone, strangelittleduck, LaMadeleine, colorada, replicca, gaiaconceptions, enigmavintage, OracleClothiers, LaMadeleine, missbrache, missbrache, colorada, gaiaconceptions, Wildewear, VenniCaprice, Branches, mapetiteamy, themachinestops, cherrypievintage, neneee, VenniCaprice, sweetcharlotte, hodgepodgedesign, ktjean, themachinestops, VenniCaprice, VenniCaprice, fabricfun, themachinestops, decades

It's easy to see my favourite clothing shops for dresses in etsy! missbrache, VenniCaprice, themachinestops, gaiaconceptions and Wildewear. Just waiting to have money to get a dress in any of this shops! =)

I hope you liked this post and that it helps you out somehow with your dress hunt.
