I know a while ago I talked about white clothes in general. But yesterday I went shopping downtown and most of the new collection is either for late summer or fall (who wants to buy fall clothes and sweaters in a 30 Celsius degree day???) aaaaand all the shops had in the new collection white shirts/blouses. Yes, with a hippie style.

This summer I realized how nice they are and how they can make anyone look pretty :) And now that they are more popular, I have to say I am starting to like them.

So here I have a small selection of white shirts/blouses I found in Etsy. That's the first two rows. Then the third row are feather dresses! Refinnej commented on Rihanna's get the look post that she wishes somebody in Etsy would make a dress like the one worn by Rihanna in the photo and I found a couple similar ones! :) Hope you like them hehe

Sellers, from left to right, top to bottom, are (link to the item): leamor, lindenlaneclothing, MinkaArt, cookiesandcreme, VintageEtc, kandisnaks, SHauteCouture, caitmayer, nicolettelefaye

Hope you liked this trend! Will you be wearing it? I already eyed some white shirts I saw in the mall (sorry for not buying handmade this time!!), so maybe soon they are mine mwuahaha!

First of all, I hope you like the new blog design =)

New blog, new name, new everything!

But I still keep working on fashion trends applied to the handmade world... so today I'm writing about Maxi Dresses.


Ok, I have never dared buy a maxi dress. First of all because being a tall and not very thin girl, well, I thought it made me look even bigger if you know what I mean.

But I have to say it looks really cute. Really really cute for summer evenings =) So I might try this year get one, and I'll tell you how it went hehe

What to wear with a maxi dress? Well, you wanna go the boho/hippy/beach style with these, so try to grab a pair of flat sandals in whatever color you like. If the dress is a bit more formal then get some heels, you know ;)

So, wanna look like a hollywood star in a maxi dress but cheaper and handmade? Here are my Etsy picks for this trend:

Sellers, from left to right, top to bottom, are (link to the item): ujufashions, DewberryVintage, ancestorvintage, lilybrush, NikitaJade, BlackRavenVintage, figsntwigs, Madrone, DewberryVintage, beigebeigebeige, naKiMuli, vintageitville

These are some of the dresses I found in Etsy, but believe me, there are many many more.. so if you like this style, you know where to look now ;)

Did you like this trend? Will you be wearing it this summer? Or creating some maxi dresses to sell? If so please let me know! ;)

Also please post any comments you might have about the new design of the blog. Do you like it better? Hate it? Something you would change / improve? Please let me know :)

Soon will be placing some ads on the sides, what do you think about this? You think it should remain an ad free blog? Or you don't mind? Help me decide =)
