Coty Lee On Etsy

Thursday, March 4th, 2010 Posted in Clothing | 5 Comments »

You KNOW how I am forever trying to find plus sized clothing on Etsy? Well…I FINALLY found Coty Lee on Etsy who not only custom made me two pieces, (one of which I am wearing right now) but they are SO AWESOME! It blows my mind that I am in NY and she is in NC and yet she was able, with nothing more than my measurements to make me the two most amazing tops in my closet right now. They fit PERFECTLY. I knew that since I was not right in front of her there was always the risk of things running a bit too big or too small, but it was perfect, end of story. Obviously I have to share her with you, even tho I’d love to keep her all to myself. So without further ado, here are some pieces from Coty Lee, who you should absolutely check out!

The first piece is what I ordered, one in all grey and one in blue with black accents. The second piece is from her new Spring line and I am sure more will be coming soon! The jacket is something I just loved, and am still considering…I feel it could definitely be worn into the Spring…and the color is just beautiful! I will be happily stalking her store from now on.

“Ruffled Tie Neck Dress with Pintuck Pockets” $85

“Red and Tan Pocket Dress with Buttons” $78

“Pintuck Cranberry Fleece Jacket” $125

I am addicted…TO THE CUTEST HEADBANDS ON EARTH!!!  So, for the holidays my husband in his infinite wisdom checked my Etsy favorites…(smart man I trained him well) and there he found the most adorable headbands from Angie Sloan of Gazzu on Etsy.  She also makes ponytail holders and necklaces and…oh…you will just have to go and see for yourself…but here are a few to tease you over there first!

Ok, so I admit it, it’s a shameless post but I had to do it!  I recently decided to change my Coquito for Etsy shop into something different from my website.  I have recently become interested in a more vintage feel, and started to play with it a bit.  Buying beads from other Etsyians, I started putting together a collection of vintage and mod styled pieces.  Let me know what you think!  here are a few pairs of earrings, there are a few necklaces to come hopefully this week too!

“Antique Blues” $22

“Baroque Pink” $20

“Vintage Green Swarovski Disco Balls” $18

Replicca Clothing Company

I am forever having an Indie Clothing downer because I have yet to find a company who carries a real plus sized line, sooooooooo since I cannot buy from most of these companies, I have to share them with the rest of you, with the hopes that you will be able to partake in the fun and inspiring designs for me!!!  I was looking for red, (it’s a favorite color of mine) and up popped this Red Riding Hood dress/tunic from Replicca Clothing.  I was instantly intrigued, so I continued to browse and am I glad I did.  There are tons of absolutely adorable tops and tunic dresses available from their shop.  I was attracted to the shoulder detailing and also the feminine bows and ruffles!  Hailing from Ontario Canada, all the shop’s owner and designer Rebecca Duyzer want to do is “romace her sweing machines all day”, and from the looks of her designs I think that’s a good idea…keep em coming!

1. “Patchwork the Second, Large” $47

2. “Tease Me Please, SALE, Small” $32.75

3. “Ruffle Ruffle Bow, Small” $46

4. “Stripe Me Delighted, Medium” $47

5. “Little Red Riding HOOD, Large” $55

6. “Sail Away With Me, Medium” $38.75

CS Designs

Monday, September 8th, 2008 Posted in Jewelry | 4 Comments »

I revisit this next CS Designs Etsy shop (Cserdan) many times a year and I even own some of her pieces!  What keeps bringing me back is her gift, she can re-invent simplicity…over and over again!  Her necklaces, bracelets and earrings are earth-inspired pieces that are simple, yet so complicated…they are many colors, but are balanced all at once in one necklace.  “How hard can it be to string beads together?” Is a question I’ve heard one too many times at craft shows…and it always irks me.  The amount of patience, and talent and understanding of color and textures that goes into doing what she does floors me!  The colors and shapes and textures actually make me hungry almost, they’re that savory and rich!  I’m actually kinda bummed featuring this necklace, for I am sure someone will scoop it up!  I actually find myself wondering why she isn’t an interior designer too…and I wonder what her house must look like…

“Lovely Medina” $95

“The Winds of Change” $58

“Acorns in Moss” $22

It’s not cold yet, but it will be soon…YAY! That means it will be time for comfy sweaters, and knits! On that note, I saw these pieces by Coccole di Lana on Etsy’s main page Saturday afternoon. I really love the first one, it’s got a vintage feel, and I love the flower details. Each one has a different stitch and feel. There are more things in the shop too…some scarves and also beautiful knit necklaces. Made by hand from Merino wool, mohair and even silk these pieces are not only fun but functional….as if you’d need another reason to buy one!!!
