Coty Lee On Etsy

Thursday, March 4th, 2010 Posted in Clothing | No 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

First…my apologies…I know, I know…it’s been too long!  My summer life is different than most!  Just as you are all settling in for a lovely time of sunbathing and vacations, I am at my busiest working for a summer day camp in the area!  So…there isn’t much time, but as it starts to wind down, my posts will wind back up!  I promise…I can’t stay away too long!

I was recently on the hunt for something summery and fabulous and turquoise to wear with my crisp white t-shirts and I came across this beautiful turquoise necklace on Etsy made by Alona Lahav Handmade Design!  Her pieces are wonderfully crafted little works of art to hang from your neck, your ears or to adorn your fingers with!  There are also magnets and other little home decor trinkets!  They make great gifts and I am finding it’s hard to stay away from her shop once you own your first piece!

Purpose Design

Monday, November 10th, 2008 Posted in Food, For The Home | No Comments »

Today’s find comes from Seeking Designers and is brought to you by the letter S…for Spices!  I absolutely LOVE this company spicy ideas.  We all know and sometimes loathe those ugly and also cumbersome spice racks.  And anyone who has tried to clean the dust off of them knows…it’s NOT FUN!  So not fun, that I had mine covered by another Etsyian…but I digress.  My point is, these spice racks and sets from Purpose Design made me giggle with glee!  They are clean and fun and so functional.  Also probably the perfect gift for a hourse warming party this year…or a hostess gift for someone you know loves to cook.  I also think the idea of the tea sets and specific spice sets like Mexican or French are equally exciting!  If you are a cook, or like to dabble or you know someone who is, you’re gonna wanna pass this one on!

“Spicelab Large Magnetic Spice Rack” $55

“Medium Chai Tea Kit” $22

“Small Mexican Spice Kit” $15
