Five Fabulous Etsy Shops for Fashionable Finds

From Up-cycled Bags to Vintage Frocks

Sarah Townsend
I love etsy because it is a great site with a huge selection of vintage and handmade items from various sources. Sellers set up online shops that show off their products. This is a list of my favorite shops with the best, most fashion forward designs.

Kcoline- $$$

The clothing is all designed by Caroline Flach and it is all unique. She offers returns and international shipping as well. This shop is a little expensive but it offers top quality and service. Kcoline offers wedding dresses, evening wear, and causal garments. The dresses in the shop at the moment are cute and flirty with bows or flowers. You can even have your look customized for an additional fee.

Mydearthing-$$

This is a great shop because it is all organic and elegant. Most of the designers are very simple but everything is very tailored and chic. I would wear anything from this shop because it all looks very comfortable as well. My favorite piece is called Opening Dress and it comes in three colors. It is about $150 but all of the garments are top quality and made for everyday wear. Most pieces come in warm neutral colors.

Pinguim- $$

This shop is one of my favorite vintage stores on Etsy. Pinguim offers a large variety of items from vintage home decor to 1960's jewelry. This shop is the epitome of bohemian and I have my eye on a beaded amulet charm already. Everything is this shop is unique and in good condition. For vintage finds, this place also offers reasonable prices.

Zhen U.N. leathers- $$$

Zhen U.N. leathers is all about quality leather bags. The shop is a little pricey but that is because of the materials and effort put into the products. I especially love the huge tote in togarashi red named Ton Sai. All of the products are very well made and seem to be pretty durable. This shop also offers leather strip earrings but the bags are far more chic in my opinion. Some have designs that are only for day looks but most are simple and bold, suitable for days at work and nights out.

Undone clothing- $

I love up-cycled fashion! If you don't know yet, up-cycling is when something considered trash is used to creatively make something new and of greater value. Undone is a cute little indie shop that uses a variety of surprising everyday objects to create wearable art. Film strips are now bows for packages, tape measures are now wallets and jewelry and best of all most items are relatively inexpensive. A tri-fold tape measure wallet is about $15 and looks pretty sturdy.
