Etsy Fashion Shoot
Nearly thirty four million people have purchased items from Etsy in the past five years. Crazy, right? For those of you who don’t know what Etsy is, it’s an online store where people from all over the world hand make and sell things such as jewelry, pillows, paintings, soap, clothes, and more. The first time I used Etsy was to purchase a dress for a Jane Austen costume—you’ll see that repurposed as a dress by my friend Isabella E. in this blog post. I decided to try Etsy again to see what the quality of the actual everyday clothes might be. I found a wool poncho that I thought looked cute as well as a skirt that we transformed into a strapless dress for summer. I also convinced my friends Isabella E. and Rose T. to model my finds! We ended up loving the Etsy clothes. Check out the photos below to judge for yourself!
