1) Dressing Your Relationship Status (for Valentine’s Day)
I’m a habitual email deleter, but I kept this one in my inbox because it made me laugh. Intermix has you covered for every Valentine’s Day status - newly single? waiting on an engagement ring? still honeymooning?
2) NYU Sloth Thrift Store
A handful of brave environmentalist/entrepreneurs from NYU are looking to get funding to start an NYU thrift store to “slow consumption” and swap last year’s clothes with others for a great price! All they need are “Likes” on their Facebook page to receive proper funding from NYU. C’mon guys - it’s easy and free!!
3) LACED Headbands
Larissa of LACED Headbands on Etsy contacted me to check out her shop - and it’s adorable! Certainly something for future brides to check out for hair/belt accessories at reasonable prices!
Tis’ the season to give presents to your closest friends and family, and I know a great present to gift every female in your social circle. Cushy Company was created over a year ago by my close friend Kayla who has a knack for knitting. I happen to own four of her super warm scarves that I rotate throughout the week.
Receive 10% off by using promo code DEC11 on all of her knitwear! Also, make sure to inquire about custom-made scarves and blankets!!
One of the biggest reasons why I’m a fan of Etsy is for the plethora of Vintage Shops. It’s like bringing the flea market to your laptop, only you didn’t have to spend hours sifting through tables of accessories or racks of aging dresses.
«<Like this dress here, it’s absolutely gorgeous, fitted and one of a kind!
To narrow down the many vintage offerings on Etsy, I bring you my top 3 favorite vintage shops:
#1 Nemres Shop: supple leather satchels, 70’s winter coats & beautiful dresses.
#2 Carbon Copy: Chunky knit sweaters, flashy prints & a wide selection of tops.
#3 Redlipsickthreads: Romantic dresses, covet-able accessories & patterned sweaters.

I’ve always admired my good friend Judah’s style as his wardrobe has evolved from highschool to college. Since my boyfriend admittedly dismisses ANYTHING fashionable, Judah has become a great outlet to getting feedback about guys clothes.
I know I’m not an expert on men’s clothing, but I do happen to flip through GQ often. I love how he brought back sandblasted denim, but in a skinny cut, dressing them up with a gray blazer. Judah’s vintage leather oxfords compliment just about anything he wears… you can find your own in this great Etsy shop: Timeless Vintage Shoes.
Oh and ladies… he’s single.
