End of 2010, Black Velvet Ruffle Scarf by Bonzie - SOLD



This ruffled scarf by Bonzie is made of black crushed velvet, and closes with a leatherette piece and antique-style silver button. Note that this is pretty much the only way it can be worn (looped around neck, with long end hanging down).

THIS ITEM HAS SOLD.

End of 2010, Gold Shimmer Wrap by Bonzie - SOLD



I never thought I'd see the day where I parted with any of my vast collection of pieces by Bonzie, but as I haven't worn these yet, they deserve a better home. This gorgeous lightweight Victorian-inspired ruffled wrap is made of a crinkled fabric that has a gold shimmer with a matching lace accent. The second photo, taken by me, shows the matching ties which allow you to close it by tying it at the centre of your back. This piece would be perfect to layer over your favorite holiday outfit (or wedding dress).

THIS ITEM HAS SOLD.

End of 2010, Canvas Carapace by hier apparel - SOLD



This gorgeous pull-on elvish/organic piece by Etsyian hier apparel is one of two in existence. It is made of a charcoal grey canvas and a steel blue canvas shaped around your throat and neck, and features cap sleeves and raw edges. It's cropped just over your bust, arching down along your ribcage to underneath your arms. There is also a handmade terracotta- and green-coloured clay pendant sewn on (placed over the Vishuddha Chakra) that could be removed if wanted. This could definitely be a great piece for a costume, but could also be beautifully styled for everyday wear if you have the imagination. It was custom made to my measurements, so please inquire if further information is needed.

THIS ITEM HAS SOLD.

End of 2010, Hand-dyed Silk Scarf by Clarissa - SOLD



This 100% silk scarf by Etsyian Clarissa is 74 inches long and 19 inches wide. It has great depth to it because of the hand dyeing process, resulting in various shades of brownish grey (the second photo, taken by me, shows the colour more accurately). This scarf is super light, transparent, and a bit stiff, and features Clarissa's signature blank 'label'. I completely love it, but like a bit more weight in my scarves. 

THIS ITEM HAS SOLD.

End of 2010, Woven Moss Yellow/Green Wrap by Bonzie - SOLD



The second ruffled Victorian-style wrap I'm listing here by Etsyian Bonzie is made of this fantastic vintage-style yellow/green woven material. The second photo, taken by me, shows the colour more accurately, as well as the 1-inch wide yellow satin ribbon used for closure.

THIS ITEM HAS SOLD.

End of 2010, Ruched cotton top by L. Weatherread - SOLD




This gorgeous hand-dyed long-sleeved crop top/jacket by former Etsyian L. Weatherread features ruches/pleats on the sleeves, and decorative overstitching. It can be closed with one or both of the wooden buttons. The cotton is lightweight and non-stretch, and there is no lining. I really love this piece, but wasn't a fan of the thin burgundy lace used. Please note that the natural dying process has left small random coloured spots on this piece (ie. they are not stains). This was custom made to my measurements, so please ask if you need more info. Styled in the last photo with the Alexander McQueen jacket and Clarissa scarf, also listed today.

THIS ITEM HAS SOLD.

End of 2010, Knit Black Net Dress by iLE AiYE - SOLD




I was super excited about getting this little black knit dress from Etsyian iLE AiYE, but it didn't work for me when I got it. Really, I'm just being lazy in not wanting to figure out a way to layer this properly, hence the listing. Nonetheless, as you can see from my photos, the neckline on the dress listed here is quite low, making it more of a jumper or high-waisted skirt with straps. If you're deft with knitting needles, you could probably make this more modest, though it has to be layered over something anyway. The racerback is my favorite part of this piece. This is knit from a thicker eco/fair trade cotton, and a thin slubby acrylic yarn.

THIS ITEM HAS SOLD.

End of 2010, Grey Drape Top by Desira Pesta - SOLD



This cotton jersey top by Etsyian Desira Pesta features a hand-printed original screenprint by architect Rob Daurio. This top has a few sewing imperfections which don't affect the over all draped look, but do affect the price here. Please note that the actual top listed has a waistband not featured in the first photo. The top is styled over the iLE AiYE knit dress also listed today.

THIS ITEM HAS SOLD.

End of 2010, Draped Jersey Top by Supayana - SOLD



I bought this super duper soft jersey cardigan top from Etsyian Supayana because I had bought my sister one in another colour and loved it so much. I haven't been able to fit this terracotta colour into my styling palette, however, so it's being listed here. The inseam of the sleeve is 20", and will fit many sizes.

THIS ITEM HAS SOLD.

End of 2010, Top by Study NY - SOLD




This lightweight striped top by Study NY (which was previously blogged about here) is very lovely, but I couldn't warm up to the elasticated hem (and don't want to surgically remove it). Please note what the fabric really looks like in my close up of the cool twirled fan sleeve detail and pocket. Fits small-medium with its boxy cut.

THIS ITEM HAS SOLD.
