Having just celebrated by 25th birthday on January 9th I noticed something peculiar. People always ask "what do you want for your birthday". I personally find that questions hard to answer. There are things that I would purchase for myself, but would never expect anyone else to buy for me. I always feel bad asking for something unless I actually need it. Just for fun I decided to take a look around on Etsy and pick out what I would buy for myself if I could buy all of my own Birthday presents. I must say, I had a very good time and hope to someday rationalize purchases from at least a few of these talented artists!
Grey Jacket:
This beautiful jacket was created by a very talented Etsian COTYLEE. This jacket looks both stunning and warm, which is something I look for contending with some very unpredictable Canadian weather! This seller's store is filled with beautiful treasures that I'm sure would suite any gals style!
Ring:
The sleek and simple design of this ring by ROBANDLEAN is sure to make it an instant classic. This piece is classy and clean and would make a beautiful addition to any outfit.
Top:
One of my favorite items that I've ever had the pleasure of finding on Etsy, this top by Lirola is completely adorable. To me it perfectly combines high fashion & comfort. A perfect top to wear to the office or out for a night on the town. It is beautiful in every color and pattern it is available in.
Purse:
An accessory that I can easily picture me (or Audrey Hepburn) strolling down the street with is this gorgeous bag by CrazyBoy. It puts a wonderful spin on a classic style. The size is functional without being too large.
Passport/Travel Case:
I've been eyeing up a couple of different travel document holders on Etsy but this one designed by DownStairsDesigns stands out among the rest. It had plenty of room for all of your required documents. I especially love how the patterned fabric is broken up with a beautiful textured solid. A traveling must have!
Art Print:
This art print by MATTEARTS is right up my alley! The style reminds me of one of my favorite Directors Wes Andreson's style of which I am a huge fan. This piece is so much fun, as is the title "Alfred was obviously under-dressed for his induction into the Adventurers Hall of Fame". I would be proud to hang this above my mantel.
Painted High Heels:
These hand painted high heels by NoraKaren are a fabulous piece of wearable art. These would look amazing with a simple black ensemble. All of this artists work is amazing. Well worth taking a look at.
With Monica's Birthday in just a few weeks, I can't wait to see what is on her wish list!
