Storenvy Sundays

So, as my readers know, I already do "Etsy Finds Fridays" where I post interesting things I come across that week on Etsy. However, Storenvy has also become a favorite website of mine for me to sell on. It is actually the website that I host my new website on. www.fabricillusion.com

Anyways, it's a smaller community and I would like to add this to my weekly posts'. Let's get started!

paperkitty.storenvy.com

Paper kitty provides stickers and pinback buttons of a large variety, including tv shows, movies, fun quotes, food, tumblr shenanigans, etc! Best of all, they are all really affordable!

(pictures belong to their website)

chawrrylove.storenvy.com

Chawrry Love is a store that carries cute boho jewelry such as earrings, necklaces, ear cuffs, etc. Almost everything is under $20!

gisele.storenvy.com

I've been drooling over almost everything in this store since I found it. Their clothes are very unique with a vintage boho twist.

Check back weekly for more finds! Or share with me your favorite shops on Storenvy. :]

Etsy Finds Fridays - Boho Themed

I always find it so hard scrolling through Etsy to pick only 10 items to list on my weekly finds. So this week I'm trying something new....going with a theme!

Boho fashion is very "in" right now and it's always been something I follow due to my mom being very "boho".

1. Vintage Moccassins - $19 +shipping

First on my list, are these vintage moccasins! I love moccasins because they go with almost anything.

2. Black Doc Martins - $50 +shipping

Speaking of shoes, how can you go wrong with Doc Martins. These aren't only "boho", but they can fit any fashion group. They go with literally anything. Prom dress, jeans, mini skirts, etc!

3. Aztec Boho Tote Bag - $10 +shipping

I think it's important for bags to be flexible in matching with many outfits. Who wants a bag that only goes with one outfit?

4. Vintage Boho Turquoise Necklace - $15 +shipping

Jewelry is a huge part of the boho fashion sense. This necklace embraces it, without being overly chunky or tacky.

5. Boho Tunic - $13 +shipping

I love oversized shirts like this because you can wear them in so many ways.

6. Boho Yoga Pants - $40 +shipping

These pants are great, and not just for yoga. They feature a fun pattern so you can wear a plain shirt without looking like a plain jane.

7. Quartz Necklace - $36 +shipping

This necklace is simple and neutral in color but will add flair to any outfit!

8. Boho striped poncho - $23 +shipping

The cold season is coming and this poncho cape is perfect for any outfit! Even if it covers up the outfit you so tediously planned, it won't look boring or clumpy.

9. Black Floral Kimono - $65 +shipping

Kimonos are very hip right now and they transform an otherwise boring or simple outfit into something more profound and foreign.

10. White sheer kimono - $34 +shipping

Another, cheaper option for kimono seekers!

Remember, send in your favorite shops or items that you find on Etsy for a feature!

New Website!

I've been considering transferring my business to it's own website for quite some time. But I always came up with excuses: it's not successful enough, i'm too lazy, it costs' money, etc.

Finally, this past month I re-considered the benefits of having my own website. For one, it was much easier to tell people "Fabric Illusion.com" as opposed to "fabric illusion . etsy . com" or whatever host website I was currently using. That was the second issue. I transferred hosts' many times. From storenvy to etsy, to bigcartel. With my own URL I can change whatever host I want without changing the URL. And lastly, I discovered that with the right host, it's not that expensive! I'm paying barely $10 a year.

So now, It's finalized! Check out my new website. I'm still occasionally tweaking things. For now, I enjoy the sleek, simplicity of the theme I have chosen.

Feedback and thoughts are always appreciated!

Wishlist Wednesday

This week my place of choice was Storenvy. You find a lot of unique items over there. So here's what I found!

I love this dress, and the best part of it, is the huge scooped neck on the back (not pictured, obviously).

Find this dress HERE!

Need I say more? I love things that go to charities.

Get this shirt HERE!

The description says pinup girl, but the model doesn't look very pinup-y so it's hard for me to picture it that way. However, I still love it! Pinstripes are always in style...for me.

Get it HERE!

This dress is too cute. So light and summery looking!

Get it HERE!

I probably wouldn't ever wear this dress, but that doesn't cease my love for it!

Find it HERE!

I'm absolutely in love with this cupcake apron!!

Find it HERE!

Adventure Wars Tshirt. So clever! Combining two of my favorite things haha.

Find it HERE!

You have no idea how in love with this I am. Seriously, I would probably wear it everywhere, regardless of my location (Hawai'i).

Find this sweetness HERE!

This panda sweater/dress is so cute! I want to get it for my friend who is nicknamed panda. It suits her style also!

Find it HERE!

The art is so cute, I can't handle! I don't wear tshirts too much, but I think I would sport this one!

Find it HERE!

That's all for this week. Do you guys have any online shops to recommend? Just so you guys know, I rarely ever buy anything, as I'm on a strict budget, but I enjoy doing these wishlists' for future reference!
