Review: Keep Calm and Graduate
I received the Keep Calm and Graduate tshirt from Weezie's Kitchen and Sewing Room for review. This shirt is definitely a winner!!! You are guarenteed many complements whenever you wear this shirt out. The shirt is 100% cotton but is true to size to if you usually wear a size small then buy a size small. You can purchase either a red or black version of the shirt for only $18. The shirt is very comfortable to wear and is the perfect shirt to wear whenever you don't feel like dressing up! I highly recommend this shirt. It is definitely a great buy!! So be sure to check out Weezie's Kitchen and Sewing Room.

Interview: Alaina @ Feeling Kawaii
Hey guys! I got to conduct an interview with Alaina, owner of the store Feeling Kawaii. Check out what she had to say :)
1. When and why did you start making your jewelry?
Well, I have a heart condition that disables me to have a regular job. All of the other teens my age are going out into the world and getting jobs. And since my condition won't allow me I started crafting and selling what I had made. I started making my creations in December of 2011 and when I first started I only did polymer clay pieces. In march of 2012 I started resin which is what I make my mustaches out of.
2. How long has your shop been open?
Feeling kawaii has been open for about three or four months now but before that I had a small shop on etsy. It was getting expensive though so I decided to close it and create the shop on storenvy.
3. What's your inspiration?
My inspiration is probably Sarah tacks. Otherwise known as socraftastic on YouTube and also all of my followers on YouTube. They support me so much in what I do and I couldn't be any more thankful to have them.
4. What's your favorite store?
Ok so the last question was the hardest for me. Lol. I have two favorite stores. The first one would have to be the sanrio store. I've loved hello kitty and other sanrio characters ever since I was about three years old. (I'm 16 now) the other store that I am in LOVE with is hot topic. I love their punk rock style.
Thanks some much for conducting this interview with me!

Interview: Lorina @ Creative Balorina
I has the pleasure interviewing Lorina, the owner of the store Creative Balorina (one of my favorites!) which sells cases, bags, and jewelry.
- When and why did you start making your products?
If I remember correctly it was in 9th grade that I started making friendship bracelets and selling them to peers and friends. Over time and many hobbies later I opened a blog as a creative outlet and a few years after that I extended it to have a shop as well. This is at creativebalorina.com
- When did you how long has your Etsy shop been open?
I opened my Etsy shop in 2009 just to see what it was. I had very few things in it and I didn't pay much attention to it until January of this year. 2012 is when I officially launched my business with the Reversible Backpack line.
- What's your inspiration?
My inspirations are taken from everywhere, from color combinations, textures, patterns, shapes, anything! Everytime I see a bag or anything, I inspect how it looks and how it's put together, I try to break it down to the original thought process and I find myself daydreaming of different ways it could be done.
- Which celeb would you most like to see wearing your products?
Honestly I have never been one to know about celebrities but the person that would love my products is someone who likes details, creativity, and someone who wants unique items.
- What's your favorite store?
If I had to pick only one, I would say Fossil. I love their handbags and accessories and they are made with high quality to last you a lifetime.
- Who is your style icon?
I don't have a specific style icon but right now my style is a mix of country chic and vintage.
Thanks so much for taking the time to chat with me! Your store is really amazing :)

Review: Novel-T
Review: Banzai Chicks
I love the cute asian look of this tshirt!! I love all the contrasting colors: the pink, white, and black. This shirt looks like a really authentic asian shirt with a spalsh of cuteness :) This is definitely one of my favorite shirts. I also loved the matching necklace. I love the bronze metal chain it comes on and I also love that instead of a clasp it uses a insert through the whole closing device. The necklace goes great with the shirt. If you ever buy one you should def buy the matching necklace or tshirt. I love how the store has the chibi kid form of the character on some products, but on other products they have the same character in adult form. I think it's so cute and creative. This is a great shop and you should definitely visit.Here are some other cute things from Banzai Chicks:
Review: Mary Making Things
First off I love the tattered look! I love also how to put the gems under the tears of the hat I think it looks cute! I also really love the applique lettering and how the colors provide a nice contrast with the pink. I also love how she added the gems on the lettering as well. The hat I would say is most likely a one size fits all and it even has an adjuster on the back. I love the pink!! Overall, I really love the hat. The look is cute and I love that it has Senior 2013 on it! :P Mary Making Things also sells scarfs, fabric flowers, headbands, and jewelry along with hats. Here are some other products from the shop:
Feature & Interview {Sophie Thomson Designs}
Hey! Today I will be featuring the Etsy shop Sophie Thomson Designs and I will also be interviewing the owner behind the shop, Sophie.
Sophie Thomson Designs is an Etsy shop run from the UK that sells handmade polymer clay jewelry. The store sells necklaces, earrings, brooches, bracelets, and hair accessories. The products sold there are very pretty and ornate. You would where this jewelry at dressy events. I love it! Here are some products from the store:
I had the opportunity of talking with Sophie from Sophie Thomson Designs.
1. When and why did you start making jewelry?
I've been making jewelry as long as I can remember, it's just something that I've always liked to do. When I was younger I would make jewelry out of glass beads and wire, or thread. I also used to play with Fimo and used it to make little figures and toys, but it's only recently that I've actually used polymer clay to make jewelry.
My Etsy shop has only been open for about a month, so I'm still very new. I signed up to Etsy in February but only actually listed some items in March. I've had some interest so far, which is very good, I think.
3. What's your inspiration?
I honestly don't know what my inspiration is! I just like making pretty things. I guess I do make traditionally very feminine things, but I can't think of a single source of inspiration :)
4. Which celeb would you most like to see wearing your jewelry?
I would love it if any celebrity wore my jewelry! I guess my jewelry might appeal to Lady Gaga a few years ago, but I'd love it if someone like Helena Bonham Carter wore one of my necklaces.
(I guess this is for Etsy shops?) I recently found a store that sells almost exclusively tiny knitted owls. I just loved it. I also found one where a guy made made-to-measure vintage style gowns, sometimes out of vintage fabric. They were so beautifully made, I'd have bought one immediately if funds hadn't been an issue!
6. Who is your style icon?
I don't really know if I have a style icon, but I do like the sort of clothes that people like Keira Knightly and Carey Mulligan wear. Just simple and elegant - although I don't actually dress like that!
Thanks again for this! It was a lot of fun :)

Interview w/Mickey at Crude Co.
Hi! I had the pleasure of chatting with Mickey, the owner of the Etsy shop Crude Co.!
1. When and why did you start making accessories?
1996 was my first art fair with my Crude Co. jewelry and ornament. I sold every piece I had made and went home that evening to make more for the next day.
2. When did you how long has your Etsy shop been open?
A friend introduced me to etsy in 2008, she said, "No one sales jewelry and ornament like you." I listed three handmade recycled leather pouches. And three minutes later they sold. I was hooked.
3. What's your inspiration?
Crude Co. jewelry and ornament is about your spirit not your wealth. I make items for people in my economical cash base. Affordable items that reflect your energy and spirit.
4. Which celeb would you most like to see wearing your products?
celeb? NONE. Celeb's have a cash flow that I can not imagine and most often they don't have the same appreciation for handmade items or the crafter/artisan who makes those items.
5. What's your favorite store?
6. Who is your style icon?
OH, dear.......I'm so far from worrying or supporting a style at my age. I'm a very frugal person. I have been a single divorced Mother for more than 24 years. My children and those children I care for here in my home they come first.
Thank you,
Mickey
aka
Crude Co.
Thanks for conducting this interview with me! I loved all of your answers :)
Review & Interview {The Little Bunny Shop}
I absolutely loved this bracelet. As you now by now I am in love with neon colors especially the blue and green combination. I loved that this bracelet is really unique being made out of fabric instead of a medal charm bracelet. Speaking of charms, I also loved the charms that hang off of fabric it gives it a nice cute look. The black and white plaid really brings the whole bracelet together by creating great contrast! I really loved this bracelet!!! If you want one for yourself you can buy one here. She also has them in pink, green, and black plaid!Here are some other cute things you can find in The Little Bunny Shop:
Now for the interview :) I got to chat with Lizeth, the owner of The Little Bunny Shop.
1. When and why did you start making jewelry?
At the beginning of this year. I saw some tutorial about bow bracelets, and i thought it was so cute!! I wanted to make them and sell them around my little town since Bow bracelets were nonexistent here. So I did and then i started looking for more ideas, more materials and things i could make, i havent stopped.
2. When did you how long has your Etsy shop been open?
It's been there since April 10th, so not that long ago! I'm still learning about it and listing more items.
3. What's your inspiration?
Just anything colorful that catches my eye, prints, patterns. I LOVED that for this summer all neons and pastels are on trend. It's so fun to play with colors to make a fun piece to wear.
4. Which celeb would you most like to see wearing your jewelry?
Oh, I really havent thought about it! I have been working so much to just getting my stuff out there for normal people to see that havent even thought about any celebrity seeing them or even wearing them. But I guess just anyone! haha, i'd be honored.
5. What's your favorite store?
Ooooh! I like forever21, has all the parents and crazy things I like!
6. Who is your style icon?
I like Katy Perry's style alot ! So fun!
Thanks so much for chatting with me and letting me review on of your products! I love Katy Perry's style too because it is so unique. And I also love Forever 21 :)

Pirates or Ninjas? Review of J2Shirts
I got the courtesy of working with and reviewing J2Shirts! I was sent the Color Pirates vs. Ninja Hoodie for review so that's what I'll be talking about today :) I love everything about this sweatshirt. It's nice and thick for those freezing cold winter days. It is also very comfy! I absolutely love the design as well. I have had the pirate vs. ninja debate for a while now and I have to say that I am for ninjas all the way! :) The shop owner is great and really nice. She provides amazing customer service! J2Shirts is a great store with great funny and witty products and you should definitely go visit them. Check out my shots of the hoodie below.
Here are some other products that are offered in the store that are my personal favorites!
