I would kill for this! I’m lacking brown footwear and these would be the perfect pair to start with. Yes but $405 for shoes is something i have yet to learn how to do.
And this pair is just lovely to look at. Both pairs of sandals are by LD Tuttle, available at Creatures of Comfort.
Today’s Etsy find has left me stumped. I’m easily surprised but stumped, not often. Well IMOTIME from San Diego, is one amazing fella who makes a clock out of anything. Let’s go, i’m gonna stump you too.
First there’s the Scrabble clock,
and how about a take-out clock, i love take-out boxes
then ooo, a bag clock!
and i love this weighing maching clock cos it’s secretly a clock
how about a vintage radio clock
and a vintage rotary phone clock
so it might seem perfectly normal to have a tin of tea clock
aha! how about a clock on your toilet seat cover!
or on a connect four game
a viking helmet?
and lastly, my favourite one, Mr Potato Head
So this led to some Googling and seems like it’s relatively do-able to make my own clock out of anything and everything. One for the DIY books.
Etsy and eBay are my favourite places to be online so no surprises that i bring you another interesting find from Etsy.
Replicca sells handmade garments in their own original designs and what i love about their pieces is the familiarity of vintage wear, in the fabrics used and some of the silhouettes.

I’ve been seeing alot of vintage ‘inspired’ clothes and most of them are disappointing. I reckon using a floral fabric does not equate to it being a vintage dress. What i love about vintage wear is the cut and curves of it. Well of cos alot of times, the dresses i get off eBay don’t fit me like second skin but after simple alterations, it hugs my body where it should. And this is what i find is lacking in alot of clothing these days. This one entry on decades and body types by the lovely Rhiannon of Liebemarlene Vintage taught me a little more on the different eras of vintage wear. I still get confused but i guess little by little, i’d get the hang of it.
Some nice fabric that caught my eye. I should really get down to learning how to sew at least something.
I thought these were really cute, from Indie Cult Vintage. I’ve bought two pairs of shoes online, one fit and the other was a flop. Luckily i managed to sell that pair away. So i kinda restrain myself from buying shoes online (for now at least) before i get better at judging whether it’d fit me.
