As part of my shift into showing off more men’s fashions, I’d like to showcase a fashion that I’ve always loved.  If we were honest, there is a practical side to suspenders/braces, as belts just don’t seem to hold up pants like a pair of suspenders will.  On top of that, its a great way to show off your style.  If you’d like more information about the difference between the two, as well as some guidelines on how and when to wear what, check out The Style Blogger’s Tip on just this subject.

Below is a gallery of braces and suspenders I’ve gathered from around Etsy.  Simple, loud, classic, vintage and one of a kind, how do you style your self?

We’re still in the middle of the Wedding Season, so I stopped by Sheila Bobeldijk’s shop, Sibo Designs to check out what they had to offer brides.  Lovely hair pieces, veils and even gloves are all hand made by her, for you.   I’ll let her explain it better:

When I got married I tried so hard to find the perfect hair piece here in my own country. It just wasn’t there. This is what inspired me to make hair pieces available for brides all over the world! Currently my shop is growing and I am only using the finest quality of materials to create my pieces. I try to be unique and one of a kind with my designs. I hope you will enjoy visiting my shop!

Thank you so much for visiting! 🙂

So now, how about we take a look at their designs?

I just have to say… The photos are some of my favorite so far. I adore the poses and how well they showcase the pieces.

Summer is upon us, at least in name, and that means its time to pull out our swimsuits and hit the beaches, pools and take the day off.  Below are some options from etsy that cover women’s fashion.  We’ll be focusing on men’s in a few weeks.

And just remember….

Eco Friendly Clothing is a new trend, that’s not exactly a new idea.  Below you’ll find Sandmaiden’s Shop Announcement and some images showcasing their wonderful clothing.  Be sure to check out their Etsy Shop.  ^^

knitwear in wool, organic cotton and other natural fibers. Custom sewn in the size and color of your choice. Made with true love and true labor in Seattle.

Sandmaiden was created for women like me, women who appreciate something beautiful and comfortable to put on as a means of transporting themselves from the business of the day into a place of joy and rest. I believe that garments made from natural fibers ground us more intimately to our selves and our environment, providing more comfort and beauty than synthetic materials. The fabrics in the Sandmaiden collection are 90% natural with about 10% modern, functional, fashion forward content like lycra or and soft wood pulp based fibers.
