Etsy: Most Wanted/Gift ideas


Etsy Wish List:
1. Peacock Vintage Print on Upcycled Sheet Music, AvantPrint, shop currently closed - I love this style of art, cool paintings and designs on "upcycled" sheet music or book pages.  I think it's so classy and unique.  I actually have a framed peacock print from the dollar store for my dorm room that is some what similar to this.

2. Blue Crystal Swarovski Necklace, Crystalyte925, $32 - This really doesn't need explaining. It's so beautiful and delicate and very Downton Abbey.  Love, love, love. Everything from her shop really.

3. Terrarium, $5-15 - The one that is picture disappeared before I did this post so linked is the search page with tons to view.  They often come with moss or air plants which just need to be misted once perweek but otherwise take care of themselves.  These are so cute and make great gifts for those eco-friendly loves in your life.

4. "Till I got an arrow to the knee" Skyrim themed bracelet, LunaDesigns101, $6.69 - For those of you not familiar with Skyrim, it's a medieval, sim, adventure type video game that is the 5th in a series called The Elder Scrolls. The quote featured on this is kind of an inside joke with players because it's a cliche line that a lot of the NPDs (Non Playable Characters) say. So I just liked this because it was cute and simple and amusing. Luna is a UK based seller btw but she does ship internationally at great rates.

5. Peacock Feather iPhone Cover, RetroLoveCases, $19.95 - Are you starting to notice a trend here? Haha, I just really like peacock related things this season.  I think that's because my bedding for college is Aqua so peacock themed thing are easy to pair with it.  Also because in Illinois where I used to live, you could hear them scream all the time, which was kinda cool.

6. Turtle Photograph, elgarboart, $30 - Another Aqua/colorful themed item.  After my gazillionth trip to the zoo in October, I decided I'm quite fond of sea turtles and harbor seals.  This is such a beautiful photo and love angle at which it's taken.

So that's all for this list! This might give you an idea for some gifts or at least give you a little preview of Etsy if you've never shopped there before.  There are hundreds of great items that would make perfect unique gifts so I encourage you to take a look around!

Most Wanted Items in November

want

My October favorites post, whenever I get around to writing that isn't going to consist of much.  Why? Because of the tons of shit I've bought during the month of November, none of it has been really wow-ing.  I could bring in products that aren't new during the month of October but I want my monthly favorites to be relatively new things that I've loved during the month that way I can compile a big yearly favorites video to show what products really made the cut.  Anyway, not many October favorites, so I was inspired to make a wishlist (thanks Polyvore!) of things I want to purchase during the month in the hopes that some of them will be on my November Favorites.

Sooo here's just a quick run down of the products that are pictured and why they're on this list.

Soap & Glory Body Butter, $18 - Zoella, on  youtube and a couple others talk about Soap and Glory products, particularly their sugar scrubs.  Winter makes my skin flaky and "thick" feeling if that makes any sense so I feel like a sugar scrub would be perfect not to mention relaxing.  Maybe, to cure my sugar craving, I can absorb this through my skin instead of cheating on my diet with a cupcake! No? Damn...

OPI Nail Laquer, $3 - That price is from amazon btw, for those of you that were like "wtf?". Haha. The shade pictured is Wine.  I've been searching drug stores for a great dark red and all of the ones I buy look dark red on the bottle but show up on my nails as more of a berry color, which I really don't like.  As far as non-drug store polishes, I've only ever tried China Glaze, which has gorgeous colors but chips faster than my $2 polish from walmart.  So, long store short, I'm going to try OPI. I've seen 2 october favorite videos that features OPI polishes.  I'll be taking a trip to Sally Beauty very soon to grab some of these.

Sally Hansen Salon Effects Nail Strips, $8 - These are expensive, so I've been holding off on getting these because I'm afraid they won't work or that they won't fit me right.  But I love their designs, especially the lace and zebra prints.

ELF Moisturizing Lip Tint, $3 - I bought this already! I used it twice then lost it. So maddddd! The nearest place I can get it is and hour and a half away.  I really liked it but I only used it a few times so that's why its on this list.

Rimmel London Kate Moss Lipstick,  $14 - I want this in 107.  I saw it in a drugstore lip product video on YT and thought the shade would be just what I'm looking for.  Pricey, but if its the red shade I'm looking for, it'll be worth it because these Cover Girl, Wet 'n Wild, and NYC shades are not cutting it.

ELF Studio Makeup Setting Mist, $6 - I saw this in another bloggers October favorites.  I've been a fan of The All Natural Face's hydration mist for awhile and it gives me a glow when I used mineral foundation that otherwise dulls my complexion, I want a mist that's going to actually set my makeup and keep it from melting or rubbing off throughout the day.  I always leave school looking significantly worse than I did when I got there.

Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush, $8 - I want the one in Peach something.  I had their blush when it was in the Mousse line (I don't know if they still make that or not) and I really liked it but ran out and never repurchased so I want to try this.

Revlon Just Bitten Lip stains, $9 - I'm most excited about this. I have an NYC lipstain in Rockin Ruby (or something like that) and I absolutely loveeeee it but it's almost out.  I've seen these raved about all over youtube so I'm dying to check these out. It's a lipstain plus balm which is great because after applying a lipstain I absolutely HAVE to apply a lip balm otherwise my lips feeling annoyingly dry.

That's all for this post!
My super small October favorites coming next!
