As you guys may know, my little etsy shop has been open for a few months now! I seriously do a little *squeal* of excitement every time someone buys one of my items. And I love it even more when people send me sweet messages or pictures of how they styled their purchases! I’ve been collecting these pictures over the past few months and I just wanted to share them with you guys here :)

If you’ve purchased one of my items and snapped a picture when you wore it, I’d love to feature you too!
In other news, I’m going to an NYC Blogger Swap tonight and I’m super excited! I can’t wait to see some of my NYC blogger friends there, like Alex and Jamillah, and of course, get my swap on! :)
![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?
[P.S. This is an old photo that includes a HarperCollins UK title, but please note that I support the HarperCollins Union.]

I adore my snood – and get a ridiculous amount of compliments on it!

Yay, that makes me so very happy! :)
Ooh, I adore Courtney’s snoody thing, too! I wear my headband all the time. Love it so.
Yay! Also, we totally still need to meet up sometime when you’re in the city again! :)
Hi there-I am definitely going to check out your Etsy store…super cute pics of your models here!
Thank you Naina and thanks for taking a look at my store! :)
I totally wish there were swaps in CT! Not fair.
Love the cowl you made for courtney, it’s so pretty!
Thanks Lydia! You should totally come for one of the ones in NYC some time! Alex and I will try to give you plenty of advance notice :)
I love the legwarmers!
Thanks Emily! (ooo, and thanks for sharing the name of the tea shop! :)
Wow Great snood :) Might need to check out your etsy shop :) I would love to have a blogger meet up here :)
Thanks so much Kat! Oh blogger meet-ups are so fun- you should definitely go to one if you have the opportunity! :D
Ooohh…what is a blogger swap?
At this particular swap, we got together and swapped new or gently used clothes, unopened beauty products, and accessories we didn’t want anymore! Great way to give those clothes you don’t wear anymore or never wore a new home, and it was really fun to meet other bloggers in the area :)
Those leg warmers looks interesting! That’s definitely what my teen sister would love to wear.
Thank you Aaron! :)
I would really wanna go to your shop! I think your items are really great. Keep it up! ;-)
Thank you so much and thank you for all of your sweet comments! :)
