Love the native influence – lots of details in these clothes and jewlery.
these are great! but just an fyi (if its something you like to be aware of) Free People clothing is MADE IN CHINA!! I was so devastated when I found out. Its amazing what we can assume from a name :-/ What false advertising.
On a positive note…Your blog is AWESOME :) I get a lot of inspiration from it!
hey robin! EXACTLY! i think my posts this week might have been a little confusing, lol. that’s why i give ‘indie alternatives’ so that we don’t have to purchase from these big companies! :P
oh I know you weren’t promoting Free People or anything, I just feel the need to tell anyone and everyone about that specific company because the name is SO FALSE! It drives me nuts lol. I love inspiration from any source–in fact I much prefer making or upcycling something awesome and one of a kind, which was inspired by overpriced, ethically poor companies :)
Keep on doing what you’re doing, I come back everyday!
hey robin! yes, i totally agree! keep on spreading the news- false publicity is hurting our culture badly, and the more we can bring awareness to these issues the better! :)
