With my fascination with the website of Etsy, I found this wonderful seller from the incredible place of Israel. Adva’s items caught my eye, not only because of the fabrics she uses — but the style that she sews them up. The articles of clothing can be worn as a classic piece with timeless accessories, or you can easily dress them up to be quite funky! I’m impressed with the high quality of materials she uses, and the prices are totally reasonable for anyone!
Alfie seems to like it too. :)
Adva and I have something in common and in fact some of you may not know this about me… but I too went and did Textile Studies in College, before I knew what I wanted to do with my life. I ended up going there right after I graduated High School. While it was fun to learn how to weave, knit, sculpt, print and dye — I knew I didn’t want to turn a hobby into a job. Ironically enough, I became a Graphic Designer, and I couldn’t say I would want to do anything else!
Enough about me. Check out some of my favorite pieces created by Adva at Duende74:
The “Winter” jacket. Which just so happens to be $10 off at the moment. This is definitely my favorite, by far.
and of course the Long Sleeved Tunic. Show stoppah!
She even has some dresses to choose from. If I was comfortable wearing a dress, I would have picked something out like that too!
I was lucky enough for Adva to send me a sleeveless tunic made from Italian cotton and wool. Perfect for the spring or summer, and even layering under a cute and perhaps bright cardigan during these cold winter months in Canada. I’m for sure going to wear the top, this weekend!
This is me, sporting my new shirt from her Duende74 Etsy store:
Looks great with a pair of jeans. You can easily dress it up, or down. It feels so nice on my skin, I can’t stop touching it.
Pair it with a cardigan for the cold months at work, and with a long necklace your outfit is set!
The back is pretty sleek too. Oww!
I couldn’t stop touching the top. It’s almost like a silky-cotton material. Amazing quality fabric and flattering. There is a various amount of colors to choose from when you’re picking out your tops, too.
Help an Etsy seller out, and perhaps this will inspire you to go and buy some really great pieces from her. Adva is such a sweetheart, really and I love her super cool name: Adva. She has super fast shipping, in fact I had my postal code wrong and wrote her a week later. Adva’s response was almost immediate. Then, that afternoon I received my package in the mail at work! Can you believe it only took 9 business days from far-away Israel, with the wrong postal code? Unreal. Please, definitely check out her shop if you’re looking for some fresh new pieces in your wardrobe!
Have a fantastic day guys!
