Quick Pick: Classic Dress Shirt / Tunic in Linen

Etsy Shop isabelamyo - Designer Isabel Amyo (Bordeaux, France)

Am in love with this "My Garden" dress shirt / tunic! So simple and elegant at the same time. I love the neckline and (especially!!) the sleeves - both remind me of medieval clothing. Available in several colors - beautiful and classic-looking in each one!

Price: $135.00 + $13.00 s&h
Details: Handmade to order - can shorten to whatever length you desire - ready to ship in 10 business days



Another top of hers that I love:

Item Find: Adorable Craft and Vendor Apron

I stumbled across this item in my Activity Feed - a function which I have become obsessed with and is so great for discovering new finds through friends or like-minded shoppers. It's listed as a "Crafty/Vendor/Sewing Apron with Handmade Heart" and is so cute, I love it! I was trying desperately to come up with a reason that I need this, given that it's only $12.00 + $1.75 for shipping!!

The item is sold in the Etsy Shop vasini, which is run by a fashion designer in Charlotte, North Carolina and seems to sell mostly wedding guest clothing items, with a focus on shrugs and wraps. In her profile she writes that she loves to sew and particularly likes working with hand-spun fabrics like raw silk, which is evident from looking at her shop, where most of the photos have that nice shiny silk look to them.

If you have a wedding or nice event coming up, I would definitely recommend checking out her shop ASAP, since all domestic orders placed through March 12 will get free shipping!

Items: silk shrugs and wraps, some additional accessories
