ETSY SPOTLIGHT: Brown Bag Vintage

I think my new favorite feature that Etsy has added, are their "circles." If you are not familiar with what that is, it is basically a way to follow your favorite shops and see what their favorites are. That is how I stumbled upon Brown Bag Vintage, and I am so happy I did. There are so many goodies all in one spot, I can't even list them all because it would literally be pages & pages! You should go see for yourself! It reminds me of Urban Outfitters- but less expensive and a lot more vintage pieces, not recreated styles!

Here are some of my favorites!

SALE ... rust plaid pencil skirt (xs-s)
Plaid Skirt

wooden platform clogs (us 8 / us 39.5)
Wooden Clogs

polka dot tie neck blouse (s/m)
Polka Dot Neck Tie Blouse

acid wash denim shorts (s/m)

tribal crop top (s/m)

belted safari dress (l/xl)

I think you should definitely add this shop to your favorites! You will not be disappointed!
