10 Etsy Accessories I'm Digging

Lately, I've been obsessed with searching Etsy for fabulous accessories. Hats, bags, pins, scarves, etc. Here are ten of my favorites:

1. Charcoal Gray Jersey Scarf with Jumbo Poppy Blossom Brooch
I've recently discovered the benefit of scarves. I never considered them before because I really did not think that I could pull them off, but seriously. The warm and cozy feeling around my neck far outweighs how I may look in one. I never realized how much warmth a scarf can add! Right now I'm sporting my purple fleece (outside) scarf that I received from Christmas. I don't own any "fashion" scarves, but this one tops my list.

2. Chartreuse Green Neck Warmer with Upcycled Magenta Rosette
Speaking of warm necks, this one would definitely keep mine warm. Love the color. Love the rosette. Love the grey fleece lining.

3. Jumbo Poppy Blossom Brooch in Ivory
Of course I have to add this awesome brooch. I've never worn a brooch like this before, nor do I know if I would ever wear it, but I still think it's awesome.

4. Vintage 1960s Black Velour Cloche Hat
Much like scarves, I have never been a hat person. I just don't think that hats look good on me. However, last week I randomly tried on a black cloche hat, and was told that it actually didn't look that bad on me. (It was an attempt at a compliment that I will totally accept). And I LOVE this hat! Too bad it has already sold out!

5.  Vintage Pink Cloche Hat
Another adorable cloche hat. These hats remind me of my grandmother, although I'm not really sure that she ever wore one. It may just be that they give me the same refined and classy vibe I always picked up from her.

6. Oh-So-Pretty Scattered Auburn Leaves Frame Bag
I am a sucker for a cute bag. This one is definitely cute.

7. White and Black Purse with Silk Rosettes
Sophistication defined, as far as I'm concerned. Speaking of my grandmother, what's ore refined than a grey tweed handbag? Love the rosettes also; completes the look.

8. Floral Messenger Bag
 I really like the vintage feel of the fabric used for this bag. The colors are perfect for springtime.

9. Floral Pleated Purse
Another great purse from the same Etsy seller as the last two. Florals like this one usually aren't my thing, but I LOVE the colors in this one. What a great color combination, and so feminine. Apparently this purse isn't made-to-order like the others and has already sold. Too bad.

10. Pear Canvas Pumpkin Bag
Although I would never be able to find enough things to fill this bag, even as a mom of two boys, I've been in love with this one for awhile. I'm pretty sure it's the color that I'm drawn to.

And speaking of cute handbags, my sister gave me this one for Christmas this year.

My Etsy Trend: Pears and Plums

I was scrolling through my favorites list on Etsy and noticed a definite color scheme happening. Many of my items were pear green or a deep purple. I have always loved purple, so that color wasn't surprising to see, but I had never really considered myself a huge fan of green. I suppose it's starting to grow on me. Here are a few of my faves:

I love, love, LOVE these ottomans! It may be due to the way the seller is displaying them, but I think that they are gorgeous.

This leather journal is actually already sold, (they sell really quickly, so if you see something you really like, you have to act fast!), but I still had to share it. Every now and then the seller puts this one back up for sale. Check out the other journals available. They are all really awesome!









I really love this canvas bag. I think I came across it while I was doing a search on canvas grocery bags. As an extra bonus, this one has a plum lining inside! This seller has many bags on my favorites list, and although I question how "handmade" these might be, I'm still in love with them.

In my dream house, I would have a purple-themed guest bedroom (I already have the perfect quilt). This pillow would have to be a part of it. I am a little disappointed that this is only being sold as a cover, (because really, who wants to have to go searching for the right-sized pillow to put inside of it?), but I still love it. This seller has some really unique pillow designs.

This is another item that has unfortunately sold, but I'm keeping it on my list because I love the colors. I'm hoping that the seller will make another one of these some day.

I'm not really sure why I like this purse. Maybe it's the two colors together? Or the cute butterfly decoration? Ideally, I would prefer this to be a brighter purple, but this works too.

I like how the seller chose to refurbish this vintage candle holder. The color works for me. I wonder what color it was initially?

I love these thank you cards. This seller has actually inspired me to (eventually) try my hand at card making to sell on Etsy. (I've made Christmas cards in the past for friends and family).

Here's a cute little photo album that uses both of these colors.

Every now and then I find myself drawn to some grape-themed items. I'm not sure why, maybe it's the purple color that comes along with them. (I have some great vintage purple grape salt and pepper shakers from Etsy!)

Last but not least is this awesome vintage bathing suit. I realize that this one isn't pear green, but I love it nonetheless and had to share it with you.
