Take a minute to browse the handmade and vintage items found on Etsy.com. If you are creative and make your own clothes, bags, or any other crafts entertain the possibility of selling them on Etsy. Personally I think that handmade items are unique and more personal. Buy a bag from Old Navy and it is guaranteed you'll see someone else wearing the same bag as you. Buy a handmade bag on Etsy.com and the chances of bumping into someone with your same style is greatly reduced.
Check out a few items I selected below that are featured on Etsy
I'm not usually a big fan of courduroy, however this burnt red courdoroy bag is a stylish version of this fabric. The bag is rather large. It would be great for commuting or if you need to carry something large such as portfolios, a labtop, or art pieces. There are 6 pockets on the inside. You could fit everything you could possibly need in this bag.
The website describes the bag as a rich brown, however in the picture it looks more like a burgundy. The inner lining is pink. The bag is cute and small. It would work well as a cosmetic case.
This vintage black leather clutch is simple and sophisticated. The textured front of the bag makes it more interesting than if it were a plain black clutch. The closure is magnetic and has 2 zipper compartments inside.
May Milto French Dancer Passport Holder
The dual pocket holder and a cute way to hold your passport, rather than tossing it to the bottom of your carry on bag. The passport holder is made of canvas and covered with vinyl, making it durable. I may be partial to this passport holder because the screenprint is of May Milton, a piece done by Toulouse-Lautrec. I enjoy a lot of his work.
These bibs are sturdy, waterproof, reversible, easy to clean, and best of all eco-friendly! The idea to re-use plastic bags to create a cute bib is a clever new way to recycle. The cotton tape around the edges make the bibs softer on babies necks. The bibs have a velcro closure.
These clutches are very simple in structure, however the brighter colors make them interesting. A bold, bright color works better with a simple cut anyway.
Another clutch, sorry I can't help myself. The same creator of the bold leather clutch created this edgier version of the classic clutch. Merely use exciting material, in this case a faux croc leather in a dark wine. This clutch would be great for a night out.
Red is my favorite color, as I've mentioned before. The case is simple but the red makes it more interesting than a brown or black.
This brownish gray leather clutch has a brown reptile stripe that runs down the middle. This clutch has a snap closure.
