Some mornings I stare into the powder keg that passes for my closet and ruefully wring my hands. There's so much potential to work with — a pencil skirt here, a worn-in t-shirt there, a leather vest in the mix (all crumpled and on the floor, mind you) — but the seemingly simple act of clothing myself while remaining fashionably current can be a daunting prospect. Today's collection of Etsy Finds aims to mix and match those familiar faves with a variety of up-and-coming styles, materials, colors and patterns. Make your morning routine a breeze with easy-to-wear trends, courtesy of Etsy's always forward-thinking sellers.
Rope and Braid Accents
Mix nautical details with friendship bracelet nostalgia and you've opened an eye-catching can o' worms.
Studs, Chains and Leather
You don't have to be in a motorcycle gang to strike a raucous pose. Call it biker chic or punk-inspired, but the rough and tumble trend has something for everyone (and many vegan options). Start with small accessories and work your way up to the coup de grace: the jacket!
Bold Magenta
Look for this dynamic hue in clothing, accessories and cosmetics. (And make sure to use Etsy's Shop by Color tool to find more vibrant gems.)
Metallics in the Mix
Keep your wardrobe shining, polished and sleek with gleaming metallics.
Short and Sassy Ankle Boots
Be it granny, cowboy, moccasin or wedge, the short boot silhouette is not to be missed. Snag some of these beauties!
Hand-Dyed Clothing
These pieces are truly tie dye for (but seriously, folks: what gorgeous techniques!). Check out Christine's collection of hand-dyed fashion for more examples.
