Even though I've never had the opportunity to venture through the streets of New Orleans' French Quarter, I find this cultural city to be a great inspiration in fashion and home décor, with its historical architecture, sounds of jazz, and smells of Creole cooking. New Orleans is on the top of my list of places to visit this spring, but in the meantime, here are some great Etsy Finds inspired by the many sights and activities I hope to experience along my journey.
