As a blogger, a style addict and a shopper who enjoys the thrill of the hunt, I'm continually in search of originality to sate my design thirst. (I guess you could call it style ADD.) New workings of classic looks never fail to get my attention. Get out of your rut and into a fresh aesthetic with today's collection of trend-focused Etsy Finds.
Bring an exotic bent to your wardrobe with the vibrant patterns of tribal inspired clothing and accessories. Look for fringe, feathers, geometric and animal prints, and jewelry inspired by ancient artifacts.
Invoke the authenticity of a simpler time with the functional designs of 1930s interiors. This collection was inspired by the Whistle Stop Cafe of Fried Green Tomatoes fame. Reclaimed barn wood, etched mirrors, Mason jars, globe lamps and cozy rag rugs add to the primitive feel.

The Mayan calendar's end is quickly approaching (2012!), and post-apocalyptic fashion is here to greet it.
