Batik Yourself

home decor, indonesian batik, sarong, summer fashion, vintage
I love vintage Indonesian batiks; great to wear to those many cookouts, beach parties, and other fun things you’re invited to.
Of course, throw it over your favorite chair that may need some TLC, or simply hang up and enjoy the beauty of something handmade:

Wrap Yourself in Okapiknits

knitted handmade clothes, paris designers
I stumbled across Okapiknits, a fellow etsy shop, and it quickly became one of my favorites:

Okapi knits’ profile states that the designer loves to make “exciting, knitted clothes and accessories.
And yes, exciting is the word. I love the creativity and organic feel, just jumping out of the screen. The white knitted accessory above looks like it’s about to slither off and find a new way to wrap itself around the model, creating a whole new look.
