My newly thought up term; defined of course by “looking online for stores with hidden little gems, but not buying”. Strangely, it leaves you feeling quite satisfied and… the bank account remains intact (sometimes). Obviously, the hunt itself is the best part. I love looking for “creativity at its best” type items. You know the ones, they make you feel warm and happy inside when you see them, liked Grandma-made wool mittens.
Here is my favourite little thing that I found on today’s prowl.
Bird Tee
Shirin Roubeni's line of simple nature-inspired pictures on organic cotton tops are edgy - but not too edgy. The leopards, butterflies, dragonflies hand created by Roubeni and hand screened by her haven't lost their nobility when brought down to little kid sizes, but the ruffles on this bird give it just enough to take it into the little girl realm. Here miniature couture is funky, fun, but definitely still couture. Find it here at: Shirin NYC
the best hidden gems are always in etsy shops. :)
