Seadbeady's finds on Etsy - 9

Hi There.....Are you preparing for Fall?

I don't know actually if I will ever be prepared for that season cause it is not really my favorite. Although I think it does have some good things too.....like the colors for instance and seeing new collections of clothes for the season in shops.

Before my gastric bypass, I didn't really care that much for new clothes.....the only thing I did find interesting were shoes cause no matter how much my weight was they would always stay the same size. Oh yes, and accessories, of course, like scarves they would always fit no matter what.

Ah, I bet you want to know what my weight was before and now. I went from 108 kg down to about 67.5 or 68 kg now 😁

It has been a year and a half now since I took that step and I haven't regretted one single moment. And my eating habits have changed a lot. The most positive thing about it is that I don't crave things that hold too much sugar anymore.....There are a lot of things that I don't even like anymore that I used to love eating. And I am not interested in learning to eat them again. The more I stay away from sweet things the less I crave them.....It takes discipline but I know now that I never wanna go back to the way I was 😰

But let's talk about my favorite thing about autumn.....The colors for this year's Fall Fashion.

This is what I found on Vogue Italia about it 😊


  • Whisky brown: a warm, enveloping hue, just like the famous liquor. Its natural nuances remind of wood’s veining. Sies Marjan, Calvin Klein, ChloΓ©
  • Cherry red: a “full-bodied” color, ideal to enhance velvet, tulle and satin. Ideal for elegant, retro-feel looks. Bottega Veneta, Oscar de la Renta, Givenchy
  • Digital blue: the color of almost all social networks. A color that evokes technology, and the future. Perfect for all cyber girls. Stella McCartney, Marni, Prabal Gurung
  • Fuchsia pink: it’s still one of the favorite hues with designers. Exuberant if worn from head to toe, or as a creative detail. Ulla Johnson, Valentino, Alexander McQueen
  • Lavender: also called “lilac”, it’s a pastel tone that, unlike pink or baby blue can add character to a statement or intricate outfit.Acne Studios, Gucci, Miu Miu
  • Orange: Fall’s symbolic hue, it will stand out with all its “vitaminic” effect. Dare to wear an orange suit to fight the dropping temperatures. Lanvin, Moschino, Prada
  • Sapphire yellow: to uplift classic patterns, like florals or checks. Balenciaga, Versace, Michael Kors Collection
  • Olive green: apparently subdued, it is similar to military green but has a golden undertone.

  • Marble gray: it’s the new black, perfect from am to pm, from office suit to cocktail dress. Louis Vuitton, Alexander Wang, Valentin Yudashkin
  • Silver: shiny and with a mirrored effect. On elegant metallic silver dresses or couture overcoats. Alberta Ferretti, Giorgio Armani, Balmain

So here are a few things I found on Etsy for the coming season πŸ˜ƒ

Introducing you to - Katsign

Hi There.....Are you a fan of cats or maybe even a cat lady?

I am just crazy about those little creatures.....but I am also a big fan of the bigger types of cats as long as they can't get to me lol 😁

That is why today I want to introduce you to Katsign

She makes the most beautiful pictures of cats. Her object is to catch that natural look that portrays the character of the cat. She has had tons of experience.....that is why she speaks their language to get them in a relaxed pose in front of the camera. She strives to get the perfect picture in a relaxed way.

She has been in the press on numerous occasions and her pictures have been published in magazines.
Last year she received the first-ever European Photographer Label as a European Cat photographer.

In short.....she is amazing 😊

But that's not all she also makes all kinds of cat stuff. Cute and fun things made out of pure felt and 100% cotton. Things like jewelry with all kinds of animals, cat baskets, clutches, purses, keychains, brooches, and so much more.

Most recently she added special Cat T-shirts for women to her shop. Super soft in a mix of bamboo (70% bamboo and 30% biological cotton) and Fair Wear. They are being handprinted in London and for every T-shirt she sells a part gets donated to the World Land Trust to protect endangered species.

Don't you just love it when people come up for a good cause.

So here is a selection I made of her pictures and the things she makes
