Back to School: Etsy Style

I know what you're thinking: handmade? vintage? style? Not exactly the first things you think of when you're putting together amazing outfits guaranteed to make you one of the cool kids (or the cool teacher or the cool mom, for that matter) that first day of school, but check out these great finds on Etsy, things that won't be the same as everyone else in school, finds that will make you stand out from the crowd, but in a totally, amazingly good way!
