Selling Guide

Depop or Poshmark; these platforms cater specifically to the younger demographic looking for 2000s vintage accessories.
Selling Tips
Use keywords like 'Y2K', 'Boho', 'Sage Green', and 'Cottagecore'. Lightly brush the suede with a suede brush to revive the nap before photographing. Take photos in natural light to capture the true green hue.
