Joules’ Jewels Vintage

5 INSPIRING ETSY SHOPS TO DISCOVER Paper Flo Design #paperflodesign #etsysellers

Jillian Knox, founder of Joules’ Jewels Vintage

Joules’ Jewels Vintage is vintage vendor stocking a variety of merchandise including: regular and plus size women’s, men’s, and children’s clothing, housewares, and occasionally hand-finished vintage furniture.

What do you do?

“I’m a stylist, and I love showing people that wearing vintage doesn’t have to be stuffy, boring, or costume-y. The easiest way to illustrate this was to model the looks myself! I’m happy to supply unique pieces to ladies who have often been forgotten. When you feel good, you move differently, you smile more, and you can truly be you.”

What motivates you?

“My mission is ‘fashion to the people, for every shape, color, and size.’ I was having trouble finding a curated supply of dope vintage, so I decided that I should help my fellow curvy sisters by dedicating a section of my shop to them. “
