How to Master the Art of Selling Clothes on Depop

Etsy was founded in Brooklyn in 2005 and has since established itself as the go-to online shopping destination for vintage and handmade goods and arts and craft supplies. In 2015, Etsy went public on the stock market and joined NASDAQ's composite index, which includes companies like Apple, Tesla, Amazon, and Facebook. Etsy's acquisition of Gen-Z fashion app Depop is a bid to connect with younger customers who share Etsy's interest in vintage and secondhand fashion from independent merchants, sellers, and brands.

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
