41ebb5cd56e2e29736c3cd9f3984b157_2This tee reminds the Rage of how she never got that horse she begged for throughout her tender teen years--and there's nothing she likes more than to seethe about her childhood. Designed by Loyalty and Blood  -- a line out of Brooklyn that sells on Etsy -- the top adds some edge to equestrian wear.  You get homage to all things horsey in preppy green, but the muscle cut of the tee shirt deducts the cutesy factor. Just ordered it in M from Etsy.com, a website that you should know about if you dig hand-crafted clothes, jewelry, and ephemera.

The site just relaunched its "Alchemy" function, which allows you to request precisely what you would like crafted by an artisanPhoto_14 and how much you plan to spend. For instance, one post today reads: "I would like 5 pairs of handmade earrings using shell or mother of pearl material. Color ivory/cream or a shade of brown, even pale pink would be perfect. I want simple earrings that dangle. Earthy looking, yet feminine. These are for my bridesmaids!" Etsy members respond with bids and match your request and price.

How's that for customer service?

UPDATE: Got the shirt and here's how it looks on.  The medium is a great fit.
