How I hate this term. Shabby is worn, threadbare, delapidated and there is nothing chic about that. I refuse to buy anything advertised as "shabby chic" because I find the terminology so revolting. Even if you are selling a great vintage item, I will ignore it because YOU have listed it as "shabby".
If you must indulge in crappy descriptions why not use "cottage chic" instead? Or just "vintage"?
Shabby garments are something I would not even donate to Goodwill, so please don't assume I want a shabby decor!
Update: I noticed a quilt fabric company called "Shabby Fabrics"...please. Aren't you just dying to feather your nest with shabby crap?
Me neither
