Murval Summer Travel ToteThis bag from Murval (the big one shown in the photo) is so chic. I love the brown and turquoise baroque pattern. At 19 inches wide and 11 inches tall, this bag makes a great weekender bag or a carry-on. And it's canvas, so you could even toss a couple of towels in it and take it to the beach.

Ladybug Watch NecklaceHere's yet another necklace watch. These things are everywhere, but I do think it's classier to tell time with your necklace than your cell phone--which is how I've been doing it these days. I like how this ladybug's wings open up to reveal the watch. Plus, the price is low enough that you won't feel horrible if this fad dies out next month.
$9.80, Forever 21
Citrine Fringe EarringsI love the golden sparkle of these citrine earrings. The citrine drops are decorated with a little fringe of golden garnets. The earrings are a little less than an inch long.
$60.00 for silver or goldfill metal components and $75.00 for 14-karat gold, Michele Lynne Designs
Ladybird Watch Locket NecklaceThis pocket watch necklace is so pretty. I love the bird and flower designs and the decorative shape. It's a two-inch gold plated locket on a 27-inch gold-plated chain. Just don't do any jogging with this thing on or you might knock yourself out.
$20.00, Fred Flare
Pa-Tou-Tou Canasta ToteThis canvas bag is a little wonky, but I like it. The color combination is fun, and it has an interesting, almost feminine shape. It's kind of big too--about a foot wide. It's definitely something that has the potential to upstage the rest of your outfit in a bad way, but I think it still makes for a cool day bag.

Branch Wood Pendant Handmade NecklaceThis handmade necklace by Sharma Designs in San Jose, California, is gorgeous. It's made from pretty brown, aqua, and turquoise beads, and it has a nifty round maple pendant. The necklace measures about 15 inches. This would look great with a nice summery dress and some sandals.

Goldfish BagI like goldfish. Especially in cracker form. So I think this clutch is pretty great. It's made of blue cotton linen with an orange cotton twill lining and orange leather appliqués. The bag is pretty roomy too--it's 14 inches wide.
$75.00, MoMA Store
Toxic Critters Zip WalletThis vinyl wallet decorated with animals looks so cutesy until you realize the squirrel has three eyes and the raccoon has two tails... and they're all hanging out next to an industrial plant. Somehow, it's still pretty cute anyway. The company also makes coin purses featuring your favorite mutated animals here.
$24.00, Gama-Go
Loop Express Yourself BagThis handbag is kind of scary looking, but kind of awesome. It's from Loop, one of my favorite accessories designers, and each side of the black-and-white striped bag has a different face. One side is a grinning smiley face. The other is pure wrath. You can decide which one you feel like showing to the world today.

Antique Pottery Shard NecklaceI like how this pretty necklace from Twist Style in Richmond, Virginia, looks both Victorian and modern. The pendant is made of vintage porcelain pottery, and the strand is hand-knotted cord, which is about 17-inches long, that's strung with blue Italian crystal beads.
$68.00, Etsy
Recycled Magazine ClutchThis clutch designed by Nahui Ollin is made of recycled paper and magazine clippings that have been covered in recycled plastic. That makes for a cool eco-friendly bag that looks sort of like a ransom note. It's definitely a conversation piece.
$100.00, MoMA Store
Geode Slice NecklaceThis necklace, designed by Peggy Li, is so beautiful. It's made of a milky slice of agate geode from Brazil, with crystals lining the center. The agate pendant is about 1.5 inches long. It comes with either a gold-fill or a sterling silver chain, in lengths of 16, 18, and 20 inches.
$59.00, Peggy Li Creations
Cerises EarringsThese 1.5-inch cherry earrings from Sweet Rhyme (a division of Rhyme and Reason Designs in Santa Barbara, California), are just too precious. They're made with sterling silver stems, red glass cherries, glass flowers, and peridot chips for leaves.

Vintage Flower BroochAdd some whimsy to corporate attire, liven up a sweater, or add a splash of color to a handbag with this funky purple '60s brooch. Orange Button has a wide selection of brightly-colored vintage brooches here.
$25.00, Orange Button
Glitter Bangle BundleIf you're going to wear multicolor glitter bangles, I think it's important go for it and wear a gob of them. This set comes with 18. The better to add sparkle to your wrist. Or whole arm.
