These platform sandals truly are foxy. Especially if you've got a bright new pedicure poking out from the peep toes. They have a cool retro stacked three-inch wooden heel and pretty dark teal leather T-straps. They'd look totally cute with a sundress or a long flowy summer skirt.

These hanging lanterns give your porch or deck or balcony a little romance. I like how easy they are to set up too. You just pop in a votive, and hang it from a hook or a nail. They come in two sizes, one with a five-inch-wide base and one with an eight-inch-wide base. Besides the color seen here, you can also buy them in turquoise or white.

These T-strap flats demand attention. The loud houndstooth print makes a subdued outfit--yes, I'm thinking of the all-black outfits we often wear in New York--more interesting. And it makes loud, colorful outfits all the more loud and insane.

These ballet flats are bright and fun. In addition to this color, they come in blue, yellow, and brown. And the python pattern makes them a lot more interesting. These would look great with jeans or a summery skirt.

I 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.

This soft gray jersey tank has such pretty embellishments. The scoop collar is decked out with pleated ruffles, lace, and flowers made from fabric and buttons. This would look great by itself with jeans or under a nice jacket.

Best. Speakers. Ever. Well, funniest, at least--I don't know about the sound quality. You can use these speakers, which are shaped like oversize iPod buds, for your computer or for sharing your MP3s with a wider audience. Just try to resist taking a picture of yourself holding these huge things to your ears as you casually bop to your iPod tunes.

I love the look of this vertical shelf for books and knickknacks. It's way more interesting than a plain horizontal slat. Plus, it nestles perfectly into small vestibules and corners. It's about three feet long and eight inches wide.

I 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.

I 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.
