LOVING these headbands from Bambako. This brand new collection was designed by recent college grad Abigail Ricarte in order to get through an awkward growing out phase. As you can see, I had a hard time choosing my favorites but you can find yours here at fantastic (read: recession friendly) prices. 
Love these sweet vintage infused pieces from Tree & Kimball. The girsl are Anthropologie designers by day and recently lanched their own their own accessories collection. Check them out here...and not at Anthropologie prices!
I got lucky browing etsy today when I came across featured seller Urban Heirlooms. This New Jersey based designer reworks the heck out of vintage leather and accessorizes her handmade pieces with antique hardware. Check out Urban Heirlooms here.
Andrea blogged Leigh & Luca some time ago and I immediately saved them to my favorites. I love the fresh hues and bold prints. Leigh & Luca is a small collection of scarves from designers and friends Gillian Leigh and Susann Luca. Aside from the gorgeous colors, I adore that these ladies have designed/redesigned just one item and I'm still captivated. The cute little lady helps too!
Gorgeous accessories from Battalion Armour. I love the masculine feel of these items with a little feminine energy thrown in through the floral band and hidden patterns. Check them out here...cool black and white video at the start of the site too.
I found Alexandra in my inbox today via Daily Candy. This artist creates limited edition and "sometimes one of a kind" accessories that are loaded with personality. Alexandra's collections are entitled summer one and two because in her world 'it's always summer somewhere'...my kind of girl! Most of summer one is sold out but I'm jonesing for the tote bag and pencil case in summer two. Check them out here.
These headbands from Moth Love can really take you back to your "princess dressup" days... way to replace the plastic tiara. Made from sustainable leather straps and hand plucked pheasant feathers, they are absolutely gorgeous and delicate. These are on my wishlist this year...check them out at Stars or visit Moth Love.
Isn't this delightfully unique? Take a look at Cali based Little Purls who has elevated "knit one, purl two" to new heights with her knitted jewelry. Check out her shop here. 
Today I felt for some lighthearted style with it being almost...gasp...60 degrees! in New York. Flowie is a new lifestyle collection of home goods and accessories. Everything is printed onto linen or cotton, made in the U.S., and pretty adorable to boot. California based Yaling Hou is based in California and applies her nature inspired prints to this easy going collection. That cute little bag is fully lined and all of $66.
iWood has taken one of my favorite accessories to another level with their wooden sunglasses.
styles featured here are available at Saks
I love the color range available from designer Elif Akaydin. Using soft, lightweight Italian leather Elif's collection "Delight in Creation" is made to order in New York.
Scarves deserve more credit. Whether slinky, chunky, or lightweight they take me through three seasons; I think that's enough wear to consider myself slightly attached to my growing collection of scarves. I was immediately hooked when Marjory emailed me about Miss Bruno; a sweet collection that offers a renewed look at the scarf using recycled materials. Each style is handmade to order and features trims like leather and lace as well as beautiful pairings of materials. Sure your new coat may get less attention now, but your neck deserves a little special treatment now and then. Check out the shop here to see the full collection.
Would you believe these bags are made from inner tubes....and not just your average inner tube but ones that are supplied by local truck stops after about 60,000 miles on them. How's that for re-invention? As a vegetarian, designer Heather English thought her options were limited when looking for durable handbags. Her necessity turned into a collection of bags and small accessories. Check out the collection here.
Hand made leather goods from Jutta Neumann. Jutta makes every item, including sandals, bags, and belts from her new york studio/storefront. Check out the variety of styles and colors here.
Mark Eley & Wakako Kishimoto introduced themselves in the early 90's with a reputation for incredible print design. After displaying their work on the catwalks through Loius Vuitton and Alexander McQueen, they launched a womenswear collection. It's certainly not hard to see why they're still called upon to design textiles for everything from interior design to cars; these guys are masters of print & pattern. The collection is broad, and includes lifestyle items like fabrics, glassware, and wallpaper. All of which are fabulous indeed.
EFive Design is the brainchild of Candy Woolley, another designer of many disiplines. With products ranging from home decor to earrings, Candy has recently introduced her version of the croc trend. Made from farmed hornback Nile crocodiles, the belts are all hand made to order and come in a variety of colors. The designer pulls from her Spanish origins to inject a sense of color and exoticism into her collections, check out the belts here.
