So, you may have noticed that I’ve added some very shiny new buttons over on the sidebar recently. Over there, under the title “Pretty, Pretty Things I Wouldn’t Kick Out of Bed For Eating Crackers”… yeah, that’s the one!
Anyhoodle, these lovely stores represent all things that I find shiny and fun… jewelry, photography, sex toys…
Well, see for yourself. The holidays are lurking, after all!
Click the shop buttons to check out their purty stuffs and things!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Alex ”recycles vintage and resale jewelry into fresh and {new} pieces”… and they are absolutely beautiful. Fun, flirty, and overall divine…
See?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rachel’s stuff is so classic and chic… I just want it all to be mine. How bad ass is this?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tanya, the artist of Aardvark Silver, also offers you guys a discount: “Livit Luvit in the coupon code box will get you 25% off from now until Dec 31st! Hurry as all items are One Of A Kind. Shipping is by registered Air Mail and takes up to 2 weeks so make sure to order earlier rather than later so it gets there in time! You can use the coupon as often as you would like.”
Gor-jus…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I want to NOM this ring in the face. Right in its pretty, pretty vibrant blue face. Beth Cyr’s shop is FULL of gorgeous gems like these…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have a special place in my heart for this shop, and not just because she sent me a totally bad ass steampunk necklace that I absolutely adore. DRYAN327′s gorgeous things include “Vintage Charms, Pendants, Lockets & Steampunk”… emphasis on the steampunk, peoples. I mean, how freaking cool is this??
I KNOW.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jess is a Chicago-based jewelry artist, and I truly mean it when I say her stuff is breathtaking. Chic and classic, you’ve got to see it to understand…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here’s the blurb from Diva Loves Silver’s gorgeous shop… “Welcome to Diva Loves Silver! We feature UNIQUE and ONE OF A KIND silver jewelry: flower bracelets and flower pendants, as well as keepsake pendants and other animal-featured pendants, just to name a few of our high-quality, unique design of silver jewelry. We also feature lovely dangle earrings and stud earrings, along with silver necklaces to complement your profile.”

Oh, how I want that wee elephant to be mine…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This store is so damn FUN it’s ridiculous. They’re the cutest little hats you ever did see, and just in time for Fall…
WANT!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you don’t know Diana’s photography, you must be blind, because it’s everywhere in the blogosphere… and with good reason.
Here’s my favorite print, which is hanging on my fridge at home right now:
But I’m also especially partial to this one:

No idea why…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And last but not least, the ADORAMABLE vintage store Some Like It Vintage. Hands off, ladies (and Ben). This bad boy is MINE.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Disclaimer: Yes, these fabulous people/shops/etc. gave me some “incentive”- heh, heh- to post their buttons. BUT I sought them out and inquired with them, specifically because I love their stuff, so consider this endorsement whole-hearted, my friends!
Happy shopping!

I wish I had money to buy these things! I absolutely love the gray hat, its so cute.
Love the hats! And the jewelry. I guess I just love your taste.
At first, I was just absently scrolling down, looking for the link to the sex toys, and then I saw Aardvark silver, and thought how fond I am of silver jewellery and how, yes, Christmas is coming up, so I’d just have a look… now I am trying to limit myself to just buying one item. And then I had to go and click the link for RetroRepro, for that special hat-lover in my life and wonder if I can afford to buy one thing from each….
And, of course, wondering how it would be possible to bribe you to pimp my own art prints
I absolutely ADORE that blue ring. Just adore it.
I too love finding new pretty things. Thanks for the links!
You have awesome taste…but we already knew that!
kym likes shiny things.. yumm. these are all beautiful pieces, i especially love the first one!
That elephant (pronounced L-ee-fant) needs me for real!
I absolutely love this post!
Great shopping links! =]
I hope you’re having fun on your trip…
And all those links are bad bad bad!
I do love that lapis ring! Cute, cute, cute things!
My visa fingers are starting to get itchy. Damn you, Lilu!
ohhh i love fun toys!
I’m sooooo in a shopping mood! But really, just for myself!
Ugh. If only I weren’t broke as all shit… But Xmas is coming up and I definitely will be checking these places out. Unfortunately for me they will be gifts for others and not me. Boo!
Vintage hats in New York = Classic
Vintage hats in Colorado = Confusing
Ooooh, now you’re just tempting me!
Fun Fun!! Thanks!
Cute stuff! Must…resist…urge…to buy…scrabble nerd photo…for boyfriend. Must….resist….
You’ d look fabulous in one of these..
any time i see free shipping i’m tempted to buy it…no matter what “it” is
Thank you for the adorable hat store!! I’m always looking for new vendors on Etsy!!
Mad love for that ring. Gorgeous.
These all make me wish I had a lovely piece of plastic to swipe and get all these! I especially love that elephant necklace, I know the perfect person to get that for. Thanks for sharing all of these, they are b-e-a-utiful.
I’m a huge fan of hats. I really think that we should go back to being a hat wearing society. Sadly though, I’m also super-DUPER picky and can’t buy one without seeing it on me.
Seeing that anyone is making anything like that gives me some hope that maybe one day someone near me will be too!
OMG I want that grey hat.
You’re such a whore.
Not once do you hawk my authentic Mental Poo merchandise.
NOT ONCE.
Not my mug..
Not my THONG.
No even my Mental Poo-Looza stuff.
You’re such a sell out.
Loving the pearls
beth is a good friend of mine and her work is absolutely gorgeous…glad to see her featured.
I love that gold pearl bracelet. It is so adorable, so vintage and dainty looking. I absolutely love ittttt. =)
oooh great list.. and great list that could get a girl in trouble too!!
Although all those are very pretty things, I’m not gonna lie, I spend most of my “shopping” money on bags and shoes. Mainly because a girl can’t have enough shoes or bags. Ever.
I have to keep checking to make sure I actually have a vagina when other women start talking about shoes and jewelry. I just never got the fascination with either.
(By the way, I DO still have a vagina. I know you were probably concerned.)
Growing up with a religion that doesn’t celebrate Christmas has blown, let me tell you. I don’t plan on making my kids commit to any religion, but I’ll be damned if they don’t get Christmas.
Beautiful jewelry!
I wonder if I can commission any of these ladies to make me a choker that looks like a strip of thick cut apple wood-smoked bacon?
I love all things Shiny
So many pretty baubles! I’m already working on a purchase from one of your fab sponsors!
I love to shop and vintage is my favorite. That gray hat is so very cute!
I just LOVE Donna!! I did a feature for her awhile back and her stuff is TO.DIE.FOR. She sent me a lovely necklace and it was just beautiful.
I’ll have to check out those other stores, too! Thanks for the heads up
awesome!! thanks for the feature and so happy your pic arrived!
Aw, alas, no link to my Etsy store
Pretty jewellery tho’!
I LOVE those earrings! Totally going on my Christmas list to give the fiance.
