if money was no object...

if i wasn't limiting my purchases of new things due to the wardrobe refashion pledge, if money grew on flowering spring trees, i'd delightfully purchase any of the following lovely things... for starters, these hoopla earrings by ryan kundrat, available at stars and infinite darkness:

i adore the bit of rubber that ryan has inserted in these minimal sterling hoops. it apparently comes in a myriad of bright colors. subtile but yet rather bold, all at once.

thanks to k. cooper of hoping for happy accidents, one of my very very very favorite style blogs, i'm now obsessed with these gold nugget-eqsue earrings and cocktail ring by klaus burgel:

this striped scarf may be a product of a mass marketer (jcrew), but is undeniably lovely to me, with it's woolen texture, bright yellow color (bright yellow is one of my favorite colors o' the moment!), and tie dye treatment, making it feel a little artsy and hand-hewn:

it could be worn as a scarf (natch!), but also as a headscarf or even a belt. would look killer with dark denim anything, or textiles that embody an emerald hue.

i love the irreverent, somewhat naughty yet cute pattern on this little pouch by medicom toy life entertainment, available at the always amazing online shop creatures of comfort:

petite pouches like this are ever so versatile, allowing for use as cosmetic purses, a bag to store little knitting supplies, or even jewelry bags for traveling.

these superbly crafted wooden heeled sandals by chie mihara (found at what i think is one of the most amazing shoe outlets ever, gravity pope, of canada) have a 70s earthy sexy vibe:

i love that the heel is actually wooden (at least i hope it is, as i abhor fake wood on shoes...UCK! it looks cheap!). the detailing on the top of the shoe is exceedingly lovely and actually quite a bit graphic...right up my alley. i see them as the perfect addition to tight dark jeans with a handmade orange dress over top.
