Black Cat Rechargable Flashlight ($10)

The best part in my opinion? Those little feet. What are those all about? Adorable. From Uncommon Goods.

Emily Tote ($92)

Botanical and orange. I could not be more attracted to this bag than I already am. Also, the construction looks beautiful. From Sage Saks.

Spirit Level Necklace ($42)

They're always telling us to achieve balance in our lives, right? From Sherry Truitt Studios.

Tree Shower Curtain ($40)

Natural and modern. From Urban Outfitters.

Reusable Produce & Bulk Drawstring Bags ($18)

If you're looking for a way to stop using those annoying, floaty little bags that are for bagging up fruit and veggies at the supermarket, these may be just the thing. Machine washable, the set includes one large bag, two medium, and one small. From Good Karma.

Waterpik Ultra Dental Water Jet ($51)

I hate flossing. Haaaate it. And the internet says that the Waterpik is as good as flossing. Some studies said so or something. I'm not sure if this is really true, but it's a good excuse to play with this complicated-looking appliance for a while. From Amazon.

Crisp Okra Pickles ($14)

I just got turned on to these recently, and they are delicious. They are the shiz. The, if you will, bee's knees. The mild ones have a taste a little like the pepperocinis that sometimes come with your pizza, but milder, and more okra-y. Seven bucks plus about $7 in shipping gets you one jar of hot, one jar of mild. Totally worth it. From Talk of Texas.

Sterling Silver Circle Earrings ($25)

These are great: uncomplicated and sleek, but with a little bit of roughness from the hammered sterling. From Jewelry Fool.

Northern State "Can I Keep This Pen?" ($17)

If you loved their first album, "Dying In Stereo," you'll like this one, which has that great old-school Beastie Boys-style rap with a feminist twist. From Amazon.

Pop Secret Lip Balm ($5)

This is either going to be really delicious or really gross. Either way, can you resist at least trying it? From Perpetual Kid.

USB Hub Snake ($18)

This cheerful beast doles out USB power to all your usb add-ons, or distributes power democratically to gadgets that don't want to wait in a long line to charge up. From Flight 001.

Shoppista is sick and writing final papers. Posting may be sporadic over the next 1.5 weeks. Expect dramatic upticks during periods of procrastination and mysterious radio silence while actual work gets done. Summer is coming soon, Windowshoppistes, along with more regular coverage. Apologies.

Industrial Felt Penguin Coasters ($19)

Who likes a frosty drink better than a penguin? From Joshua Stone: American Handmade.

Stoneware Honeycomb Pendant ($45)

Stoneware is usually for cups and plates, so it's inspiring to see it in this delicately configured pendant instead. From Paige Russell Design.

Printed Pareo / Scarf ($62)

Yeah, spendy, but hey! It works on the beach or around your neck. From Cerulean.

Silver Oval Hoop Earrings ($20)

Fine silver* oval hoops with sterling hooks. Handmade. Gorgeous. From Gemma Factrix.

*Fine silver is like sterling, but with more silver in it.

Vintage Pyrex Mixing Bowl Set ($65)

These look to be in great shape. If your mom used these, like mine did, you may not feel really grown up until you have a set of your own. From That's Swell.

Japanese Dog Zipper Pencil Pouch ($11)

I just received this new pencil case in the mail, and I am in love with it. It's just as pictured here, only cuter, and very durable. Also, it's got a small profile in terms of purse room taken up, but holds a billion pens and pencils. (Okay, not a billion. But a lot.) Buy yours at NancyM4.

Peppermint Face-Blotting Papers ($10)

These little papers that soak up oil are a much better solution than another layer of powder on your skin. Plus, peppermint is bound to perk you up. (There are other scents, too, like lavender and orange, if those are more your style.) From Boscia.

The "Nubrella" Umbrella ($60)

Do I like this umbrella? Reader, I would marry this umbrella. It rests on your shoulders, enveloping you in a cozy, see-thru cocoon of rain-proofness. It never inverts in strong winds. It looks like movies about the future. It, in short, blinds me with science. Order here.
