Kanzashi! Intricately folded flowers of hand-dyed silk, plum blossoms and chrysanthemums and even sunflowers perched on clips, combs, headbands, hair prongs, and brooches. Obi belts feature size-adjustable corset lacing and big fat bows and kimono blouses are on the way. The rest of the catalog tips fae/bellydance with filigree wings and ornate headdresses, dichroic glass twinkles and winterberry branches sculpted from wire. Custom welcome.

An enormous array of skimpy clubwear and some actual practical stuff too, tunic turtlenecks among the plunging necklines and metallic minidresses. Leggings, rompers, pleather motorcycle jackets, denim skinnies and flares, plenty of separates to play with, a ton of costume jewelry, 20 pages of Halloween costumes, and what looks to be Leg Avenue’s entire catalog. Particularly good for scrunchy ankle boots and platform pumps and all the other fun 80’s-esque styles in materials that are not leather.

Handmade jewelry where bold, clean lines swerve into bouts of understated industrial elegance. Earrings hook spirals and corkscrews through the lobes up to 10g, the rings look spit from the mouths of dainty little robots, the necklaces are distressed hearts and sci-fi discs, the bangles are sometimes collapsible, and some of this can be customized with names and messages. Thanks, Miko!

An online consignment shop run by the owner of Ji Ji Kiki, once again showing off an eye for the cute with a roster of teenytiny indie brands working in jewelry, accessories, home decor, and paper goods. Carousel necklaces, orange slice rings, cat-shaped lavender sachets, comic book envelopes, hair flowers, linen purses, an overall gathering of, to borrow from one of the featured brands, dainty pretty things. Artists and designers are welcome to come sell their stuff.

Elegant jewelry crafted from a disparate array of elements, incorporating recycled metals, glass, Swarovski crystals and hemp twine into necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. Found objects clanging together in a charm arrangement, scrolls and squiggles looping about the neck and wrist, etched copper cuffs made from roofing material, ear spirals that don’t demand a greater gauge than 18. Also pet tags and jewelry trees. Thanks, Miko!

A consignment shop showcasing clothes, accessories, jewelry, and home stuff from a bunch of tiny indie brands. Bright happy tunics, bird earrings, funky tote bags, loads of stationery, soaps and candles, and a page of ‘zines. And if you’re a small-biz brand, they’re actively seeking new “partners in craft.”

Utterly insane ear jewelry carved from organic materials, and they mean it when they say they have something for everyone. The bone and horn is ethically collected, and their use of coconut shells, gemstones, and exotic woods open up the selection to vegans – and plentiful 1mm gauges mean you don’t have to stretch your lobes to flaunt their incredible selection of floral-tribal-winged-helixed-vertebral designs.
