My Kaboodle

We're suckers for gingham. Maybe it's carryover from loving Dorothy's dress in The Wizard of Oz when we were kids or maybe it's just because it's fun and youthful without looking silly. Either way, you can imagine we were excited to see these green-and-white gingham heels pop up on ModCloth today. They're just screaming to be paired with swingy full skirts, soft eyelet dresses, and even white skinny jeans. Best of all: They're only $39.99. Score!

I've been in something of a tizzy for the past two years. You see, a couple of years ago I lost my sunglasses. They were expensive and wonderful and I haven't replaced them with anything other than cheap $5 versions since. But, with the sun blaring and summer vacation on the horizon, it's time to pick up a cute new pair of sunnies. If you're looking for a new set of shades too, check out this collection of 25 stylish sunglasses. With prices starting at $8.50, there's a pair for every budget!

Raise your hand if you like shopping for swim suits. We don't see many hands raised. It's true, swim shopping can be a drag, but Shabby Apple has launched a new collection of supercute swimwear that makes the prospect of bathing suit season a little less cringe-inducing. The retro-inspired collection is right up our alley (we love the yellow number above!) because it isn't just cute, it's affordable too—most suits are less than $100!

You know we love a good pair of shoes here at Kaboodle HQ. The old adages that shoes always fit and accessories make the outfit are ones we hold dear. And our awesome Kaboodle community members seem to feel the same way. K-Lister xjoliexgreenx's Happy Feet list is knocking our proverbial socks off. Check out all the superhot heels and summer sandals she's collected right here!

We love the animal-print trend that's been popping up over the last couple of years. Not your typical leopard- or zebra-prints, but the cool designs featuring rabbits, cats, and other faves in the animal kingdom. So, it follows that we're digging Marakita's horse-print handbag ($140 from ModCloth). The playful pattern has been combined with leather details and an acrylic tortoiseshell chain, which we love. Best of all, the look is season-less, so you buy it now and use it all through the fall!
