We all want our bathing suits to last the summer without staining or fading. Give them the needed TLC to make them last with Roux Maison Swimwear Laundry Detergent ($15). This formula gently removes chemical and salt buildup from delicate items, and can be used in the washing machine or for hand wash. (Though if you want to avoid annoying end-of-season pilling, we recommend the latter.)
Ah, the orange-lime sorbet combo. It's delicious on a spoon headed to our mouths, and totally stylish in this St. Tropez Graduated Necklace ($44). The necklace has the added bonus of being calorie-free.
We understand the pain and suffering that comes from being a walking, talking Crock-Pot in the middle of July. That's why we're recommending garments like this Jessica Simpson Spaghetti Strap Lightweight Maternity Tank Top ($44). It's cute, lightweight, maintains a level of style often lost in maternity wear, and will keep you as cool as you can possibly be while incubating a tiny human.
These stunning theory11 Animal Kingdom Playing Cards ($7) aren't just pretty to look at. Every deck sold puts another dollar in the hands of the World Wildlife Fund to help with habitat conservation efforts around the globe. Even if you lose a hand or two, the rainforest wins!
What's a Cheap Thrill? Just our shameless way of getting you to impulse buy! Cheap Thrill items are under $20, including shipping.
Who would have thought that romantic pink pleats and bold blue zigzags would go together quite so nicely? Seeing this Sarah Belle Dress ($41) is a bit like discovering just how delicious peanut butter, banana, and bacon sandwiches really are. Thanks, Elvis.

We suppose we haven't seen the platter of cupcakes you're going to bake for your next outdoor party, but we can only assume that they rival the Loomed Palmae Food Cover ($48) in beauty. Thankfully, the fiber and wire mesh cover will keep your sweet treats in tip-top shape - safe from bugs, heat, and little kid fingers - until you're ready to serve 'em up to guests.
This Pointed Block Heeled Shoe ($67) is rocking two kinds of funky. The first? Its zigzag-cutout-plus-transparent-trim edging. The second? The asymmetrically oriented block-shaped heels. If you think combining both in a single piece of footwear sounds like overkill, we're betting you're not the type of girl who'd dare to add both gummi bears and chocolate syrup to her sundae.
Look good even when the weather is bad! The Smythe Almost Famous Faux-Fur-Trim Coat ($348, on sale) has batwing sleeves and faux fur trim (because real fur would make this happy coat kind of a downer).
Whether they're triggered by the threat of global warming, your latest car inspection, or discovering that a friend has borrow-stolen that top you were planning on wearing, sudden bouts of overwhelming stress are a fact of life. Beat them back with the powers of this Panic Attack Candle ($23). It helps to soothe those frazzled nerves with a calming blend of lavender, mint, frankincense, and tonka bean.
Why should your clothes be the only thing with that furry look? Don't you also want that fuzzy warmth for your head during naptime? From Story North comes the By Nord Icelandic Sheepskin Cushion Cover ($264).
N-n-n-nervous? N-n-no. Why?
Dichotomous Earrings($25)
Available in NHL, NCAA, and NBA team colors for men and women (because who ever heard of a men's scarf?), this is finally the kind of tailgating accessory we can all agree on.
Except those of us who don't like tailgating when it's cold.
Sportin' Styles Scarves ($35)
Wow! With the way that smooth-talking skeleton sells it, we can't wait to see if Life lives up to the hype! The Greatest Spectacle Ever! Tee ($20) reminds us all that life really is a "limited time offer."
Nuts for those nifty maps they use in the Indiana Jones flicks to detail our fedora-clad hero's international travels? Now you can have them on your fridge. The Mapnetic Magnet Set ($22) comes complete with dotted lines, dry-erase labels, and a handful of other goodies.
The country is just so darned big - and the notion of making an impact on that level is more than a little overwhelming. Waving your state flag, however, is a great way to feel relevant. (Voting is a better way, but hey.) And what better way to show a little pride than with one of these State Pendant Necklaces ($125)?
