Do love jewelry as much as we do, but aren't exactly a fan of in-your-face glamazon bling?

Then you'll likely love Melissa Joy Manning's treasures as much as we do.

The California designer seductively melds the modern with the traditional, the rough with the pretty, the unexpected with the organic.

And if you happen to be a bride-to-be and are dreaming of a truly one-of-a-kind engagement ring, prepare to swoon (and remember, as Carrie Bradshaw proved in SATC, you can totally marry yourself to justify your acquisition).

While there are some beautiful necklaces and bracelets and we already have the engagement ring of our dreams, we're fawning like Bambi over the unusually spectacular stud earrings and standout cocktail rings.

Are you up for some new treasures?

Then, take a peek!

We've loved Jane Mayle ever since we dwelled in the same neighborhood as her fah-bu-lous Manhattan boutique.

But, we never could quite cough up the green to actually own any of the ah-mazing bags, accessories or clothing by the covetable designer.

Which is why we're SO excited to score this 60% off coupon code on her spring collection (thanks for the heads up Refinery29!).

We love the Circus Braid belt, originally $175, now just $70 with the code, as well as all of the bags. They're just so darling and different from everything else out there in Fashion Land.

Treat yourself before it's all scooped up. Simply enter coupon code maylss8 at checkout.

In need of a fabulous frock to knock the Loubies off of the most in-the-know fashion insiders (perhaps you're planning your NY Fashion Week wardrobe already...or just have an art gallery opening to attend)?

Indulge in a one-of-a-kind dress from Barcelona label Cocotte.

Based on the idea of a creative, independent, romantic woman with natural elegance and a strong sense of humor, we're loving the interesting cuts and playful details (pleating, copper, stud and chunky Swarovski crystal buttons, peter pan collars, golden grommets, puffy sleeves, to name but a few covetable details).

We're dying to own any of the dresses or skirts in the African wax cotton, but are also eyeing some of the softer solids.

To view photo inspiration, head to Cocotte's blog.

Or, to buy in a click (custom orders also available), shop Cocoette on Etsy.

We've gushed over Henry Road designer Paula Smail's groovy prints and colorful global style in the past and are so excited to see her latest collection of pillows, bags, aprons, tablecloths, runners, journals and more.

The poppy, colorful graphics put us in the mood to host a sun-drenched summer party with good food and friends. And that just makes us happy. And, really, isn't that what good design is all about?

We also love that we can get a dose of Henry Road on the go in handbag form, too. The totes are perfect for hopping and shopping around flea markets, rummaging through vintage stores for hidden treasures and traipsing the globe stylishly.

The best part?

Paula's giving BussBuss readers an exclusive 20% off with code BUSSHR20 at checkout through July 15, 2008.

Got a grad in your life that you want to gift, gorgeous?

Hook her up with a playfully chic Lauren Merkin business card case or laptop sleeve.

Since it's important to dress the part of the job you want and not necessarily the job you have, you'll be setting her up for success -- or, at the very least, making her the envy of all of her friends.

Which, let's face it, is sometimes just as rewarding.

If you enjoy sipping martinis in the parlor, poppin' collars, crests, tennis, argyle socks and the general country club lifestyle, then click your croquet-loving self on over to Gargyle, stat.

Born out of a love for early country club lifestyle, Gargyle aims to revive and modernize its spirit.

Think less Ralph Lauren and more Built by Wendy: younger, edgier, but still aspirational and supremely well-edited.

We're loving Valentine dresses, Samantha Pleet rompers, Giles & Brother jewelry, Lorick frocks (by the designer who ghost-designed Blair Waldorf's mom's collection on Gossip Girl -- that's a mouthful), United Bamboo and Rachel Comey shoes and Karen Walker sunnies.

There are lots of finds marked down hundreds of dollars, fitting our very non-country club budget.

Join the club here.

Most hotel shops are filled with overpriced touristy tschotkes, but W hotels are not like most hotels and neither are its stores.

We love Calypso for its worldly French-meets-beach vibe and on a recent trip to their online store, discovered they're having a lovely little sale.

With Valentine's Day just about a fortnight away, it's only fitting to dish about our love of New York-based boyfriend-girlfriend design duo Hayden-Harnett.

We've waxed poetic about the up-and-coming label in the past. First there were those bags, then those darling coin purses and accessories, then their debut apparel line.

Now we feel like we've fallen in love all over again with their latest clothing and accessories offerings.

Their use of French artist Paule Marrot's prints and artwork (Jackie O. loved Marrot as well, so we're in good company) is brilliant. From the dresses to the trenches to the bags, it all feels very Diane von Furstenberg in the '70s, but with a distinctly modern and unique twist. Think mod-safari chic.

One visit will have you feeling like jetting off to somewhere exotic and doing something different for a change. Like showing up to work on time (imagine that), this time with all eyeballs on your fab new look.

While checking out all the new goodies, be sure to scoop up some fantastic finds in the sale section. They're going fast, so make like a cheetah -- remember, it's a jungle out there.

Featuring bags, belts and jewelry by covetable cult labels like CC Skye, Foley + Corinna, Lorelei, Rachel Leigh, Yochi Design, Kenneth Jay Lane, Gorjana, Goldenbleu and more, among the pricier treasures, we found some great deals too.

We're loving these sparkly and girly yet sophisticated bracelets, earrings and necklace, all under $50.

We've long loved Austin-based Factory People for its hip mix of hard-to-find cult designers and lines like Sue Stemp and McQ by Alexander McQueen, among others.

And we especially love that right now everything on FactoryPeople.com is at least 25% off.

We're in love with Khoon Hooi's silk pleated dress (originally $200, now $50) and chiffon gathered top (originally $132, now $33).

We loved the original Zappos, the shoe site that also sold some handbags and became popular for their fab shipping and return policy: free shipping and free return shipping for 365 days.

But now we're over the moon. Why? Zappos now sells clothing too, including swimsuits. And yes, that same shipping and return policy applies. In fact, they now offer free overnight shipping on everything (seriously).

You know how we feel about instant gratification and it doesn't get more instant in the world of online shopping than free overnight shipping.

But we're most grateful that we never again have to face those horrid dressing room lights. There is a shopping god.

We're also loving Zappos Couture, which offers higher-end bags, shoes, accessories and clothing from Goldenbleu, Hollywould, Kate Spade, Cole Haan, Marc Jacobs, Sigerson Morrison, Costume National y muchas mas.

Indulge in free overnight shipping, and the fabulousness that is the future of online shopping, right here at Zappos.

{Dying to see the Haute Shop of the Week? Let's get it on, style lover!}

We must confess, BussBuss has quite the addictive personality (very La Lohan of us, we know). In fact, we've considered checking into rehab on more than one occasion for our addiction to milkshakes, vintage dresses and cupcakes, to confess a few.

But our latest obsession these days has been over the indie goodness that is Etsy. In case you've been shopping under a rock for the past year or two, Etsy is the spot to find handmade clothing, accessories, home goodies and gifts direct from the artists, crafters and designers themselves (from all over the world).

Think of it as a hipster Ebay, minus the stress of bidding. The best part? Everything is surprisingly affordable (no retail markup rocks!) and you can bookmark your favorite sellers and then browse by who their fave sellers are too. It's never-ending indie awesomeness.

Discover your faves, and prepare to join us in rehab, here at Etsy.

Recently we got a note from our friends across the pond letting us know they had opened up a brilliant new online gift shop featuring accessories, home goodies and more from some of the UK's freshest talent. At first click, we were in love. Kind of like the Mighty Flirt of the UK, the shop specializes in up-and-coming British-based designers. We're fawning over all the gorgeous prints-intense pieces like the bags, pillows and robes.

Find gifts for guys, kids, your home and, always most importantly, YOU, right here at the scrumptious Rockett St George (and yes, they ship to the US).

Even with Oprah's endorsement yesterday of Cole Haan heels with Nike Air technology, we know in our hearts (and toes) that flats will always be comfier. Which is really important to grasp in a city where you constantly walk everywhere. Plus, ballet flats are chic and timeless in an Audrey Hepburn kind of way, and she is our all-time style crush, after all.

Right now we're loving these spotted Jeffrey Campbell flats at the amazing shoe, handbag and accessories shop Plaza Too. We're also swooning over the cute leopard headband, Murval wallpaper tote and fabulous riding boots, not to mention the Viv & Ingrid and Alexis Bittar jewels.
