I've been fawning over the Duffy London Glo Canvas ($339) ever since I included it in my Modern Marie Antoinette Get the Look back in September 2007. Unfortunately, it hasn't gotten any cheaper, and I'm reluctant to spend so much on a transient style. Luckily, I've just come across a much more affordable alternative.

Whitney Port's friend Erin on The City has a youthful, rock 'n roll style when it comes to her apartment décor. While her trendy accessories aren't exactly timeless, I think they're fun and appropriate for a young chica. I'm particularly smitten with her Gummi Bear lamp, and had to hunt one down for myself.

Adjusting to the suddenly dark evenings is a little rough for me, even though I truly enjoy and take advantage of the extra light in the morning. Lack of it makes me a little blue; does it do that to you, too? One way to perk up your mood is to increase the amount light you enjoy on a daily basis.

Switzerland-based product design consultancy Life Goods designed the Ceiling Light, which mimics the shape of a traditional ceiling medallion. I've always loved ornate ceiling medallions, so it's refreshing to see the design take on a different function. The design doesn't seem to be in production, but I'll be the first to get my hands on the clever luminary if it ever is.

I don't know what it is about butterflies lately, but they've had my heart all aflutter. The cutout butterflies on the Mixko Delight Belle Light ($49, reduced from $83) are quite dainty and appeal to the side of me that secretly loves pink, unicorns, and party dresses. And I love how the light just seems to peek through its skirted edge.

The Beau & Bien Smoon Ombrella ($1854) is a wireless and rechargable "light sculpture" for your indoor or outdoor space that acts a parasol in the day, and a lantern at night. But, to be honest, it looks more to me like an alien starship from It Came From Outer Space . .

I am totally falling in love with Suck UK's geeky-chic goods. Not only can they supply me with an old-school Mixed Tape USB Set that I can slip in my BF's bag to show him some love, but they can make me the queen of my castle with this totally hot Union Jack illuminated coffee table. I am seriously jonesing this thing.

The Mmckenna BettyLou Cordless Lamp ($275) is a cordless rechargeable lamp that sits on a wine glass and shines for over seven hours, until it needs to be recharged on its base. If you're a wino, this is probably right up your alley. But then again, you might be tempted to use the included glass to serve yourself some Sauvignon Blanc .
