We’ve featured Naturalizer’s Lennox heel on here a few times before, and these shiny taupe ones are best sellers at Zappos, with 629 positive reviews — not bad for an affordable heel ($79). Amazon has lucky sizes (in off-season colors) marked as low as $27, though — fyi! Naturalizer Lennox Pump (L-3)

Coffee Break: Kate Spade Umbrella
I recently saw this kind of umbrella referred to as Her Majesty’s Umbrella, and I’m loving this fun, hot pink take on it from Kate Spade (nearly sold out everywhere else it’s available).

Coffee Break: Alexis Bittar Maldivian Necklace
My obsession with Alexis Bittar continues with this necklace, which looks delicate yet statement-y at the same time. The necklace is a bit of a splurge for a lot of plated hardware and non-precious stones, though: $595. Alexis Bittar Maldivian Necklace with Green Stones (L-2)
