Made in New York by the ever talented Tara St James, this t-shirt is organic, U.S.-made cotton and is dyed by hand in Brooklyn. Plus, it’s limited edition so you won’t see every last fashionista donning this edgy top–unless, of course, they are one of the lucky fifty people to snag it. ($78 at Of a Kind)

Dirty Librarian Chains’ charming necklace is one of 26 made in Brooklyn from copper-, silver-, and gold-plated beads from the sixties and eighties that are paired with gold- and silver-plated vintage chains. It’s feminine–dainty, even–and yet it has a hard-rock, industrial edge to. The result: an overall pleasing and balanced aesthetic. ($120 at Of A Kind)

Lina Rennell’s hand-printed and sewn organic cotton tote is sure to excite bag envy from anyone caught schlepping a slew of small bags–it’s not called the “Catch All” for nothing. Made stateside in California, this bag can function both as an every day bag and as a long weekend tote. ($98 at Of A Kind)
