If you want to support disaster relief in Japan and emerging artists, a host of Etsy designers have committed to donating a portion of their sales to the cause. Here are some of our picks:
Eco-conscious line Kristinit has some great new items now available at Stanton James. We love these flowy, feminine silk pieces that capture spring's bohemian trend and can easily be dressed up or down. Asymmetrical cuts and neutral colors leave these tops and dresses ready for creative accessorizing and layering.
This sheer, pretty piece from contemporary brand Line & Dot is the perfect LWD (Little White Dress, if you haven't heard the term before) for spring. Pair it with feminine wedge heels and classic jewelry for dressy daytime events, or add some edge with chunky shoes and jewelry for hitting the town at night.
Since the tsunami and earthquake in Japan, many members of the fashion community have stepped up to donate profits and resources to relief efforts. For example, jewelry designer Suzanne Somersall of Kira Kira, who has a jewelry studio in Japan, is currently donating 20 percent of online sales to the Red Cross. Her beautiful Sakura collection, which is made in Japan, is both elegant and feminine. Pictured are the Crystal Rose Sakura Studs ($198), which are classic and perfect for spring.
We know Valentine's Day was last month, but that doesn't stop us from adoring this hearts charm necklace on Etsy. Each necklace comes with slightly different charms, so it's truly unique. Plus, at just $20 it's an affordable way to add a bright, fun accessory to your look for spring.
These cool earrings are made with real circuit boards and a swirl of copper wire. They are by Clone Hardware, a company based in Onatario, Canada that creates jewelry from upcycled computer electronics. These pieces will definitely make a statement!
Circa Sixty Three is an eye-catching collection of bright, fun statement jewelry inspired by the 60s and 70s. Made up primarily of vintage Lucite beads and bangles, all of the jewelry is handmade in Jacksonville, Florida. These retro-inspired pieces are perfect for adding a pop of color to your spring style! Prices vary based on rarity and style. Shop the collection online at circasixtythree.com. 
We became fans of Naven, which launched in 2007, because of the brand's fun, fresh take on bright colors. But this season's muted palette of nudes and blushes is just as cool. Here are a few styles we're coveting from the spring 2011 look book:
