I'm not much of a prepster, but I've always appreciated the graphic goodness of argyle. The diamond checkerboard pattern has a unique three-dimensional quality that's simply eye-catching. But, don't get any ideas: I won't be sporting an argyle sweater vest any time soon.

I've got to admit I think the Invisible Bookshelf ($10, reduced from $15) is one of the most clever inventions I've seen all year. But I'm really also digging its nearly invisible price tag! Although it looks like a magical illusion, there's actually nothing tricky to the bookshelf.

There are a variety of leaning bookcases out there in the home décor world, some of which would make a great desk for a small bedroom. But why shell out $399 for one when you can pay $99? The JCPenney 35" Wide Leaning Bookshelf ($99) is a pretty fab steal, made of engineered and solid wood with an outlet price.

Perhaps inspired by my own color-coordinated bookshelves, TeamSugar member Citygal decided to give her Ikea EXPEDIT bookcase a major overhaul of color!In under half an hour, her personal library was transformed from sloppy to sophisticated. She chose to go the rainbow route, beginning with red-toned books at the top, then to greens, blues, pinks, and finally whites and blacks at the bottom. Considering that her personal interests on her profile read "television, writing, books," it's no wonder that she's got a great collection — so why not show it off?

When you've got storage like the Vitra Kast Tall Storage ($10,695), even your Encyclopedia Brittanica collection can look sexy — all the way from aardvark to zygote. The modular unit has a shelf and wall cupboard combination with colorful sliding doors. Although there's a lot going on with the color palette (pink, dark green, bronze grey, dark blue, sulphur yellow, and bright white), the clean lines and perfect proportions of the unit give it a restrained look that's elegant and distinguished.
