These retro-inspired lamps come in four fun, bright colors: pink, green, yellow, and white. Use them all in one color, or mix-and-match! They’re solar-powered, so there’s no fuss with batteries or plugs, and they can be used indoors or out (but you’ll want to bring them inside when your summer party is over).

I can’t say whether I like the grey and white chrysanthemum print or the long, lean silhouette of this plug-in lamp better, but I suppose it doesn’t matter, since really I don’t have to choose just one! In fact, I also adore the gold-hued background, and the silver and wood trim, too!
