I’ve always thought my New York City taxi ring needed a few accessories.
I finally found some! You can get these 1980s vintage Moschino shoes on 1stdibs.
I also found a taxi purse at a store called The Wind in the Willows in Naples, Fla.
I was a big fan of The Wind in the Willows book when I was a kid. Mr. Toad of Toad Hall was my favorite character. My sister didn’t feel the same way because during a trip to Disney World when she was very little, Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride scared her half to death. Today, in a much less frightening toad/frog moment, I posed my Frog and Prince ring on a real lily pad.
I always thought it was great that in that book characters are simply known as “Mole” and “Rat” and “Mr. Badger.” It made it all very clear.
UPDATED TO ADD: Thanks to commenter Marguerite for pointing out Kate Spade’s taxi collection.
Cute, but my heart belongs to the Moschinos!

Kate Spade did a taxi collection a few months ago as well.

Your taxi ring sure gets around town!! Oooh, those shoes! Of course they’re Moschino. Adore. Are you insane putting that gorgeous ring on a lily pad?? What if it fell in… my heart stopped just looking at the photo!

Oh! The ring was in a smallish pot my father had on the lanai, not in a pond!
