Looking for a quality microphone

I'm looking for a quality microphone for a friend who streams on Twitch and I'm having a difficult time finding one that she likes. She's very much into aesthetics and says she wants one that is retro and looks cute. She linked this http://www.amazon.com/NEAT-Widget-Desktop-USB-Microphone/dp/B015NBV4DW/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1455595251&sr=8-3&keywords=neat+mic and this http://www.amazon.com/NEAT-Widget-Desktop-USB-Microphone/dp/B015NBV3JM/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1455595251&sr=8-5&keywords=neat+mic as reference but she wants it to be attachable to a mic arm. She also wants a retro style pop filter. Any suggestions? Budget of $150 for the mic, not including price of mic arm and pop filter.

Too bad, if she had an audio interface with XLR ports there are tons of very retro looking mics on the market.

 

Like this one for example, the MXL V67i

Or the MXL R144 Ribbon
