November 18, 2004 : Ear Today, Warm Ear Tomorrow

November 17, 2004 : Hugs and Hugs
|
Every girl deserves a hug, and rather than risking arrest by obtaining one from the next stranger you see, we suggest slipping into a yummy, soft cashmere sweater instead. Like a perma-hug, cashmere is luxurious, cuddly and, in this case, rather affordable. Marked down from $240 to $79.95, slip into a hot pink hug, or opt for red, grey, ivory, yellow, orange or aqua at bluefly.com.

November 11, 2004 : Zelda Style
|
Tick tock goes the holiday clock. First the Salvation Army Santas appear, then "Jingle Bells" saturates the airwaves, and bam, before you know it you'll be panicking about what to wear to all those holiday parties you've been invited to. Goodness, you're so friggin popular you make Paris Hilton look like a nun. But you can't spend a fortune on every dress. Which is just one reason we love this knockout number at Newport News. Besides the reasonable price tag of $69, the embroidered beauty makes us see visions of flappers dancing in our heads. And that we like. Perhaps it's the drop waist, or the lace detail. Whatever it is we're gonna toss on some strappy and sparkly heels and slippadyslide into this doozy of a dress at newport-news.com.

November 10, 2004 : Grumpy and Glam
|
Recently, someone who claims to love BussBuss, but who in reality is very, very cruel, has been making BussBuss wake up pre-noon (the horror!). BussBuss just wants its bottle and to go back to bed, yet she can't. She must persevere, grumpy, moody, sleepy and all. And to warn the rest of the world of her…well, let's just say "disposition," she's oh so glad she can just pop out one of these sassy compact mirrors that proudly proclaims "Grumpy Girl." To let the world know you're a Grumpy Girl, or Geeky Girl, Good Girl or Glam Girl, throw down a $10 spot at uncommongoods.com.

|
Spare change? Loose baubles? Tiny pills that get you through the day?

At just $2 each, they're nearly as cheap as an actual fortune cookie, and much longer lasting. Grab a handful for you and your friends, or for your friends' holiday gifts, at melange4women.com.

November 08, 2004 : Sunny Daze

November 05, 2004 : The Weekend Buss: Bootin' Up
|
The long hunt for the perfect pair of everyday boots is over, at least here in BussBussland. These Rockports satisfy all of our needs: low heel for comfort but just the right amount of heel to boost our um, rear assets, thick enough sole for walking around all day without being clunky, the right height for jeans and skirts, not too skinny or wide at the top so our calves aren't swimming in them or being suffocated, plus that added Western edge for kicks. And, as always, we love that shipping is free and, if for some reason we have to return them, return shipping is on the house as well. Thanks, Zappos, thanks. Your boots await for $143 at zappos.com.

November 04, 2004 : Lady Love
|
Our favorite shop in Florida, Purple Peach, has just given us another reason to love them: shop owner Catherine Ellis's debut line of clothing. The undoubtedly feminine frocks make us wanna cross our legs and maybe even curtsey. This lady-in-waiting can't wait to get her well-manicured hands on the flirty A-line ruffled grey plaid skirt with darling pink ribbon trim. Nab an original for yourself for $75 at purplepeach.us.

November 03, 2004 : Handmaid by Michelle Frantz
|
Wow. Just yesterday we were lusting after Handmaid by Michelle Frantz's yummilicious bags. But the $220 price tag was a bit much to swallow. Lucky for us, we're shopping whores and found the same bag for only $149 on bluefly.com. Once again, addiction pays off. That price is just right for a "special friend" to score us one for Christmas. Hint, hint. The only problem now: magenta or purple?

November 02, 2004 : Let's Get This Party Started
|
The holidays are coming up, which means more than your fair share of shindigs and way more than your fair share of family time. When conversation hits a sour -- or quiet -- note, or Aunt Margie feels the need to tell you, yet again, all about how brilliant cousin Carl is because he no longer wets himself, save the day by busting out Table Topics Conversation Cards. A stylish and mod table centerpiece, the 4"-sqaure acrylic box contains 138 great questions that help get the dialogue flowing, such as "What's more important, intelligence or common sense" and "What personal trait has gotten you in the most trouble?" A great holiday and hostess gift, you can save the day for just $23.99 at target.com. Speaking of great conversational lubricants, have you voted today? Tell us all about it, and what you wore to the polls (that's sarcasm, but whatevs), on our new and beloved Message Boards!
