Sometimes a girl just needs a break. So giver her (or yourself) one with this darling time out kit. Included in your pamper-me kit? An aromatic and therapeutic blend of lavender, flaxseed and buckwheat; a satin pillow for your chest that reads "Breathe"; a satin pillow for your eyes that says "Slumber"; and, a matching door hanger that reads "Hush." Just heat or chill the pillows to release healing properties and fragrance and to kick back and unwind. Covers are even removable for easy washing, too. So there's no need to stress about de-stressing. Pick up a kit for your own sanity for just $24.99 (originally $45) at redenvelope.com.

For breezy summer nights and easy transitions into autumn, a pashmina is hard to beat. Always chic, always versatile (who wouldn't rather use her pashmina as a blankie or pillowcase on a flight rather than the issued ones?), pashminas are always a winner. Wrap up in your own deluxe blend of cashmere and silk, in sand, raspberry, lavender, pink, green or blue, for $59.99-$69.99 (originally $275) at Overstock.

Sometimes, when the world seems so ugly, it helps to surround yourself with pretty things. And since most of us won't be hanging out with any of the Kates any time soon (Hudson, Bosworth, Moss, Holmes, just to name a few), may we suggest starting with your footsies? These deliciously dark chocolate heels are perfect for fall (yes, it really is right around the corner already!). In sexy suede and patent leather, with rich velvet and gold metallic accents, we're head over heels for these, um, well, heels. Add a little pretty to your life with the Franco Sarto Proud (top) or the Franco Sarto Cirio (bottom), each $88.95, at shoebuy.com. And as a pretty perk, get free shipping and free return shipping too. Plus, with this link, get $5 off your order of $50 or more -- just enter code 'BUY5' at checkout!

Stay cool, comfy and chic with a pair of gauchos this sweltering summer. Pair with your fave wife beater, or a haute wifebeader, and then slide into some flops or wedges and you're ready to cruise town comfortably and stylishly all day long. The best part? Come fall, you can rawk them with boots and a blazer and you'll be just as chic as you were in the summer of '05. From the cool brand LA Made, they're available in red, black and army green for just $38 at Luv Charlie.

The whole organic and natural thing is big this season (as if you didn't notice the deluge of wooden jewelry around you). We think this cardigan is swell because it gives a nod nature's -- and trend's – way with its cool bamboo accents, without being over the top or too trendy, plus it elevates the standard ol' black cardy to a chic new level. Adopt one of your own for $39.95 at bluefly.com.

Fab florals always look fresh for summer, and this vintage-inspired frock is no exception. Pair with flats or get funky and toss on your cowboy boots -- either way, you'll be ready to frolic through the tulip fields in a snap. Slip into this aqua and teal dress for $88 at anthropologie.com.

Designer divas, now you can get your shop on, and save some serious dough, at Saks Fifth Avenue's 50% Off Sale. If BussBuss were buying, she'd nab this cool Marc by Marc Jacobs leather racer hobo (was $248, now $173.60) and these sky-high lemon Jimmy Choo heels (was $460, now $160.95). Of course, she'd also wanna load up on haute tops and skirts, but she is in the business of practicing restraint after all (that is until she wins the 'I Want To Be a Hilton' contest!). Til then, check out all the yum finds at saks.com. Sale ends July 17.

If you like your vintage served fresh (re: love the vintage look, but can't get past the fact that other peeps have worn it), then join us for an 'oohing' and 'aahing' of this cool denim blazer. It has stretch so it's comfy, and the hip deconstructed look will take you straight from cool summer nights to chilly autumn afternoons. Score it for $78 at dELiAs.

BussBuss lurves the hip and the haute, but there's one thing we're even bigger suckers for, and that's the sweet. We're head over flats for the darling tees by supermaggie (you know, the Brooklyn-based designer who put flower pins and super scarves on the fashion map). We like the Moth in Clouds tee for $24, but are hung up on a bunch of others too (think love birds, bunnies, flowers). And there are a handful of lovely tees on sale for only $16, too. Get your dose of sweetness at supermaggie.com.

Okay, BussBuss has a deep, dark embarrassing secret that she's ready to purge. Are you ready for this jelly? BussBuss can't use chopsticks (gasp!). Her severe lack of coordination has lead to many restless and anxious dinners, where she's either resorted to using a fork (say it ain't so!) or, yup, her hands (eew!). Which is why she nearly did a back flip when she found these cool and colorful clothespin chopsticks. Spring-loaded to help the incompetent like BussBuss eat in sheer style, these clever chopsticks also make fun conversation pieces and are a bargain at just $3.95 each at gawd's gift to affordable and hip design, cb2.com.

Oh, Tom. Oh, Katie. Why do you doeth so? Whatever your insane reasons Tom (BussBuss mos def is a hater and doesn't believe Tom's lurve is real), can't you just leave Katie alone? Feel like Tom's brainwashed Katie, too? Get into the Fouth of July spirit of freedom by sporting this hilariously cheeky Free Katie shirt by Jake's Dry Goods. Show your love of freedom for $35 at Olive and Bette's.
