November 30, 2006 : Becky Oh!
|
MJ and LV are great and all, but if you like to be mysterious about your handbag's origins and keep them guessing, Becky Oh! bags may be for you. We love the big roomy size of the Intaglio bag, but how it slimly fits to the body -- deftly providing storage for a girl-on-the-go's essentials while not adding bulk to her frame.
Plus, all bags are made to order and are one of a kind -- portable couture with plenty of change left over to have something to put inside your new bag. Check out the selection of handbags, wristlets and more right here at Becky Oh!

November 28, 2006 : Commit to Not Committing
|
Commitment phobes who have always pondered getting a tattoo but are too ADD to stick to a design can make fantasy reality somewhat with these goth-esque nude tights. The black roses look like tattoos and add a double-take factor to any ensemble. Turn heads in a pair, and relish in the fact that you can simply slip them off when you tire of your new 'too, at hipster-friendly shop Chocosho right here.

November 27, 2006 : Baby Love
|
We must admit that before we actually had a super-close friend have a baby, the little things held no interest for us. Sure, they were cute, but so what? But now, especially after spending mucho tiempo with said adorable baby over T-day, we're gaga -- and finally get why seemingly trivial things are such big deals.
If you're in need of the perfect present for new parents, The First 1000 Days journal by Nikki McClure will make you and themhappy. Filled with beautiful cut-paper illustrations, with lots of room to chronicle baby's first big events, you can pick up a baby journal right here at Rare Device.

November 17, 2006 : Wrap It Up
|
We're loving this Lulu Guinness scarf and it makes a great gift too. Anything that doesn't have to fit makes a great prezzy and scarves and wraps are great because they're pretty ageless too (this would be just as great for someone who's 70 as someone who's 17). Plus, this one is 40% off here at Bluefly.
For more great gifts, check out our:

November 15, 2006 : Shoe La Love
|
In pursuit of even more darling holiday party dresses, we came across these amazing embossed leather flats at Anthropologie here. We are in love and want them in every yummy shade: tangerine, eggplant and graphite blue.
Plus, the tangerines would look really fresh with this sparkling satin dress and the eggplants paired with this ivory shift would be very unexpected at a holiday bash in a good way.
P.S. Need a fab gift for that hostess with the mostest, a coworker, pet, lil one, grandparents or fave family? Check out tomorrow's Holiday Gift Guide for Everyone Else, including great stocking stuffers too!

November 10, 2006 : Sweet Tooth
|
We feel no shame in saying that we can be unabashedly girly. In fact, more than once we have described our personal style aesthetic as being very champagne and lollypops in other words, glam meets girly. We like being fun and feminine, so it should come as no surprise that we think these clutches are adorably deelish. Especially the one that looks like a Hostess cupcake.

November 09, 2006 : Rockett St George

Recently we got a note from our friends across the pond letting us know they had opened up a brilliant new online gift shop featuring accessories, home goodies and more from some of the UK's freshest talent. At first click, we were in love. Kind of like the Mighty Flirt of the UK, the shop specializes in up-and-coming British-based designers. We're fawning over all the gorgeous prints-intense pieces like the bags, pillows and robes.

November 03, 2006 : Fall for Space Mermaid
|
We see a lot of work by up-and-coming jewelry designers -- far more than any other genre in fact -- so it takes something special to stand out and catch our style-hungry eyes. As you can probably guess from their name, Space Mermaid is something special. Equal parts quirky, whimsical, girly and cool, we really love this LA-based line of handcrafted jewelry. Inspired by the sky and the sea, creatures real and imagined, we're totally smitten with the vintage-inspired collection.
Particular faves include the Golden Leaves earrings and the necklaces featuring owls and seahorses. Find something special for you (and maybe that special friend, too) right here at Space Mermaid.
Special for BussBuss readers: Enter 'bussbuss20' in the message section upon checkout and save 20% on all necklaces, bracelets and earrings. Your discount will be refunded when your order ships. Expires 11/10/06.

November 02, 2006 : Meet Me at the Plaza
|
Even with Oprah's endorsement yesterday of Cole Haan heels with Nike Air technology, we know in our hearts (and toes) that flats will always be comfier. Which is really important to grasp in a city where you constantly walk everywhere. Plus, ballet flats are chic and timeless in an Audrey Hepburn kind of way, and she is our all-time style crush, after all.
Right now we're loving these spotted Jeffrey Campbell flats at the amazing shoe, handbag and accessories shop Plaza Too. We're also swooning over the cute leopard headband, Murval wallpaper tote and fabulous riding boots, not to mention the Viv & Ingrid and Alexis Bittar jewels.
Discover your own favorites to complete your fall look right here at Plaza Too. Plus, score free shipping on orders of $200+ to anywhere in the U.S.

November 01, 2006 : GO Behnaz
|
Target's latest GO International designer, Behnaz Sarafpour, is dishing out uptown chic at downtown prices. While we don't love all of the looks, there are a few we're coveting, such as the A-List Princess (big surprise!) and Skyline Nights. And we especially like the oversized lace duffle bag (would make a great gift too - wink, wink).
Scope out the looks and score the ones you love now (it's limited edition and tends to go fast). Shop Behnaz at Target right here.
