Modern hipster hauties will totally fall in love with anything by Hawaii-based Fighting Eel. Produced from a mutual love of fashion and vacation, the sexy modal dresses are casual but in a very sophisticated way (thanks to ultra-cool details). And while they’re not exactly what we'd normally refer to as affordable for the average bear, they aren't totally insane either. And now's the perfect time to treat yourself to making it through another year and another holiday season anyway. Plus, you're guaranteed to have the hippest New Year's Eve dress in town.

Scope out all of your dressy options at the drool-worthy Active Endeavors.

And from all of us at BussBuss, we wish you a very Merry Chrismukkah!

Lately we've been obsessed with anything mirrored or sparkly, in a Rat Pack/cocktail/1920s/French boudoir sorta way. Because we know all of those things are one in the same and all. Lots of glam, shimmer and decadence. 'Tis the season, right?

And we love that we can get a smidge of that vibe with these chic mirror coasters. They come in a perfect box for gift giving too, making them an ideal hostess gift this hoppin' holiday season. Pick up a set of four right here at CB2.

With all the hoopla surrounding Christmas, we nearly forgot about New Year's Eve. Party anyone? If you decide to throw a festive bash, or even just a low-key game night (our fave!), be sure to head to party supply site Plum Party. You'll find everything you need to make your shindig fabulous, like these funny New Family cups that read "Once Removed," "Step," "By Marriage" and so on.

Or, if you're heading to a gracious host's home, be sure to bring an unexpected hostess gift. These glasses would work, as would about a million other things, here at Plum Party.

We can't stop obsessing about this rad plaid top at Forever 21. We're total suckers for anything ruffly and love how this could easily go in a rock'n'roll direction when paired with the right accessories. What we're most floored by is that it's 100% silk.

Score your very own rad plaid silk blouse right here at Forever 21 (and order by midnight tonight to get free express shipping when you spend $75 or more).

Not to stress you out, but today is a big day in the world of online shopping. It's exactly one week from The Big Day and your last chance to score a great gift (at regular shipping costs anyway) from many online retailers. Instead of waiting any longer, PROcrastinator, and getting caught doing the masstasstic mall jam, have a gander at our insanely handy and, in our opinion, fabulous gift guides.

It's the end of yet another year, which means we're about to embark on a new one. That means new faces and new places. Be sure to have somewhere great to record them all in an awesome letterpressed Paper + Cup travel journal.

We heart the one with the bicycle the best, but you're free to choose your own mode of transportation (plane, train, automobile, boat) right here at the gorgeous Paper + Cup.

It's no secret how much we adore dresses around here and we're big fans of Edge of Urge. And while this champagne frock is technically a nighty night sleep slip, we can see dressing it up, perhaps with something black and lacy, and rockin' it for NYE. It also would look great under an Edge of Urge dawnie dress.

Play dress up right here at Edge of Urge.

{Speaking of champagne and frocks, don't forget to RSVP to our Fashion + Shopping Soiree tomorrow night!}

There's no better way to dress 'holiday' than with velvet and bows, subtly of course (leave that overdone embroidered sweater to Granny). These chic bangles from Josette are the perfect way to dress up and holidayize any ensemble, from that LBD you pull out for cocktail parties to your bootytastic jeans. Slip into one, or a whole stack, to add a dash of holiday hauteness to your wardrobe right here at Frosting Fashions.

This time of year is always filled with emotional extremes, from I've-had-too-much-to-drink gregariousness to I-needed-that-package-yesterday franticness. Which makes this Mood Alert pad all the more appropriate. It could save marriages and relationships, but most importantly, time.

Tell your cohabitant just how your day was and how you're feeling right here at Knock Knock.

Sometimes you just have one of those days – or weeks – or when it comes to the holidays, those months. For those times, we like to visit Subversive Cross Stitch. They make us smile (for others, they may simply offend, to which we say 'whatever').

Score a 'whatever' cross stitch kit, or your choice of many more snarky and hilarious kits, right here at Subversive Cross Stitch.

The ultimate stocking stuffer for that shoe-obsessed diva in your life, the Minisock takes your kicks from unitaskers to multitaskers. The brainchild of French designer Delphine Murat, these ingenious nylon and elastane blend sock-like accessories transform the look of any shoe, from your darling ballerina flats to those sky-high stilettos and wedges.

Make the most of your shoe wardrobe right here at Girlshop.

We're big fans of Kelly green, and it looks especially best in small splashes, like with this Bambina di Cioccolato Speranza Bag. It's so much more unexpected than basic black, yet is surprisingly versatile too – wear it with your mod shift and tights, frilly frocks or with your jeans and a casual top.

Treat yourself this holiday season with a darling new bag from Mighty Flirt here.

Keep flyaways in place on windy winter days -- or while cruising around in a convertible on your island escape this winter -- with a cool and uncommon headband by Aubrey Hyde. We love how each is hand-knitted and hand-dyed, plus we dig how the standout bow can take a drab outfit up several notches (perf for those days when you don't have a lot of time). All headbands come in a muslin bag with twill tape ties, making them a great and instant gift for girlfriends.

Check out the colors and find your fave right here at Stars and Infinite Darkness.
