Happy SATC: The Movie day, dahlings! Doesn't it feel like a national holiday?

Like many of you, we're so excited to see The Movie and have been trying to avoid spoilers with the dedication and intensity of an eight-year-old trying to avoid lima beans, but are hesitant the film will ruin the entire series for us. We love our vintage Sex and the City, thank you very much.

The clothes. The shoes. The bags!

Speaking of the bags, we always loved the sweet cableknit clutch Carrie...well, carried in a few episodes. It was a little off-kilter, a little vintage, a little sweet and a whole lotta chic -- just like her.

Want one for yourself?

Head to Margaret Nicole, the independent designer label who started the whole trend (must be flattering to then be knocked off by all the major fashion houses).

While there, scope out the charming clutchettes, too. It's a fab way to get a lot of style in a little package -- plus, they make such great gifts for the fave girlfriends in your life.

Take a peek!

Got a grad in your life that you want to gift, gorgeous?

Hook her up with a playfully chic Lauren Merkin business card case or laptop sleeve.

Since it's important to dress the part of the job you want and not necessarily the job you have, you'll be setting her up for success -- or, at the very least, making her the envy of all of her friends.

Which, let's face it, is sometimes just as rewarding.

Small is the new big. At least when it comes to handbags.

Seriously, we girls will sacrifice a lot for the sake of fashion, but scoliosis shouldn't be one of them.

Which is why we've fallen hard for these Lolli by reincarnation chain clutches.

Pick from a slew of lambskin hues, then opt for either a silver or gold chain. The fab part is that the chain is so thin, yet durable, and looks like it could be a necklace. Making it perfect for going out at night and being hands-free, or for running around the city and having plenty of hands free for shopping and your latte -- or milkshake.

Just pop in your essentials: phone, credit card, lipgloss, keys and you'll look vintage glam in a snap and, more importantly, be super comfy too.

Please pardon our last-minute publishing vacay the past few weeks. BussBuss was in New York scoping out new designers to bring your way. Look out for these new finds in upcoming DailyBuss installments. And now, on with today's fabulous find...

Love the whole ballerina look, but not up for donning a tutu, twinkle toes?

Ditto.

Which is why we're loving New Orleans-based jewelry designer dejarnette's latest ballet collection.

Elegantly avant-garde, we love the mix of antique and vintage found materials with gray organza and soft pink pleated chiffon ruffles.

And since we didn't get to attend the ABT Opening Night Gala last week (we opted for Avenue Q instead -- and highly recommend it if you like to laugh non-stop), this will let us get our ballet fix for a bit.

P.S. In celebration of their second birthday, now through May 31, 2008, buy two pieces of jewelry and get a third piece of jewelry of equal or lesser value for free!

As much as we love pristinely manicured nature, we're getting a little tired of hearing "green" all the time. Unless someone's slipping some in our wallets.

So we were a little jaded when we heard about yet another company making reusable bags to take the place of plastic bags in the grocery store.

How many tote bags can a girl have, after all?

Several more it turns out.

Meet Neela, a new company started by two girls like us who wanted to be kind to the environment, but were intimidated by what they thought that meant.

Luckily, they figured out that with even small changes such as using their cute reusable bags in place of paper or plastic for a year, you could save nearly 1000 bags from certain death in a landfill near you.

We love all the brilliant colors, prints, sizes and styles and can't get over the fact that they start at just $5 each.

Still looking for an ah-mazing Mother's Day gift and feel like splurging on the lady who gave you a fab life?

Consider the Kindle.

If Mom loves to read books, the newspaper, magazines or even blogs (wow -- she's rad), this will blow her Crocs off. It's Amazon's wireless reading device and is about the size of a book. You don't have to hook it up to a computer for it to work or anything. And it works on the same network as advanced cell phones, meaning you don' t have to find a hot spot to download new books.

Our favorite highlights?

It holds up to 200 titles, so when you travel (whether to an exotic island or just to work), you no longer have to lug your reading material with you, saving you from shoulder and back pain (when your porter isn't available that is).

Because it's paperless (obviously), it's totally green, saving lots of trees. We love trees!

No more ink smudges on your hands from newspapers or mags!

Unlike a laptop, it doesn't get hot.

There are no service plans or wireless bills. Once you buy it, you're set.

The battery can last for a week!

Best of all, you'll make Mom the coolest soccer mom on the block.

Plus, if she ends up not being able to convert from her old-school ways, you can totally steal it!

Happy Cinco de Mayo! Go ahead and enjoy those calorie-laden margaritas and that deelish guacamole because it's easier than ever to look 10 lbs. slimmer without actually exercising or dieting -- whew (because that sounds tres horrific)!

How?

By making the belt your new BFF.

Why?

Because the waist is back.

Worn with dresses, blouses, even over jackets and sweaters, defining your waist actually makes you look slimmer and more feminine (hello, instant hour glass).

We like styles both wide and slim -- just be sure to accentuate the positive by ignoring your belt loops and hips. The trick to that slimming, oh-la-hourglass effect is to wear your belts high, right under your ribcage (the smallest part of your waist).

Where to score tons of chic belts from designers like Michael Kors, Linea Pelle, Kooba and more marked down to really great prices?

Right here.

P.S. Remember, Mother's Day is this Sunday! Not to fret -- we've done the work. Shop our Top 10 Mother's Day Gift picks here!

Some moms love the classics and delight in receiving flowers on Mother's Day. If that sounds like your Mom, take advantage of Martha Stewart's perfectly perfect taste and send her Martha Stewart flowers, so you know they'll live up to the highest of standards (plus, get $10 off orders of $59.95+ with code MARTHA10 or $25 off orders of $119.95 with code MARTHA25 at checkout through May 31, 2008). For something a little out of the ordinary, we love the Chamomile and Rose bouquet in a fab faux bois vase.

Some moms, like ours for instance, like flowers as much as the next girl but are more practicality-oriented and would prefer something that lasts a little longer.

Which is why we've come up with our list of...Top 10 Mother's Day Gifts.

Take a peek!

We love things in multiples (mind outta the gutter, ladies).

And we heart things with cute names.

Which likely explains our growing obsession with glassybaby.

Candy-colored glass votives that can double as mini vases with names like Lamb, First Kiss, Tutu, Lollypop, Orangesicle and Rootbeer? Sold.

Perfect for weddings and gifts (hello, Mother's Day), each handmade glass looks gorgeous on its own, with a candle inside or with flowers peeking out.

Beware the prices are… pricey, but good things come in small packages and these are little works of art you'll want to adopt. Over and over again.

True devotees can even sign up for three, six or 12-month subscriptions.
