The holiday season is right around the corner and that means all the holiday parties/new years celebrations to attend!  It’s time to find that perfect evening dress to stand out, feel beautiful, and look your best.  Make it YOUR party!

You can’t go wrong with a little black dress.  Audrey Hepburn’s classic black dress from the film Breakfast at Tiffany’s is still iconic and timeless.  For a more romantic & feminine look, go for a ruffled or tiered dress.  They add texture and movement… my favorite is a chiffon tiered dress.

Add more zing to your dress by wearing bold accessories.  Throw on a chic fur jacket, gloves, and a clutch… be prepared to turn heads!

We all LOVE those infamous UGG boots… well, I do.  I like the short ones in particular. They look adorable folded over jeans. I know there are many of you that want to own a pair of UGG boots yet simply can’t afford them. 

I found a nice alternative for short UGG boots and luckily they are on sale now at 6pm.com for $29.95 (was $60)!!!  I like the fact that is still made with genuine leather suede/wool. 

Yes, nothing is really compared to UGG’s reputation but why not a close alternative for much cheaper?

The statement boot of the season!  Besides the amazing purple color, the Chloe’s Paneled Purple Boots offer exquisite craftsmanship.  Don’t you love the patchwork?  The uneven paneling and sharp edges add a modern touch.  The mix of patterns is also brilliant - croco-embossed, patent leather, and suede.

I’d wear these year round even in the summer time with my shorts/blouse.  Go ahead… put your best foot forward… work it girl!

Chloe Paneled Purple Boots $895

Pamper yourself or your guests with the bliss sinkside six pack ($25) from NY’s hottest spa.  A perfect gift and a great way to sample Bliss products.  You might find yourself getting hooked with these travel size beauty products… like I did.

What I love about this pack is the refreshing, clean lemon scent especially the face wash which leaves my face squeaky clean… a morning pick-me-up!  I use the Soapy Sap as a bubble bath and it leaves my bathroom smelling fantastic!  I have one pack in the guest bathroom and one for the road.  Can’t live without!

The set includes: lemon + sage body butter, soapy sap, supershine shampoo, conditioning rinse, soap, and fabulous foaming face wash.

A quick way to fancy up your gifts - Lace Tape.  The black lace would look so pretty against red wrapping paper and white lace against pink.

The black & white lace tape below are designed by Stella Bugbee and available for $10 each.

Perfume & phone in one - Samsung Lavender is a new concept phone created by Andrew Kim (16 yrs old… wow).  This unique cell phone will be a big hit for those who want the cell phone as a fashion accessory… if it ever becomes available.  The violet bottle, I mean the phone, looks like a sleek perfume bottle that actually dispenses a lavender fragrance.

Some of the features include - mulitmedia touch screen, “Starlight LED’s” that blink in the dark, and the coolest feature is that you can see the fragrance liquid in the background of the user interface which is an indicator for the battery life!  Cool, huh!

As visually pleasing as this phone is, I’ll stick with my iPhone… I want my phone to be a phone not a perfume bottle.  But if you want a stylish phone that smells wonderful, this is it.
