If It’s Tuesday It Must Be Amsterdam
February 2nd, 2009
Marie wouldn’t need one of these “Wallpaper Travel Guides” to this beautiful city, but for those of us who didn’t spend our formative years flitting from continent to continent, this is perfect. Compact enough to fit in your pocket (so you don’t look like a gawky tourist) it has everything you need , plus a city at a glance aerial cardboard foldout , which comes in very handy.
Fetish

Wrap it Up
November 12th, 2008
We just adore the Amy Butler design line, from her fabrics, to the charming “Sweet Life Bags”, to the gorgeous stationary and now her new eco party wrap and gift cards. Made of 100% post-consumer recycled prudcts, you’re only problem is going to be deciding on a pattern. Myself, I’m torn between “Petal” and “Water.” MORE…
Stella, Stella, Stella!
October 22nd, 2008
Aren’t these just to die for, daaaarlink? Stella McCartney’s wedge ankle boots would look as as good with a dress as dress-up jeans. $1,395 but think of it as an investment, and a better one than most stocks these days.
2 Cool Rings
October 17th, 2008A Little Bubbly
October 17th, 2008
What is life without a some bubbly? Not just the Veuve Clicquot you have stashed ( do we know our readers or what?) but also this stunning Bubble necklace from designers Marina and Susanna Sent, available at the MoMa store.
The Italian sisters belong to a family which has worked for generations in Murano, the ancient center for the production of Venetian glass, but put a contemporary spin on the cluster of glass bubbles necklace, which sparkles with reflected light. For those of us of less than Amazonian height, there is a petite version, which is equally sparkly.
