A NEW (NAUTICAL) YEAR


It's the New Year! Time for a fresh start! Even though those half-glass-empty prediction analysts keep telling us that most resolutions don't last more than a week. Ignore them! You can lose 25 pounds, learn French, win a marathon, become an astronaut, and win the lottery - all by next month! And you should look great doing it. You should dress like you're looking to a new horizon. Or sailing off into the sunset. In other words:  now is the time for nautical style. New resort collections are everywhere, but my favorite is Ann Taylor. And won't the great prices help you save on that other resolution - budgeting?






LOVE this necklace! Talk about stylish boat bling!

A few final stripes from Australian Vogue...

WATCH ME - CHEAP AND CHIC

Isn't this sporty little watch cute? Very resort - and so fun thrown on with a few bangles. But I must say it looks slightly... familiar.


Oh yeah!


Introducing a brilliant little invention from HEX, the ipod nano watch band, $24.95 in a selection of  candy-fun colors. Don't forget to customize your ipod nano screen to match, as shown below. 

A great gift for techies or anyone who likes their music on the go (and what about stuffed in a stocking?).
