Old Navy Necklace $9.50

Back when I was a tot and my parents were social butterflies (they still are) my Mom used to sport jewelry like this. I thought she looked so glamorous (she still does). I still love the look, and I bet she paid the same price twenty years ago.

L.L. Bean Valentine Mini Tote $16*

Now I realize this faux-holiday is shamelessly commerical, but even for those without a sweetie it can still be a fun distraction from another boring Tuesday. (Chocolate, anyone?) If you’re not a fan of the mini-heart, check out the site for a million other sizes, patterns, and color combinations.
*Add $5 for monogram.

Forever 21 Pearl Evening Bag $24.80

This dainty bag reminds me of one that my Nona gave me a few years ago. (She’s the Sharp Lily after whom the site is named.) Anyhoo, it belonged to my great grandmother, and every time I wear it I get harrassed with compliments. (Even from guys, I swear.) If your Nona […]

There’s No Place Like Home Eco Bag $15*

This online boutique, run from Australia and featuring up-and-coming designers, is such a find. The offerings are so fresh and original, which means when you sport the stuff you must be prepared for an embarrassing amount of compliments for being such a fashionista. The site also gives interesting info about each designer, ships […]

Marc Jacobs Paris Address Undies $15

So if you can’t afford the bag or shoes you’ve been lusting after, give these undies a whirl. With the “Palais Royal” address on the back, at least your bum will feel special. (The one downfall is that the “one size fits all” sounds a little suspect to me.)
at Marc Jacobs Stores or […]

Day-lab “Diamond” Ring $10

Treat yourself to a couple of these little (acrylic) gems, as they’re perfect for stacking. They come in fun colors, a choice of thickness, and they’re the next (albeit distant) best thing to real bling.

American Eagle Sparkle Wristlet $9.95*

This teeny wristlet is great for carting just the evening’s essentials. That way you won’t be bogged down manuevering through crowds to get to the dance floor. Just do youself a favor and don’t wear it with the previously posted sparkly tank from Speigel. It might match, but you could be […]

Newport News Leather Clutch $25

It’s cute and it’s leather and it’s 25 small. That’s all you really need to know.

Alloy Velvet Flats $14.99*

I’m a sucker for bows, and I’m an even bigger sucker for shoes, so put them together and color me happy. Oh, and the fact that they cost less than a medium bucket of popcorn at the Times Square movie theatre? I can’t even touch that.
*Down from $22.

American Apparel Nylon Gym Bag $17

Sure, you could use this gym bag to cart around your sweaty gear. Or, you could fold it up in a little ball, pack it in your suitcase, and tote it on your next trip to Paris. Then you could bring home all the chocolate and shoes you purchase along the way. […]
