Daily Obsesh – Orkney Mukluks

imageIt may not officially be winter yet, but we’re certainly in the winter state of mind! During the long winter months, nothing sounds much better than cuddling at home, snug under some blankets, with hot cocoa in hand and a chick flick on the television. Yes, it’s the season to be snug, comfy and cuddly.


It’s the time of year when running around the house barefoot just doesn’t cut it, and we’ve been find ourselves in un-matching, not so cute socks much too often. It’s seriously starting to cramp our loungewear style! Why splurge on the perfect pair of sweatpants without some cute socks to complete your outfit?!


We’ve found the perfect pair to keep our toes warm and our outfit stylish – the Orkney Mukluk by Eloise at Anthropologie. With the fair isle knit pattern and the ultra adorable pom pom ties, we definitely won’t be relegating these winter wonders to the couch only. Paired with a cute skirt, oxfords and a sweater, these socks are adorable!

Bag of the Week – Alexander Wang Darcy Slouchy Hobo

imageOften times, when we choose to splurge on a fabulous handbag, we go for the safest color. The most versatile, the one that allows you to say, ‘I can wear with anything.’ Usually, that means black. Black is beautiful, timeless and classic, but it’s black and probably similar to so many of the other purses you already have in your repertoire. Why not step outside the box this season and get super spendy on something slightly more eye-catching?


The Alexander Wang Darcy Slouchy Hobo in Mustard is the perfect piece. In a creamy chartreuse, this pebbled leather beauty is still as versatile as it’s basic black counter-part. It’s sure to add a pop of color to all the dark hues you’ve filled your closet with. Big and roomy with an over-the-shoulder strap, the hobo bag is embellished with brass hardware and etched over-sized studs at the bottom. So go ahead and get a little color crazy! You’ll find yourself using this more than you think!

Daily Obsesh – Edamame Growing Kit

imageLooking for the perfect present for your Secret Santa at the office party this year? If he or she happens to be a beer lover or sushi obsessed (and really … who isn’t?), we’ve got the perfect gift idea for you – The Edamame Growing Kit.


While they may simply be soybeans to us, edamame are considered beer lovers’ best friends in Japan. Served at top local bars in Japan, the healthy legume is considered the apropos compliment to a glass of suds. And of course, they are as common at sushi restaurants as bread is for an Italian eatery.


And now your office-mate can grow his or her own with this handy little kit. Complete with a beer glass vase, seeds and a wicker basket, all the grower really needs is some fresh water and a sunny spot! Perfect for the kitchen or the office! No Secret Santa to worry about? This also makes a great stocking stuffer!

Chic Sweater Dresses For A Sleek Cocktail Look!

imageI don’t know about you, but when I think ‘sweater dress’, I automatically think of a slouchy knit creation (perhaps designed more for comfort than standout style), perfect to throw on over a pair of leggings and boots for a comfortable look that doesn’t look like you just slept in it.


Maybe it’s not your go-to dress-to-impress outfit, but definitely stylish in that effortless sort of way, and certainly more on the casual end than, say, evening wear. However, believe it or not, this season’s sweater dresses are stepping it up a few dozen notches in the direction of ‘upscale’, with the help of show-stopping sequins, dramatic details like ruffles and beading, and sexy figure-hugging silhouettes that you normally might not find on your average knitwear piece!

Daily Obsesh – CB2 Grip Bookends

imageLooking for an inexpensive way to add a bit of an industrial design to your home or office? The CB2 grip bookends are a simple and subtle way to get that downtown, loft-like feel in any space in your home.


These hand cast iron tool clamps are both unique and useful. Use them as bookends or even on their own as ‘found object’ art pieces. The slim C clamps will fit on most shelves and desks, but while extremely sturdy, these old school tools are also very heavy. Make sure to attach them to an equally sturdy mount!

Shoe of the Week- Aldo Tauret Wedge

imageWe spotted desert boots on fashionista’s here and there over the summer, and the colder months certainly haven’t slowed the velocity of this trend. No big surprise considering that the desert boot is basically a slouchy, rugged, ‘borrowed from the boys’ cousin to the insanely trendy oxford. We’ve been seeing the classic menswear suede lace-up interpreted for the girls in different ways – such as the classic flat coming in some not so classic colorways, some with staggeringly high platforms and heels, and others with feminine bow accents. But our favorite has to be the desert boot wedges, like the Aldo Tauret. The crepe wedge on the Tauret adds a feminine twist without losing the utilitarian soul (or should we say sole?) of the desert boot. Available in both beige and black, these wedges will look great paired with your winter sweaters and scarves and will carry you through to spring where they will look just as cute paired with a floral dress and jean jacket.

Daily Obsesh – Rococo Molten Lava Nail Polish

imageOne of the best parts of the holiday season are all the festive holiday parties and the fun outfits us ladies get to wear to them! Whether it’s a cocktail hour or company shindig, dressing for the holidays is all about the glitz, the glamour and the glitter.


However, it’s easy to get caught up in the spirit of the season and overdo it just a little. Our rule of thumb is, if there is glitter on your dress, there shouldn’t be glitter on your face. But your nails? Well, that’s another story entirely.


This year, we€™re putting our red polishes on the shelf in favor of Rococo’s Molten Lava nail polish. This liquid gold color is the perfect holiday shade to compliment your sequined duds and add a little sparkle to your LBD’s. Better yet? We’re keeping this polish on hand (pun most definitely intended) to use again during Summer 2011 … we can€™t think of a better color to pair with our future tans!
