Short Wool Coat- Outerwear has never been more chic. Warm and fashionable at the same time? Why, YES! Check out trendy peacoats, capes and bold color.
Latest Denim- The jean's the thing! Cleaned up and cool as ever. Count on color, innovative washes, top stitching and back pocket interest to get your attention.
Designer Handbag- Raise your cool quotient in no time flat. The leathers are lush, the details are defined, the options are endless.
Something Fur- Vests, jackets, mufflers and more – indulge in luxury. Faux or the real thing, glamour begins here. Layer, layer, layer.
Boots, Boots, Boots- Add the edge to any look with the season's most important add-on. At the ankle, over the knee or anywhere in between. Maybe all three!
Soft Wrap Robe- This is the gift that makes relaxing in style a must. Soft, cuddly, irresistible.
A Classic Fragrance- As important as any accessory, the perfect fragrance complements and completes every look. Try classic aromas with warmer, heavier tones such as a musk and winter florals that can stand up to the cooler weather. Consider giving your stylish friends gift sets of classic fragrances.
