Style Resolutions

2008 stretches out ahead like a clean slate- there's something about New Year's Day that makes us feel like anything is possible. Check out some of our style resolutions for 2008 here- we're going to be chicer, more social, and much more. See you next year!

Countdown to 2008

Our hometown (NYC) hosts the world's biggest New Year's Eve party- and we think it's totally appropriate to dress up for the occasion! Sparkle like the Swarovski crystals on the ball that drops in Times Square with some of the New Year's looks we've put together- whether your style is flirty, boho, or classic, we've got a celebratory outfit for you that's high on style AND shine.

O Cabochon, O Cabochan, How Prettily You Sparkle

Getting fancied up for holiday fêtes is always fun, and since cocktail rings are 'so hot right now' we thought we'd plug Sheila Fajl's luminous chalcedony cabochon ring here. It's got all the weight of an heirloom or vintage piece, but the brushed gold setting gives it a modern edge. Plus, there are sweet star cutouts below the setting, which aren't visible to everyone, but we think it's sweet to have secret details that make you smile.

Add a Scarf!

What do you do when the mercury drops and you still want to look fabulously stylish (but warm, too)? Add a scarf! Extra long scarves are invading seemingly every hip NYC's woman's wardrobe; we're seeing them EVERYWHERE and they seem to be the perfect cold weather foil. Anna Kula's delicious cable knit and patchwork scarves are knit from the softest merino and come in lovely colors- from base neutrals to sunny brights. As we await an impending winter storm here on the East Coast, we're thinking that the addition of a chic scarf is going to keep us on track for all our holiday outfit plans.

All I Want for Christmas is Bling!

Zoe Chicco's gorgeous stacked set of rings were featured in the NY Times Sunday Styles section yesterday. The easiest way to drop the hint? tear out the page and fold into a briefcase/handbag/desk drawer, so whoever is gifting you will be surprised to see it- and think it was their idea!

Party Circuit

This time of year is special because it generally offers more opportunity to get dolled up and hit the town- we created some great 'holiday party' looks for the Ravinstyle girls, because it's always easier to have someone else put your look together, isnt it?

Wish List!

If you're too polite to ask for what you REALLY want for Christmas, a wish list is the perfect covert way to put all the trinkets you desire in the hands of those stumped for what to get for you.
