What to Wear: Travel, Music and Art-Lover Gifts

Posted By: KK on 12/17/09 6:45 AM | Categories: What to Wear

KK: Planes, Trains or Automobiles – here are some gift ideas for all of the voyagers in your life. To start the trek, give a membership in Indagare a unique travel concierge for sophisticated travelers which provides exclusively curated online archives and customized booking services. Bon Voyage!

Alicia Adams Alpaca Wrap ($115), Indagare Membership, Tory Burch Nico Nylon Tote ($295), Frederic Fekkai Brilliant Glossing Travel Set ($43), Graphic Image Travel Clock ($84), Vivre Stamped Croc Journals ($85), Garmin eTrex GPS ($129.95), Crouch and Fitzgerald Tramontano Suitcase ($875), Cris Notti Sleep Mask ($20), Aspinal Travel Set ($160), Lonely Planet’s “The Travel Book: A Journey Through Every Country in the World” ($19.80)

GB: I can’t think of a better gift than to give something musical, no matter what sort of music fan you are.  Nab tickets for the opera aficionado to see perfect Puccini or gift this box set of Rolling Stones’ classics.  Karaoke and DJ Hero is ongoing amusement for the whole family while these two new books from Knopf will have Jazz and Rock lovers entertained for hours.




LG: My ideal gift to both give and receive will always be art!  I put together a selection of gifts with artists and art-lovers as my motif!  Why not pair (and unwrap) a ribbon-wrapped bangle to accompany Christo & Jeanne-Claude’s book on wrapping… Or a  skull-key chain with Damien Hirst’s book on how he made the notorious diamond skull!

For the art-enthusiast one can purchase limited edition jewelry by modern artists from great friend, Louisa Guinness’ Gallery.  Ah, the mere thought of wearing an Anish Kapoor on my finger… heaven!

What to Wear: Holiday Gifts

Posted By: KK on 12/9/09 6:00 AM | Categories: What to Wear

KK:  Haven’t started your holiday shopping yet, don’t fret!  We put together a selection of goodies, from the sublime to the extraordinary -  totally cool Jennifer Creel Sunglasses for Modo, luscious Josephine & Laurentina paisley cashmere scarf or drop a hint to your special someone for this Girls Guide to Paris shopping jaunt in January during the sales, when everything is 40-70% off!  Oh-la-la.
Walton Ford: Pancha Tantra Book (on SALE $44.10), Kindle ($259), Shopping Trip to Paris ($3,900) 10% off the trip if you mention W2WW,  MODO for Jennifer Creel Fisher Sunglasses ($325), Acqua di Parma Iris Nobile Shiny Body Oil ($81), Stubbs & Wootton HOPE Slipper ($197.50 with the Promo Code: GIFT), Marc Jacobs Wristlet ($168), Josephine & Laurentina Paisley Cashmere Scarf ($125)

GB:  On the top of my gift-giving list of ’09 are the perfect blouse, staple accessories, especially Oscar de la Renta’s twist on classic pearls, while my beauty go-tos are always Khiels, Jo Malone or Penhaligon’s. Grab some good reads with Sister Parish Design (the watercolors are brilliant!) and former Talking Head David Byrnes’ chronicles around the world on two wheels. Need a few ways to give back?  Outfit the whole family with a pair of TOMS (they also come in glittery gold!) or my favorite, for only $50, give the gift of fostering a rescued baby elephant or rhino from Daphne Sheldrick’s sanctuary in Nairobi.

LG: I put together a little collection of my favorite gifts for this season that are all under $100!  One day I hope to dell out real Ed Ruscha’s, yet until then an Art Production Fund Ruscha towel will have to suffice—added bonus, the proceeds support the non-profit project as well.  Always fun to spur some creativity, which I’m hoping will occur when I  (try to) hand over the iKaraoke and knitting kit!  Who knows, I could start a new trend, sing while you sew?!

Art Production Fund Ed Ruscha Towel ($95), iKaraoke for iPod ($46), A Dance to the Music of Time DVD of Mini Series ($52.49), TOMS Skull & Crossbone Shoes ($85), Trophy Sequin Scarf ($60), Dolores Bangle Set ($78), False Peacock Eyelashes ($24), Wool & the Gang Peruvian Wool Legwarmer & Glove Kit ($85)
