It seems like chunky gold might be making a bit of a come back in fashion circles. Certainly Marc Jacobs seems to think so with this rather svelte bracelet with watch pendant.
Retailing for £150 ($300) at Net a Porter, this could make a great gift for the wife.
I’m a big fan of London’s, luxurious, Harrods Department store. A wide variety of luxury items make this place perfect for Christmas 2007 shopping excursions.
Given that I’m already starting to think about Christmas 2007, I was quite pleased to pin down my mother’s gift when I saw this exclusive fragrance retailing at Harrods.
It’s called L’Instant Magic Edp Spray a new feminine fragrance by Guerlain. I’m not a fragrance expert, but this stuff smells pretty damn good..
Harrods say:
“With its joyful sparkle, it beckons you into the sparkling universe of bergamot and fresh floral notes, then transports you into the light sensuality of subtle white musk and the scents of precious woods.”
This fragrance is sold exclusively with Harrods for a very reasonable £49 ($100).
I always think that originality in your gift choice can either be a boom or bust strategy! I like to live on the edge so this is what my wife has to endure at Christmas or special occasions. I like to think it makes receiving a gift more exciting - because “you never know what you’re gonna get”.
That’s why when I saw this beautiful amulet it kind of struck me as being very unusual and very beautiful. Plus I could never imagine my wife asking for a Temple St Clair Crystal Rock Amulet for her birthday!!
This beautiful object retails for $1,500 and incorporates 18k gold round a crystal. Amulet with bail measures approx. 2” long and 1” wide. It’s also available in white gold.
Umm watch out wifey, this could be under the tree for Christmas 2007.
No these aren’t a saucy rip off from a Carry On film!! These are next generation stress relievers.
A fiddle wih this pair of lovelies and you’ll be good to go for hours.
Retailing at want one of those for £9.95 ($20) they are apparently very addictive - “just one quick play and you can stop at any time you want. Really. No problem. Except you can’t.”

There is a warning though:
“Warning: UberOrbs are highly magnetic. As with any magnet, keep it away from electronic equipment that may be sensitive to magnets like computers, TVs, speakers and old Uncle Joe’s pacemakers. Also make sure that you dont put them anywear credit cards, debit cards or anything with a black magnetic strip on the back or you wont be able to buy anything.”
