Great Gifts of Glass

Deb Savvy — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 02:58:54 +0000

Sometimes a beautiful glass vase is a perfect gift – especially for weddings. For certain people you don’t want to give something of the registry – you want something different and artsy. Something that will stand out against all the other wedding gifts. Something the bride and groom will have in their home for many years to come. Like a beautiful glass vase.

Or bowl. Or something else simple, elegant and dramatic.

You’ll always find something that fits the bill at Mikasa .

Haute Hearts

Deb Savvy — Thu, 24 Jan 2008 03:18:23 +0000

One Stop Shopping for Artsy Holiday Gifts

Deb Savvy — Mon, 17 Dec 2007 06:22:39 +0000

First off – they’ve got TONS of beautiful holiday themed items. Ornaments. Stockings. Tabletop items. And loads of handcrafted and unusual gifts for everyone on your list that don’t scream ‘Christmas”. Hand crafted silver jewelry. Art glass and crystal. Sculpture. Fountains. Bath and body products. Natural healing products. Ecofriendly and organic apparel, bedding, towels and more.

It’s a one stop easy shopping mecca. You’d normally have to spend days scouring little funky boutiques to see anything close to their selection of unusual (and affordable) gifts.

The Warmest Tidings

Deb Savvy — Sat, 08 Dec 2007 09:17:43 +0000

One of my favorite gift of warm tidings is the gift of warm wrappings. Most anyone would appreciate the gift of a luxuriously warm throw to take the chill off the cold winter nights?

This luxurious Reversible Silk Fleece Throw is cashmere soft and available in a rainbow of sumptuous double sided hues. Choose from camel and tan, shell and sand, gray and pink, aqua and green or orchid and smoke. The 3″ twisted fringe on both ends of this throw blends the colors for a perfect finish. With its soft feel, fantastic fashion colors and subtle sheen, you’ll be tempted to wear it as a glamorous wrap on cool evenings. Special Pricing! Was $99, now $84. From Soft Surroundings .

In Praise of Cashmere Boutique

Deb Savvy — Wed, 28 Nov 2007 20:03:24 +0000

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote a post about bargain cashmere shopping at Cashmere Boutique (Dreamy-Little-Cashmere-Accessories) The deals were SO fabulous that I just had to do a bit of shopping for myself.

I ordered a black cashmere v-neck ribbed pull over, a pair of black cashmere cable knit socks (on sale for only $33!) and a burgundy v-neck ribbed cardigan. The cardigan was out of stock. I knew that when I placed my order, but I liked it so much and the price was so great that I figured it would be worth the wait. Yesterday, I received an e-mail from Cashmere Boutique informing me that they would no longer be carrying that particular sweater but that they did have one in the same color (and for the same $99 price) with a slightly different neckline. The e-mail included a picture of the potential replacement and a quick link to add that item to my prior order with one click. The sweater was cute, but I wasn’t exactly sure I liked the round neck so I decided to think about it for a while. Today I came home to a message on my voice mail. I real live person from Cashmere Boutique called me to make sure I had gotten the e-mail and to apologize for being unable to fill my backorder. She left me a phone number and her direct extension and assured my that were I to need this item quickly for a gift (after all, Hanukkah is less than a week away) that my replacement cardigan would be express shipped at no charge to me. Unfortunately, personal service like this is pretty uncommon these days – especially when you’re bargain hunting. I could not possibly be happier with my shopping experience. The sweater and socks that I did receive were absolutely terrific and of a much higher quality than I expected, particularly for the price. If you’re shopping for cashmere this holiday season, start at Cashmere Boutique. You’ll be as impressed as I am.

Simplicity of Silver

Deb Savvy — Mon, 22 Oct 2007 22:16:35 +0000

I like really simple accessories and jewelry. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE diamonds as much as the next girl, but when it comes to day to day bracelets and baubles, I prefer simple clean lines that make the most of the beauty of the materials. I’m especially fond of simple silver cuffs. Like this one from Flat Earth Trading Co..

925 Sterling Silver Bracelet featuring a modern design. Hand made in Bali. 17 grams. 2.5 inches and 0.25 inches in width. $75.99 at Flat Earth Trading Co.

Accessories that Affirm

Deb Savvy — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 06:45:39 +0000

There’s nothing like the power of positive thinking. Sometimes, it’s all about attitude, right? And sometimes we all need a little reminder. A simple piece of jewelry inscribed with an inspiring message, perhaps. Slip it on as a reminder to be all you can be. An excellent thing to buy for yourself and a wonderful gift for a sister or friend who needs a nudge of encouragement.

I like this Journey Necklace from Acacia Catalog, where they have some really nice pieces of inspirational and symbolic jewelry. Both a pendant and a touchstone (its texture invites the hand), the sterling silver disc features the Japanese Kanji character for “journey” on one side, the English word on the other. 18″ sterling chain closes with a front toggle.

Glorious Gourmet Gifting

Deb Savvy — Sat, 08 Sep 2007 05:20:01 +0000

Their multicourse gourmet feasts are prepared by gourmet chefs – all you do is heat, serve and enjoy.

Silver Style for Dapper Dads

Deb Savvy — Thu, 07 Jun 2007 23:41:03 +0000

Some men wear French cuffed shirt, some don’t. For any guy who does, cuff links are a terrific gift option. Especially for Father’s Day, when you want to treat dad to something special but you really want it to be a gift he can use throughout the year. For a great selection of cuff links, take a surf over to Forzieri.com. It won’t take nearly as long or cost nearly as much as traveling all the way to Italy – but that’s where you’ll feel like you’re shopping. I like these simple squares so much I’m considering treating myself to a pair. At under $70, they’re a steal.

ATH Mirror Polished Silver Plated Cufflinks – Forzieri

For something with a bit more color, these Murano glass cuff links are the epitome of Italian style.

Deb Savvy — Thu, 29 Mar 2007 03:26:42 +0000

And a complete steal, too! I’ve just been doing some window surfing for things I totally DON’T need and found a beautiful bargain that’s simply too good not to share. How elegant and perfect is this pearl drop necklace? I love it. Just the perfect thing for everyday or an evening out. The pearl drop pendant measures about 9 mm and hangs beautifully on the multiple sterling silver chains.

Bargain Bling – Diamond Initial Necklaces

Deb Savvy — Sat, 03 Mar 2007 02:55:14 +0000

True confession: Sometimes I surf for diamond jewelry just for fun. A girl can dream, right? After all, diamond jewelry is just not something to buy on a normal day. Or is it? Check this out: I found diamond initial necklaces for under $65! The blocky style shown below is available in 14k yellow or white gold for $64.95. They don’t have the full alphabet anymore and the dozen or so remaining letters are going fast. They’ve also got a second, more delicate style of diamond initial necklace called ‘Beautiful’. It’s currently $89.95 (retail $299), with a much fuller selection of letters available in both yellow and white 14k gold.

I found these at Diamond Harmony, where the coupon code above will take 10% off your order.

Frame Up

Deb Savvy — Mon, 11 Dec 2006 23:29:02 +0000

Frames and photo albums are a terrific gift, especially for people who can often be difficult to buy for. Red Envelope has a terrific selection. They’ve got frame/album combos, wooden frames, leather frames, silver plate frames and much, much more. Check out their brushed nickel family tree frame set – it’s a beautiful tabletop tree that comes with 13 small frames to hang from the branches. Very unique and at $75 an excellent value. I also like the gallery frame collections. Beautiful wooden frames (with removable mats) hang together from brass bars in an interesting elegant pattern. Prices range from $78 to $98, depending on the size of the set.

They’ve Got The Gloves

Deb Savvy — Sat, 02 Dec 2006 02:44:37 +0000

Next time you’re looking for gloves, take a surf through the selection at Forzieri , one of my favorite surf spots for the best in Italian design. They’ve got gloves galore. Knit gloves. Velvet gloves. Gloves embellished with Swarovski crystals. Gloves for men. Gloves for women. And some of the must luscious leather gloves you’ve ever seen. They are available unlined, lined with silk and, of course, lined with purse cashmere. There is a rainbow of colors from which to choose, and, of course, basic black.
