The bathmats in my master bathroom have been getting me down lately. Even when they’re clean, they just don’t look fresh and inviting. They just look like a fuzzy towel there on my bathroom floor. I like the clean lines and the zen-spa like vibe of this Hinoki Bath Mat
.

Hinoki Bath Mat (large) 
$55 at VivaTerra – Eco Living with Style 
I hadn’t thought of wood – but it’s an attractive and practical alternative. Especially the Japanese cypress, also known as Hinoki. Well known in Japan, Hinoki wood is prized for its natural therapeutic properties. Hinoki contains natural antibacterial agents and is resistant to humidity; both of which make it a great option for the bathroom. This wood is also rich in minerals and essential oils used in Japan for treatment of skin ailments and to reduce stress; both of which make it a great option for turning your bathroom into a home spa.

I’ve always been a big fan of The Museum Store Company
. It’s the perfect place to discover unusual gifts and one of all time favorite places to shop for earrings. I’m particularly enamored of some of their reproductions of classic Egyptian designs.

Egyptian 24K Gold over Sterling Silver with Lapis Earrings
– $58
Their extremely well edited collection includes the best of the best from museum gift shops worldwide. If you fell in love with something on your last visit to Prado or Met, didn’t buy it and it’s been haunting you ever since, you just might find it here.

“Thebes Earrings with Turquoise – Egyptian, c. 960 B.C.”
– $28
One of the nicest things about the jewelry at the Museum Store Company
is the quality – these are superbly well made pieces. And the prices are pretty incredible, too, with dozens of earring options available for under $60.

A bathrobe is always an excellent choice for Dad on Father’s Day. A new bathrobe is like a big hug he can wear every single day (or night). The warmer and cozier, the better.

Like this ROBE’N HOOD (Him), from BathrobeShop. A total bargain at only $59.95 and sure to be a big hit with Dad on his big day.

If you don’t think a hood is quite up Dad’s alley, this ROMEO (Him) is snuggly and wonderful. Also $59.95 at BathrobeShop.

It’s that time of year again. Scrambling to come up with an appropriate holiday thank you to someone who went above and beyond for you at work this year. Someone who contributed to your success. A boss who was super supportive with a difficult client. Or the manager of another department who stayed late to get you something you needed. Gifting to individuals in a corporate setting can be really challenging. Anything expensive or too personal would be inappropriate. It just doesn’t feel right to send a gift basket or cake. This is one of those tricky gifting situations.
Why not that that person who’s helped your star rise faster and shine brighter by doing the same in return. Gift them a star of their very own. For as little as $54, you can Name a Star
after anyone you choose and your gratitude will be memorialized for eternity.
All International Star Registry gifts come with a letter of congratulations, certificate of ownership and a sky chart showing the exact location of the recipient’s personal shining star. Various options and additional accompanying gift items are available.

Sometimes you want to be all ‘blinged’ out – and other times you just want something simple and perfect. Like a small pair of gold hoop earrings. Every woman needs at least a couple of pair. I’m going through a ‘less is more’ phase at the moment and love the look of a very small pair of hoops. Like these.

14k Yellow Gold Small Hoop Earring
From: MontRED
I found them for only $60 at Mont Red – where they’re available in white gold as well, for the same price. They’ve got a great selection of simple (and not so simple) earrings in hoops and lots of other shapes. Gold and white gold in both 14 and 18 carat. Silver. Diamonds. Colored stones. And more. This is the kind of jewelry we buy for ourselves. The coupon link below will save you 5% on your order.

What two things are less likely to combine than stainless steal and pearls? Talk about an unlikely combination! Yet put together into this XO grey freshwater pearl pendant they work perfectly together. Simple and elegant. Classic yet ultra modern at the same time. The pendant is $57 at Miego Inc., where the stainless steel chain is sold separately for $18 in 16, 18 and 20 inch lengths. They’ve got a great selection of unusual contemporary jewelry – everything from necklaces to cufflinks – all exceedingly well priced.

What better way to express love than with the gift of heart jewelry. This is a beautiful bracelet reminiscent of Tiffany’s styling, with a shiny heart tag and fanciful toggle clasp, all in brightly polished sterling silver. A bargain as compared to the Tiffany version.
