Sally Hansen has introduced 5 new limited-edition holiday prints of their superpopular Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips (read our review). The new prints include Plaid About You (red and black plaid), Peppermint Twist (red and white candy stripe), Snow Bunny (white with red snowflakes), Prep's Cool (black and silver argyle), and Winter Funderland (black, silver and blue glitter). The strips are made of real nail polish but there's no mess or drying time - you just peel, apply, file and go. In my experience, the strips last about a week and most colors are easy to remove with regular nail polish remover (just the glitter ones are tough). I love them all but if I had to pick just one, I'd get the plaid. How about you?

Yesterday I finally checked out the Albertus Swanepoel for Target collection, a limited-edition line of hats by milliner Albertus Swanepoel priced at $19.99 each. My store had 12 of the 14 styles, with many items still available which makes me wonder if the line isn't all that popular or whether Target just decided to offer a greater number of hats so as to avoid selling out. The hats which I had expected to love based on the images in the lookbook didn't quite live up to my expectations so I left empty-handed, but I might still pick up the leopard-print hat. We shall see. What do you guys think of the line? Did you buy anything?

CFDA award-winning designer Alexis Bittar's handcrafted lucite bangles embellished with Swarovski crystals sell for $375 each at Saks Fifth Avenue.



Yesterday I spotted these bangles at Target and was instantly reminded of Bittar's work. Apart from the obvious differences in quality and style, the Target bangles are still an attractive holiday accessory, available in black, white, silver or gold for $19.99 each at Target stores.
