Bling I Dig: Kris Nations


Y'know what makes a great stocking stuffer? Jewelry. There's nothing better than finding that one surprise last gift -- a box of sparkliness -- wedged between Clementines in a felt sock hanging from the fireplace. I've been admiring these Kris Nations earrings made of recycled gold and vintage beads. Pretty fab, no?

Company Limelight: Bodanna


I'm a sucker for bud vases and tea lights, so it's easy to see why I'm loving the ceramic goods offered by Bodanna Studio & Gallery. Less obvious? The fact that Bodanna is a nonprofit organization that teaches inner-city youth in NYC valuable workplace skills such as product design, production, sales, and marketing. Each Bodanna piece is handmade by youth in a ceramics studio in the East Village. Check out the offerings over at Bodanna.org!

Bundle Up With Bula

Oh happy, happy day! I heart America.

Now that November has rolled into our lives, it's time to think warmth. I'm digging Bula's wool-blend, recycled-micro-fleece-lined beanie with the cute lil' bow detail. It kinda reminds me of an '08 version of the hat Angelina wears in Changeling. OK, admittedly, that's a stretch. But! They're both cute and they're both hats.
