• Square Cuff Links

  

  Tabitha sent me a note to tell me about Konzuk’s amazing jewelry, and I’m most grateful. These cufflinks are made of powder-coated steel, and you can choose which color you prefer. They also make neat stuff that incorporates concrete, and some enviable wedding ring sets.

• Two Timer Scarf

  

  Yellow! Stock up on a little sunshine before the fashion gods snatch it away for another decade. This silk scarf is reversible and long enough to wear as a sash (3” W x 70” L). Wear it with something bright and entirely too low cut.

• Bust Magazine

  

  Bust isn’t so much a feminist magazine as it is a women’s magazine with feminist ideals. That means you’ll find music, DIY, pop culture, and fashion articles that never make you feel like crap for being single or fat. God bless the editorial staff.

  Brushing your teeth manually can be so taxing. Thank goodness for Sonicare. It will make your teeth clean and pristine. The brush gives a beep after you’ve been brushing for two minutes, so you can daydream while it does all the work. Passersby will shield their eyes from your blinding smile.

• Aluminum Dove Ornament

  

  I have a backlog of bird-inspired objects ruffling in my bookmarks. This little guy is 6.5”, and I thought he’d make a sweet blind-pull ornament. He’d also be amusing dangling from the cord of your ceiling fan. Comes in silver or chocolate.

  Oh, oh bateau! You know how I feel about your collarbone, my sweet. Give it some air. This soft ballet sweater is a little piece of Hepburn, and bless it. Basics like these are why Gap was invented. Pair it with a white trousers or a full skirt and flats. Girly, but comfy.

  2006 COVET GUIDE

  Your puppy is tough. He can run full force into the patio door, whack his head, and pop right back up. He can catch a Frisbee at 50 mph with his teeth. Now you can get him his own leather jacket made of calfskin with eyelet detailing. If he’s the best guard dog around, he might as well dress the part.

• Classic Century Teapot

  

  I’ve spent way too much time on eBay looking for the perfect teapot. This honey is a reissue of a 1952 design by Eva Zeisel. It’s dishwasher and microwave safe, totally usable, and worthy of display. Several pieces in the collection have the same utilitarian, yet sculptural feel to them. Click around and see if you fall for one too.
