Wish List Wednesday: Agent Provocateur Spot Ankle Socks
It’s coming! That one day of the year when we spend just a bit more time thinking of just the perfect thing to wear: Valentine’s Day!  And we thought it’d be great to share that little something extra that may really make that outfit pop.  Something that we wouldn’t typically think could spice up that romantic day is finally finding its way into that tease-y territory.
Agent Provocateur is known for its pretty little lacy things and its delicate under garments but their Spring/Summer 2013 collection is seeing a new addition to their oh-so-dainty line of unmentionables with the release of their super cute Spot Ankle Socks.  They come in blue with pink spots or pink with yellow spots.  AP suggests pairing them with your favorite high heels and a dress for a flirty, effortless look.  We couldn’t agree more.

We love our iPhones.  In fact, we don’t go anywhere without them.  Why?

Wish List Wednesday: Luxe Gifting

The holiday season is now in full swing and we thought it’d be great to gather a comprehensive wish list of super chic gifts from our favorite fashionable do-good companies. What puts these 3 wishes at the top of our list? They’re beautiful, they’ve got immeasurable social value, and all these pieces can be worn around your neck for the world to see.

  1. Fonderie 47 Phoenix NecklaceFonderie 47 is committed to freeing Africa from the fear and hold of assault rifles. Their idea is to generate global attention regarding the injustices found throughout war zones by taking old, illegal weapons and reinventing them to become beautiful and captivating jewelry pieces. The price of this indulgent donation costs about $240,000 but is made of Fonderie 47 Steel, diamonds, 18K rose gold and platinum.
  2. FEED Kenya Masai Scarf: Super stylish and functional, this scarf is only going to cost you $55. The perfect gift for a friend or co-worker, this fashionable embellishment will help you fight in the war against hunger and will provide 10 school meals for a child in Kenya.
  3. The Never Ending Necklace: This unique necklace is made by The Giving Keys. The foundation of this company is exceptionally special because they’ve partnered up with United Way and PATH to employ those transitioning out of homelessness. They ask that you give these to someone special to keep the cycle of giving going. The best part? It’s only about $55 and can be personalized for $5 more. While you’re considering giving it away, though, be sure to nab one for yourself.
Happy 12.12.12, everybody!

Because the holiday season has finally graced New York City, we’re feeling exceptionally wishful and decided to add just a few more things to this week’s wish list.

Studs, metal, spikes! We want all of these things and more. Luckily for us BCBGMAXAZRIA has granted our wishes and has created a bit of a collection of these barbed beauties for our pointy pleasure. They’re fun, functional and just what us tech-savvy ladies need to get through every moment of the day.

Start the day off with some coffee conveniently conserved in your Reusable Mug With Studded Trim. Then, be on time while you tackle the city’s hustle and bustle to get to that 9 a.m. meeting thanks to your absolutely arresting Pyramid-Stud Link Watch. Finally, as your day winds down sometime around… never, you get a melodious pick-me-up streaming out of either your Pave Stud Earbuds or your killer Studded Metallic Retro Headphones.

Enjoy, fellow fash-tech bombshells!
