Two Very nice intertwined “G” logos sets off a nice bold style for the Gucci “Ring with interlocking Guilloche G Motif.” At first glance I wanted to adorn this ring with a puffed out manly chest and shout, “With your powers combined, I am Captain GUCCI!” Hopefully people still remember one of the best cartoons ever, “Captain Planet.” Then I realized how inappropriate that would sound so I thought (with childish glee) the ring would somehow summon an extraterrestrial green lantern that grants its wearer alien powers. For only $300 it makes my imaginations less farfetched.

You can never go wrong with what to wear when you have this sterling silver 11g ring. From afar it can pass for a class ring. So, what class were you in? Class Gucci 2012!

This little piggy went to market, this little piggy stayed home, and this little piggy got stuck in some Gucci-monogrammed fabric and became a coin purse. Gucci has available a pig coin purse that is too cute for words. Straying from the typical design of coin purses, Gucci surely knows how to layer on the adorableness. With its pointy ears, round cheeks, and a tail that also functions as a strap, I definitely have my eye on this little piggy. If you hate it when you go out and buy something but only end up with coins, then pick up this coin purse because then you’ll be begging for spare change. This coin purse measures 5.5”L x 3.5”W x 3.1”H. The price tag on this little piggy is certainly not chump change as it goes for $290. You can purchase it through Gucci.com.

I thought this little accessory was pretty cute. It’s a bird speaker. Birds are known for chirping and singing, right? So this is a bird on technological steroids. It now plays your favorite music from any music device, including: mp3 players, iphone, ipod, dvd player, cd player, laptop, desktop, walkman, radio, etc.

This bird, also known as Fauvette, are sold in stores for $35. It’s a bit pricey, but it comes with a 2 watt speaker that lasts up to four hours on a single charge. Simply plug the USB cable into your computer to charge the unit. There is also a battery indicator on the unit to let the user know when battery levels are low.

Though this would not work for me, it definitely would make a great gift for any teenage girl.

What time is it? It’s time for me to get a new watch! Who hasn’t heard of that one? Well, my Movado watch has finally drained my last battery and I plan on using it as an excuse to purchase a brand new watch. I was in the market for something more casual than my Movado, but at the same time I want it to be stylish. During my scrumptious yet nutritious lunch, I happened upon a very masculine and classic watch while surfing the web. It couldn’t be helped! This watch had dials that can give off a superb “come hither” look! Kenneth Cole, you have outdone yourself this time. Props to you Kenneth Cole.

The Kenneth Cole New York “Navy Rubber Link Watch” is the white whale that I’ve been searching for. It has a classic 4mm face with a modern navy blue band. The frame of the face is made of steel that’s coated in a gleaming black. The dates displayed are magnified which means I have no excuse to forget a birthday. The little boy in me is jumping with joy because it only costs $125 on the Kenneth Cole website.

At first glimpse I get this image in my head that this tie clip is giving off in big letters, the word “TACO”.  Don’t get me wrong this is a pleasant looking tie clip that has imprints of authenticity that it is real silver and also the year that Tiffany & Co. was established. I feel that if I were to wear this tie clip out, an Average Joe would just think that I have on a tie clip that spells out the word “TACO” along with meaningless numbers surrounding it. For a price of $120 on the Tiffany’s website, I feel like there are better options for simple and subtle tie clips out there. What are your thoughts for this tie clip? Leave your comments below!

I was looking for a wallet that could literally replace my purse and I found the Rioni Dual Zip Wallet Organizer. This wallet was exactly what I was looking for…

This wallet practically is a purse, for it has tons of compartments, tons of space for receipts, cards, cash, and other junk. There is even a divider for my smartphone. The outside has a slit pocket where I could put receipts, tickets, or parking stubs. The inside has a zipper pocket where I could put my coins. The zipper has two zipper entrances so it keeps all your essentials organized. This wallet is great for travelling because you can keep one side full of foreign currency and the other side full of local currency.

I love this wallet. A+ for Rioni!

I never thought the day would come when a person would wake up one morning and decide that they want to revert back in time before the evolution of man occurred. You might be a little confused as to what I am referring to. Ladies and gentlemen, let’s take a moment to ogle at the image that lies above this text. What might those monstrous things be? Those are Prada’s new gloves made of nappa leather along with a faux lapin fur. If I saw a person walking around town with those things on her arms, I would probably jump back in horror for fear of being attacked. It would be an understatement if I were to say that those things pack a punch. The pale pink version of these gloves resembles the arms of a baboon while the silver version is the facsimile of a gorilla’s limbs. If you were to put these on, it would resemble the scene of a horror film when a person realizes that she is slowly turning into a monster. Looks aside, let’s get down to the technicalities of these gloves. Judging by the amount of furriness going on, these gloves are meant to keep your arms warm. However, they also make it hard for a person to coordinate one’s outfit since it would be difficult to wear these over a regular coat. What that means is that you would be left wearing a sweater of some sort. I just don’t see the point of wearing these gloves when the rest of your body is left shivering from the cold. To add insult, Prada lists these gloves for $450. I say save yourself the money and purchase a nice coat instead or some other glove that doesn’t make you veer on the side of ridiculous.

I saw this picture in a magazine advertisement. It looks like Rioni is releasing new styles during the first quarter of 2012. This bag looks gorgeous. I can’t wait to see the others as well.

From what I see in this picture, it looks like it has dual flat handles and an additional shoulder strap as well. That is a great look! I also can see that there is a zipper pocket in the front of the bag as well. I hope it has divider compartments for the interior, for I like many of the other Rioni handbags for this reason.

Keep your eyes out for the upcoming additions. I definitely will keep mine open!
