Success is a Job and Smells like it Too

In Fragance on December 17, 2009 at 4:49 pm

Looking for the perfect self-gift this year which encompasses the sweet smell of success? Bond No. 9′s latest scent conjures one of the most intoxicating (and elusive) elements of them all: money. The scent itself is spicy and sultry, with fresh citrus top-notes balanced by sexy floral and oriental undertones. It’s packaged in a sleek black bottle stamped with Andy Warhol’s iconic neon dollar sign, a pulsing, vibrant image that screams success. With any luck, this fragrance will have you reeking of success — or at the very least you’ll smell amazing.

Bond Perfume No. 9 – Andy Warhol Success is a Job is spicy-citrusy fragrance with top notes-coriander, cardamom, mandarin, bergamot-lead into a throbbing heart of jasmine, tuberose, rose, plum and pimento that eventually segues into an oriental base of vanilla, patchouli, and amber.

Cost: $220.00

Haute Hippie

In Fashion on December 17, 2009 at 12:20 pm

Poncho’s are the perfect winter “throw on” accessory for winter and spring! This Haute Hippie hand-coiled oatmeal alpaca poncho is a beautifully bohemian cover up that looks perfect with skinny jeans or leggings, and boots. Beware when rocking a poncho, a few things could go awry: you don’t want the sweater to go past your knees, no patterns and try to stay away from anything with fringe. Pocahontas is not the look you’re going for.
