Shoe wunderkind Brian Atwood is giving us another reason to blow our paycheck in (premature) fall shopping. The designer’s suede Thigh Boots (with a metal chain that runs down the back) are Chic’s new favorite. And strangely, we hear they're actually comfortable. C’est possible? Whatever---we're willing to suffer. THE DETAILS: $3,467.92, Colette

Accoutrements is a self-described “wholesale supplier of awesome.” With a claim like that, we simply had to take a peek at their quirky website in search for something, well, awesome. And sure enough, voila! A shower cap in the shape of a frog. Only at Colette... THE DETAILS: $8.98, colette

Sometimes cheekily relevant, sometimes utter nonsense, aleXsandro Palombo's Humor Chic blog of fashion-themed illustrations never ceases to amuse. His latest? The Last Fashion Dinner, where the notoriously svelte Vogue editrix Anna Wintour enjoys a feast of Karl Lagerfeld, Valentino Garavani, Giorgio Armani, Tom Ford, and a curiously retro-looking Marc Jacobs. We don't know what to read into this...so we just won't. Bon appétit!

The weekend is (nearly) here, so surely some of vous are decamping from the city, in search of some wholesome recreation? Chic's been loving golf lately, but the one conundrum? It's the 4th hole, par 5, and the halfway-house is ages away. A cool drink would be divine, but the Club insists you wait till the 9th. May we introduce you to a “club” that will serve you at any point in your adventure? This will surely become your wood of choice, as it automatically dispenses your favorite drink with a discreet touch of a button. THE DETAILS: $99.99, Sharper Image

We at Chic have found yet another reason to pay a visit to New York’s newest (and perhaps hippest) French import, Jérôme Dreyfuss. Besides to scoop up his Twee bag (we’ve had our eye on you, Jérôme), we’ll be stopping by his Soho spot to check out Julien Gardair’s newest art installation. The French multi-media artist has utilized his talents, along with some black masking tape, to cover the white walls of this one-stop-shop for Francophiles and Dreyfuss fans alike. THE DETAILS: 473 Broome Street (between Greene and Wooster)

Erickson Beamon’s Secret Society necklace screams exclusivity --- and we want in. This Swarovski-crystal embellished and rhodium-plated piece has an old-world allure that is absolutely striking. Paired with a floor-length gown or just a white T, you’ll look like you’ve raided your fabulous grandmother’s jewelry box. THE DETAILS: $855, Net-a-porter
