    Reece's Pieces

    Reece Hudson cuts out the flash--but still makes a splash

    WHAT: Reece Hudson No. 1 clutch

    WHY: It's easy for clutches to be a bit...precious. Crystals, bow, metallics--it's not that you don't love a gleaming Judith Leiber now and then, but sometimes a bit more pared-down is just perfect. Enter Reece Hudson, a line of bags just as luxe as they are rugged, for a downtown, casual vibe that's still completely chic. (Oversized, neutral colored, and so cool--could we have found the perfect Fashion Week clutch?) The brand is one to watch, for sure; come Fashion Week, they'll hold a presentation in a private apartment on Astor Place. You know what we'll be carrying...

    PRICE: $940

    AVAILABLE: Castor & Pollux, New York

    Do the Twist

    Phillip Lim dresses up a tee--with a twist

    WHAT: 3.1 Phillip Lim asymmetrical draped tee

    WHY: Some days are jeans-and-t-shirt days, and there's just no way around it. But who says going casual has to mean going grungy? This draped cotton tee will be in heavy rotation in your closet, we promise--with everything from the aforementioned denim to a snazzy sequined miniskirt--but you'll never leave the comfort of your favorite slouchy tee.

    PRICE: $175

    Ready to Wrap

    WHAT: Lulu Frost deco bow dress clip earrings

    WHY: Whether you've finished your shopping or not, that whole "holiday spirit" thing has become unavoidable--not that you're complaining. It's time to give in to the urge to wrap everything in colored paper and bedeck it with bows, but don't forget yourselves, darlings! We'll give you the pass on the paper, but these sweet bow earrings from Lisa Salzer of Lulu Frost are too perfect to pass up.

    Snake Charmer

    WHAT: Samantha Wills' Snake Ring

    WHY: 'Tis the season for a bit of statement jewelry. Cartier began the whole animals-as-finger-candy trend, with that legendary Panther collection, but we love Samantha Wills' cost-effective take on the idea. This slightly devious, slightly sparkly bauble will take all the attention away from your manicure. Added bonus? No other jewels required.
