Betty White Calendar

We wouldn't mind getting older if it really is as much fun as Betty White makes it look. The young-at-heart actress is starring in her own calendar, complete with hunky, young, shirtless men. Proceeds from the calendar benefit her Morris Animal Foundation. The calendar goes on sale in September. You go, Betty!

Update: The calendar isn't all Betty White has cooking. WWD reported today on Betty White hoodies.

Strawberries and Chocolate for Valentine's Day?

L'Age de Thé has the perfect treat for Valentine's day for a friend, a lover or even yourself. Their Valentine's day blend is a combination of black tea, strawberries and chocolate with a hint of rose petals. This time of year we brew a couple of cups of tea each day, this one needs to be in our rotation!

Intoxicated Zodiac Candles: Great Valentine's Day Gift

Intoxicated Zodiac Celestial Cocktail Candles would make a special Valentine's day gift especially since there are different "cocktail" concoctions for each sign.  We try travel with candles because no matter how nice your hotel is you run the chance of encountering some strange odors: mold, smoke, or cooking smells.  Creator Gwen Sutherland puts an unlit Capricorn candle on her tray table during flights (molasses espressotini scent-yum!).

You can find them at our Open Sky store and they're on sale this week for 25% off.  

Ralph Lauren Olympic Collection

The U.S. Olympic athletes will be outfitted by Ralph Lauren for the 2010 Winter Games.  It's more sporty than the Summer 2008 collection; but just as put together.  The collection is available for purchase on the Ralph Lauren website where you can also find some great information about the games and the athletes. We love the navy puffer jacket with the red stripe down the sleeves; but could do without the oversized logo. As far as the tapered white pants, it takes someone in great shape to pull those off.

 

The Opening Ceremony Knit Sweater (wool/cashmere blend) is beautiful and wearable.  The Olympic patch on the sleeve makes it sporty; but not too much so.  It would be perfect on a ski trip.

The Olympic Ceremony Knit Hat would be great for a ski trip as well, though we can't see wearing it on 5th Avenue.  Since it's unisex, we think it'd make a great gift for your SO and a not too gaudy souvenir from the Olympic Games.
