Drifter tees are "best when worn." Indeed, the designers over at Drifter recreate the broken-in feel of your most comfy tee. Add the cool deconstruction and faux-layering, and you’ve got yourself your new favorite t-shirt!
$52 at Revolve Clothing.

Brought to our attention by a reader named Marcus with a particularly sharp eye…
If you’re looking for THE iPod nano wallet, look no further. Charles and Marie still have this adorable item in stock, unlike all of the other retailers who are currently on backorder.
The wallet, measuring 3.5" by 2.5", is constructed out of full grain leather (the good stuff) and holds your Nano along with the essentials—credit cards and cash.
But buy it NOW because it’s only going to be available until about 4pm PST today!
$25 at Charles and Marie.

New parents have already gotten all their basic baby needs (blankets, diapers, changing table, crib, etc. etc. etc.) taken care of in their many baby showers and you know how fast babies outgrow clothes. This gift is practical, sentimental and it lasts. It gives the new parents a place to collect their baby keepsakes; plus how many times have you heard parents coo over the teeny size of their baby’s feet?
$39.95 at Pearhead.

I’ll admit it: I’m planning on getting this for myself. That’s how cool it is. The egg is this great irregular shape, and the yolk is raised a few inches higher than the rest of the rug. Could one think of a better way to cover up spilled drinks from last night’s party?
$24 at Triple B Studio.

Just wanted to point out something cool that Anthropologie recently started doing: merchandising their clothes not only by item, but by outfit!
Under an "Ensembles" category, They’ve put together eighteen outfits in total, nine categorized under "High Art" and the other nine listed under "Contemporary Art.
We think it’s a cool idea at it’s core. We’re very pro-ensembles, especially since we try not to buy garments without knowing they’ll work with at least three different outfit combos. It’s this spirit that’s behind our Ready Made Outfits: Women | Men).
What do you think about Anthropologie’s ensemble feature? What do you like? What could they have done better?

We just love polka dots. Why? Because they span all seasons and occasions. Polka dot prints are perfect for a summer barbecue, a holiday cocktail party or just another day in the office. They can be serious or whimsical. Best of all, this classic look will never go out of style.
Feeling conspicuous? Try smaller dots (such as the ones on this Kate Spade), or Swiss dots, like the ones on our dress below.
Luisa Beccaria Red Polka Dot Cardigan | $382 at Yoox
Moschino Cheap and Chic Polka Dot Slide | $375 at Neiman Marcus
Larabee Noel Ariane Purse | $125 at Kate Spade
Luisa Beccaria Off the Shoulder Silk Polka Dot Top | $415 at Yoox
