It's not even cold where I live and I'm already sort of obsessed with gloves and arm warmers. Sorry.

you don't have to feel bad about splurging a bit because they act not only as daily-wear short gloves, but also have a button-on elbow length extension for super cold nights (and extra va-va-voom). Made from 100% Cashmere. Available in black or heather grey. One size.

I'm not one to claim I know my way around the kitchen, but I can honestly say that this looks to be pretty handy.

Just transfer your liquids into the bottle, a flick of the wrist has the liquid in the cap and you are perfectly positioned to transfer perfect amounts into what ever you are cooking up. Whether it's hot or cold, they work like a charm and because they are glass and silicone, they love your dishwasher and exit in pristine condition…

I've posted the Bailey Doesn't Bark Wall Plates before, and seeing as this cup and saucer set is a bit more affordable it deserves its own place in the spotlight.

The ants were individually hand painted by me, Re Jin, then transfered onto ceramic decal paper. Hand decorated onto a beautiful, classic set of cup and saucer. decals fired. microwave + dishwasher safe. original illustration by re jin lee @ bailey doesn’t bark...all bdb items are wrapped in a gift box.

This looks to have a compact footprint and great style, so you have little excuse for settling on less-than-par sound for your iPod.

By popular demand, we've created the ideal compact AM/FM sound system for iPod with the full, rich sound you've come to expect from Vers. The 1.5R is a true 'hybrid': great as a bedside alarm, even better in the kitchen, den or office... anywhere great sound belongs.
Vers 1.5R is available in Cherry, Natural Walnut, Dark Walnut, Bamboo, Black Gloss and White Gloss finishes. Finished by hand, each Vers system takes over a week to build and each one is unique. It sounds as good as it looks; there's simply no substitute for the rigid, 9 mm thick walls of a Vers cabinet for accurate sound reproduction.
