What boy wouldn't love these awesome Von Zipper Chakkra Gloss Ski Goggles ($95).

This holiday, treat your lil' sis, or budding style star in your life, with surprising trinkets and decadent gifts.

It's no secret that we love female writers around here at Sugar HQ, but according to Publishers Weekly, no book written by a woman was good enough to make the list of the top 10 titles of 2009. Maybe it's time for women to start taking masculine pen names again.
In response to the disappointing list, the group Women in Letters and Literary Arts (WILLA) has put together a list of books that were overlooked, written by authors like Lorrie Moore, Rita Dove, Margaret Atwood, Alice Munro, Mavis Gallant, and Alicia Ostriker.

Are you a member of Twilight-mania? If you've read the books, seen the flick multiple times, are counting down the days for New Moon, and have poster(s) of them in your room, then I think it's safe to say you are. I much prefer to observe the craze from a distance, but the vortex is getting stronger.

Now is the time to show off your inner prowess in this season's hottest trend: cat prints. Feline-inspired motifs are all about emoting major ferociousness via micro-minis, leggings, frocks, accessories, and chiffon tops — like this rad Dagmar Leopard Print Top ($231). Indeed, you have to be a wild one to don such cat power, but isn't there a little pussy cat in all of us?

Whimsical, playful, comical, eccentric — all ways to describe giving into fanciful notions. Polka dots, bows, sequins, animals, and ruffles are all ways to amuse yourself. I have been in a whimsical fashion mood lately — perhaps Louis Vuitton's bunny ears, coupled with Mary-Kate and Ashley's lace ears, spawned it.
