Super soft, way comfy, incredibly versatile, and phenomenal stretch; doesn’t that sound like garments you just can’t wait to wear? I couldn’t agree more, and this season I have been wanting to share great pieces with you that are the epitome of luxurious, high quality yet practical for a variety of everyday needs. QOR fits the bill, which features a recently-launched women’s line in which you’ll find the perfect top to wear under a blazer and to yoga, or a dress for the office and then out on the town and right into the next morning for your Saturday morning errands.
A unique feature to many of the women’s styles is washable merino wool mixed with nylon for added stretch and lightweight capabilities. Spend as much time outside as you’d like with the added bonus of UPF 50 sun protection found in many of the garments as well (prices range from $48-$248). QOR just may be one of those holiday gift suggestions that you will just have to keep for yourself…

As a frequent (and nervous) flyer who prefers to avoiding checking a bag like the plague, having my carry-on liquids quart bag pull maximum duty can be a challenge. Everything in it has to be in mini-form, including the nail polish, which makes gift-giving travel-size nail polish sets around the holidays such a win-win. The recipient can easily transport the new gift back home in her carry-on, while having the opportunity to sample an array of colors from top brands.
A few of my favorites this season include the essie Celebration Collection Holiday Nail Polish Gift Set (about $12.99), Morgan Taylor Little Miss Nutcracker Favorite 8 Mini Gift Set ($25.90), and the e.l.f. Holiday Nail Polish Pretty and Polished Gift Set ($10). Happy shopping (and nail painting), and stay tuned for more holiday gift picks over the next two weeks!

Go bold with gold tinted lip lacquer and swash on deep shade of “pink grapefruit” blush, or blend in some of your classic standby shades, refreshed in new limited edition packaging and gorgeous coffrets that will add a touch of the artist’s flare to your desk or vanity.
