I like dramatic rings. To me they say: "Careful, this lady might be a little bit crazy..." Sometimes that's the image I want to project. And this porcelain ring fits the bill. It has a funky shape, a cool flower pattern, and an eye-catching canary yellow color.

$25.00, Orange Button

This top is too cute, with its cap sleeves, a cool pink and black damask print, and shiny black beads along the scoop-neck collar. I could see wearing this on a date or going out with friends after work.

$51.75, Macy's

I just want to curl up with this soft cotton throw pillow. The black anis floral design is simple and elegant. It would look really nice on a white or brightly colored couch.

This handmade cotton bag is so cute that I want to hug it. I especially love the fabric combination and the colorful lining. The bag is 10 inches wide and has a cell phone pocket and magnetic snap closure.

I really, really like See's Gourmet Lollypops --chocolate, vanilla, butterscotch, caffe latte-- I like them all. This is the same candy, only in an individually wrapped, bite size form. The best part is that you can snack on them at work without being self-conscious that you look like a five year old.

$3.30 for a 4-ounce box, See's Candies

As a kid, I was devastated when my little brother ate my Hershey's Kiss chocolate lip gloss. Heaven knows how quickly he would have gobbled down these. I haven't had the opportunity to sample these four lip balms yet, but with flavors like raspberry cream tart, cream tart, chocolate cream puff, and strawberry cream tart, you can bet that I'm dying to dive in.

$16.00, Fred Flare

These earrings are pretty pricey, but I like the cool blue goldstones that hang from the one-inch hoops. They're glass beads that, through a chemical process, have countless little flecks of metal inside. They're so glittery as they catch the light.

$118.00, Wishgiving

Use these pillowcases printed with chandelier silhouettes, and maybe you'll have dreams of fancy masquerade balls (try the finger food--it's calorie-free!). Or maybe you'll get one of the great dreams I've had a few times where you find a fabulous secret room in your apartment.

$24.00, Urban Outfitters

Got dry lips? This stuff is great for that. It moisturizes your lips without feeling greasy or waxy. And it doesn't really have taste or color. Try it, and you'll want to keep one in your purse, your desk drawer, and your nightstand.

$9.00, Caswell-Massey

These coasters have an interesting shape. They're mirrored on top and have a decorative grey flocked silk fabric on the underside. They'd look great on any coffee table. And if you light a few candles, and you can watch the flames dance in the reflections.
