Ambient 7-Day Weather Forecaster

For people like me who are too rushed in the morning to check the weather forecast, this little device is so handy. It uses radio signals to wirelessly retrieve up-to-date weather forecasts from AccuWeather.com. The six-inch LCD display, which changes color based on the outdoor temperature, lists the seven-day forecast as well as pollen alerts and the UV index. Oh, and it's a clock too.

Naomi Jacket

It's getting chilly outside, which makes this wool-blend jacket look even more warm and inviting. It has quilted lining and an awesomely fuzzy faux fir trim. It comes in gray or brown.

$228.00, Abercrombie & Fitch

Blue Goldstone Black Silver Hoop Earrings

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

Ink Wash Dress

This dress is so pretty. I love the feathery plume pattern, the black lace petticoat, big black sash, and lace ruffle trim. You could easily winter-fy it with a little black cardigan.

$168.00, Anthropologie

Jacquard Skirt with Sequins

I like a skirt with sparkle. This champagne-colored number not only has a shiny pattern that catches the light, but the lower half of it is speckled with gold sequins. It's a sophisticated look that works for day or evening.

$128.00, Ann Taylor

Triple Frame

This ornate frame, made of glossy white resin, can hold three four by six photos. If you're really cool, you'll put actual photos in there, instead of creepy numbers (what's up with that?).

$149.00, Brocade Home

T-Bags Twisted Spaghetti Strap Dress

This jersey cocktail dress is totally gorgeous. I love the color, the empire waist, low back, and pretty twisted straps. This would be great for a hot date or a special event.

Hulger P*Phone and Base

Just because you have a Nokia and use Skype doesn't mean you can't have a princess phone. This phone, which comes four colors, plugs into your USB port, so you can use it for your VoIP calling. You can also plug the receiver right into your cell phone, if you want to be all fancy like that.

$115.00, 2Modern

Night Falls Dress

What a perfect little black dress. I love how the whole thing is covered in dotted lace. And there are pretty details, like the flutter sleeves and criss-cross of lace tiers on the lower half of the dress.

$138.00, Anthropologie

Marie Aqua Table Lamp

I really heart this lamp by Thomas Paul. It feels both modern and Victorian at the same time. I like the curvy shape of the base and the cool pattern on the linen shade.

$306.00, 2Modern

Lay of the Land Dress

With a name like "lay of the land," I would have expected some kind of cartography dress. This lacy silk cocktail dress is so much better. (I think-- I'd have to see the cartography dress to know for sure.) I love all of pretty lace detailing all over the gown, especially the scalloped lace along the hem and neckline.

$298.00, Anthropologie

Love Bird Runner

This rug is great, and not just because it is covered in bird silhouettes (although, that is a big part of it). I like the colors too. Made of hand-tufted wool and rayon, the rug measures two and a half feet by seven feet. It would look great in a hallway. (Thanks, Heidi!)

$129.00, West Elm

Mod Flower Patchwork Quilt

This cotton quilt is pretty awesome. I like all of the cheerful, bright floral patterns. I've been trying to decorate my apartment with fun patterned fabrics. This would fit right in.

$120.00, Urban Outfitters

Lauren by Ralph Lauren Wool Flannel Skirt

I've been enjoying this Indian summer, and it's not quite time to slip into something like this grey wool skirt, but I do like it's long feminine lines. It looks great with tall boots.

$159.00, Macy's

Linea Paolo Sherilyn Sandal

Meow. Gold and black lace fabric with a black patent leather bow? These t-straps are hot. They do have a three and a half inch heel, but you could always wear them sitting down, right? You can also buy them in black.

$109.95, Nordstrom
