Antique Christmas Postcard, What2Wearwhere, Shop Our Friends

BEAUTY• BY: KAREN KLOPP AND HILARY DICK

In this season of giving, we love to shop our friends’ brilliant designs, fabulous jewelry and scrumptious delectables. Hilary has put together an assortment of some of her favorite items on her gift and wish list:

“I love a little sparkle and these beautiful jewelry pieces add just the right bling. And what fashionista wouldn’t love this gold Glamourpuss jacket. For the gentlemen in your life, a personalized golf score holder is just the ticket; a mahjong tote for the newest craze or a beautiful straw bag for those more beach inspired. Our friends have you covered. Merry Merry!!”
