I still love the idea of a piece of jewelry with a lovely smelling surprise inside. Sephora is now carrying a cocktail ring with Michael Kors Hollywood fragrance in it. It’s a gold-toned ring with a big, pink gemstone. The fragrance is tucked beneath the stone.

Very Hollywood Solid Perfume Cocktail Ring
$40

Escape to Hollywood. Experience the essence of Hollywood with notes of sparkling mandarin, gardenia, and vetiver. It’s Fabulous. It’s Glamourous. It’s Very Hollywood.

I would love to get this ring for my daughter. She loves a big, bold, cocktail ring. The Very Hollywood ring is only available at Sephora.

For example, purchase Versace Bright Crystal, a fragrance that was inspired  ”…by a mixture of Donatella Versace’s favorite floral fragrances,” and get a free Versace tote. The tote is a translucent smoke tone, with white trim,  and  measures 20 in by 6.5 in by 13 inches.  To take advantage of the offer, chose the 3 ounce size Eau de Toilette and use the code VTOTE at checkout.

Versace & Kors Free Gifts With Purchase

This Michael Kors Heidi Large Leather Shoulder Bag is a great shoulder bag to use every day.  The overall design is simple but the details, such as the logo embossed gold buckles on the front and side give it a little something.   The rich colour, Espresso brown, is very pretty and will go with just about any outfit you can thrown on. If you don’t already have a brown bag, this one would make a wonderful choice. What I also like is the cinched front, it also looks like it would be very soft and smooshy. Although structured bags are my personal favourites, I have a soft spot for slouchy bags that puddle when they’re empty.  This Heidi Shoulder Bag (hmm, might it be named after Heidi Klum? ) measures a generous 9″H x 18″W x 9″D, so it will definitely hold a lot.

You can purchase this bag now at Nordstrom or directly through the Michael Kors official store. It’s a bit pricey at $1195 but it will look fabulous now and 10 years from now.

The product website, VeryHollywood.com, is what you would expect from a perfume by the same name. It’s glitzy, it’s glamorous and it’s quite easy on the eyes.  There you can interact, get all the inside scoop and enter contests.

Very Hollywood Michael Kors collection will include perfume sprays (1 oz, 1.7 oz and 3.4 oz sizes), Fabulotion (scented lotion, 5 oz) and a solid perfume cocktail ring. There’s also a limited edtion pen, with scented ink (wow!). Pricing will range from $45 to $85.  The Very Hollywood scent is described as sophisticated, seductive and luxurious. It blends the top notes of mandarin and bergamot with gardenia, jasmine and a drydown of amber, white moss and vetiver.

Is someone in your life very hollywood? This might be just the scent to give them. As stated this new Michael Kors fragrance will be available in September. Check your local department stores for actual release dates or sign up to be emailed at Sephora.com

MARC by Marc Jacobs Classic Q New Flap Wallet ($198) is shown here in a pretty lavender shade. It’s also available in black, faded aluminum (grey) and wine leather.  It’s a tri-fold wallet that’s roomy enough to store your cards, cash, checkbook and change. And a Marc Jacobs wallet wouldn’t be complete without the signature Marc Jacobs details; the logo plaque on the front and the fun print lining on the inside.

Another fun and functional fold over wallet is the Fulton Logo Clutch Wallet by MICHAEL Michael Kors ($178). It’s available in gunmetal (shown), purple, black and vanilla. The oversized gold tone MK logo is the only embellishment and it complements all of the leather shades beautifully. What I really love about this wallet is it doubles as a wristlet, perfect for those times when all you are the basics.

Both of these can be purchased at Nordstrom stores and online. Just like your handbags you should have a few wallets to choose from and rotate.

Fall Handbag Trends For Less

Does she need a new watch for Fall? Black watches are ultra chic. When paired with a crisp white ensemble, the watch will add that extra drama without overwhelming the outfit. This Michael Kors Diamond Watch ($990, originally $2200) would be a great choice. The black crocodile band is sleek while the pave diamonds around the face is glamorous.

Another great gift idea is this simple yet very elegant Antique Pendant Necklace by Fantasia by Deserio ($229).  It has the look of real diamonds but not the price tag. The 1.8 carat square-cut cubic zirconia with pave trim cubic zirconia pendant hangs from a 16″ chain. As far as costume jewelry goes, this necklace would work with any outfit or occasion.

Maybe you’re looking for a necklace for your teenage daughter or sister? This Juicy Couture Pave Icon Necklace ($49, originally $89) would look very cute for school or for a touch of every day glamour.
