Stylish Wallets For Him

Star Stevenson — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 17:00:01 +0000

When was the last time your husband or Dad changed out his wallet? If he’s anything like the guys that I know, that would be… 5 years ago (or more!). Unlike us gals who switch out bags and wallets with the changing seasons, most guys tend to keep their wallets until they’ve basically disintegrated. Usually those poor wallets are packed to the brim with loose change, receipts, business cards and such. It’s a wonder those things even fit in their back pockets!

With Father’s Day coming up, it would be a good idea to give your dad or husband a new and stylish wallet to use for another five years…

D&G Dolce & Gabbana Bifold Wallet ($230 @ Saks Fifth Avenue) – Who says wallets have to be a boring black or brown?

Paul Smith Multistripe Leather Bifold Wallet ($210 @ Saks Fifth Avenue) – A fun striped wallet that’s sure to go with just about anything he wears.

Burberry Billfold w/ ID Window Wallet ($250 @ Nordstrom) – Sleek and chic with the classic Burberry check print.

Maybe a new wallet will get him to finally weed through and toss all of the unnecessary stuff in his current one. Oh and before your wrap it up, don’t forget to slip a little cash in there for good luck!

John Hardy Nusa Penida Bamboo Bangle

Star Stevenson — Fri, 29 May 2009 17:00:24 +0000

Bamboo is a type of grass that is lightweight and naturally hollow. Did you know bamboo is a symbol of longevity, strength and grace? According to Chinese philosophy the bamboo stem symbolizes the road to enlightenment while the parts of the stem (the small ‘bumps’) are the step stones along the path. No only is bamboo a popular plant for home decor it’s also showing up in jewelry designs as well.

Plus, when you purchase this bangle 10% of the retail price is put towards the planting of more bamboo. One bangle is equal to planting 16 bamboo plants. Pretty cool, right? Get it now at Saks Fifth Avenue for $495
