It’s hard to believe that Christmas is almost here and in our house, Chanukah has arrived already. I’m certainly not finished nor has anyone I have spoken to in the last week completed or in some cases made that first ring at the register. Is it just me, or if I didn’t buy it online, in most cases I haven’t purchased it?! Now I certainly don’t want to pay shipping charges or deal with the traffic at the malls. So the solution is to find those quick and easy familiar places that we can get in and out of to finalize our gift lists! Read the rest of this entry »

Chic Holiday Gift for the Man…It’s Okay to be Square!
Friday, December 2nd, 2011 by Roz PactorLooking for a man’s gift….not as easy as we girls, who have zillions of things that we need and/or want. Here is an idea for something that is back on the Men’s fashion scene that your guy may not have the latest and greatest and that is a POCKET SQUARE. Yes, they’re back and look newest in novelty fabrications, particularly with a button in the corner. Guys are wearing them as a fashion accessory, not limited to the pocket of their Suit or Sportcoat but as an insert into a cool, new sportshirt or even the back pocket of a fun trouser.
Those shown are available at Q Clothier and Rye 51…stop by and pick up at least a couple. Makes for a great stocking stuffer!

A Little More Love
Thursday, February 11th, 2010 by RozChic Find: Two Cupid-Inspired Trunk Shows
If you haven’t found just the right Valentine trinket for your love, then you still have time to stop by Tootsies where you will fall in love with these designers’ romantic and versatile pieces.
First, is Claudia Lobao, who will be showcasing her newest collection today and tomorrow. Her work is recognized for reinventing crochet-like mesh jewelry. Consisting of semi-precious gemstones and gold plating, the designs are displayed in over 700 retailers worldwide. Her pieces have been worn on ABC’s Desperate Housewives and are a favorite of its star, Eva Longoria.
On Saturday, real crunch time, there will be Mirta Tummino, the former software saleswoman who has transitioned into a designer of multi-purpose jewelry that can take you from the office to fun week-end play. Her quietly polished aesthetic translates into versatile,
hand-made pieces like faceted rubies and sapphires strung on delicate 24 karat gold vermeil chains.
Place: Tootsies, 4045 Westheimer
Date: Claudia Lobao, Thurs, Fri. 2/11-2/12, 10-6
Mirta Tummino, Saturday, 2/13, 10-6

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010 by RozValentine is one of the few holidays where it can truly be said that it is about the thought and not necessarily, about the gift. Choices are made for the ones you love most with a true meaning attached, an expression of how much you care! So as you approach the final 10, sweet shopping days left before the Big Love Day, I wanted to share with each of you some unique ideas that I found while shopping around our town.
Here’s my 10 for the next 10……….

Chic Find……Holiday Shopping at Muse!
Wednesday, November 18th, 2009 by RozChic Finds………Holiday Shopping should be a-MUSE-ing!!!
Looking for a fun shopping experience for holiday gifts for your very special BFF’s or favorite familia and of course, pickup some very cool looks for YOU?!! Well, we found so much great fashion stuff on a recent re-visit to Muse Boutique in the Centre at River Oaks on West Alabama here in Houston, that we just had to share it!
Shown here from Cleobella at $165, this laser-cut leather clutch, available in great metallic and pop colors that opens up to a great organizer bag complete with slots for credit cards, ID, green bucks and a zipper pouch for just enough beauty necessities. Yes, it’s a fashion approach to an organizer clutch, yikes?! trust me it looks great!
From South African jewelry designer, Gillian Julius, are these chic, lightweight wrist candy of braided 100% waxed cotton rope with the look of leather. Trims of sterling silver, gold-plate or pearls complement any of the season’s newest looks. The price is $265 for metal trim and $305 for the Swarovski pearl and crystal trim and they come in multipes of 20! So much style for a not so over-the-top price?!!
To see more of Muse’s many great offerings, stop in at the Centre at River Oaks, 2411 West Alabama, 713-520-6873 for a visit or check out musehouston.com
