Boots All Year Round

I stumbled upon these lovely boots and fell in love with them immediately.  These fully-lined weatherproof rain boots come in a fantastic range of patterns including animal prints, paisley, plaid, stripes and polkadots.  They are designed by Tamara Henriques who created her first patterned boots in 2000.  The boots can now be found in over 250 stores in the US alone and hundreds more worldwide.

The Bradgelina

Looking fabulous as usual, both Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were seen at the 61st Annual Cannes Festival Red Carpet in France recently. The couple is expecting their twins to come due 19 August this year.  Angelina was wearing a Grecian-style baby bump covering tunic with her handsome hubby

Another appearance in Cannes and Angelina looked gorgeous in a Nicole Miller’s strapless cathedral-print gown.   According to some sources, the couple left the children at home and joined other celebrity pals for a late night dinner.

This is a great gift for women who already have everything.  It is the ultrasonic jewelry cleaner which was rated the best in the world by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute.  This cleaner uses normal tap water and sends ultrasonic waves through the water to remove dust particles and dirt from jewelry.   It has a 16 oz. stainless steel tank and an easy-to-read maximum fill line.  It also has a three-minute auto-shutoff setting and a viewing window with a light which illuminates the interior while in use.  This jewelry cleaner is also suitable for precious metals and gems, waterproof watches, CDs, dentures, and eyeglasses.   You can find this great gift at Hammacher.com.
