Radici: Just Some Beautiful Things

I am blessed to have some rather impossible people in my life -- friends who are so awesomely creative, it's easy to feel inadequate in their presence; an independent mother who buys what she wants, when she wants it; and a charming fiance who would rather I get something pretty for myself than buy a gift for him (I told you he was charming!). For these beloved people, I have discovered Radici, an online gift depot with tons of insanely cool and unique handmade whatnots for home, baby, him, her, and everyone else.

Many of the products are one-offs, most have just a few available, and none of them are mass-produced, which means the impossible people I love will love and treasure the gifts I give, from the gorgeous hand-dyed silk and wool Sunset Rose Scarf (£140) for mom, to the Official Toothfairy Kit (£12) for niece. Oh, and this so-perfect-for-a-boyfriend-cardy Green Scribble Brooch (£45) for me!

Valentine's Day Gift Guide

Valentine's Day is this weekend, so Style Goodies is hooking you up with a tried-and-true gift guide -- just leave this page up on your computer and your honey will get the hint!

Lingerie

Lingerie should not be reserved for {ahem} quality time with your mate. Start thinking of it as an essential style item -- the thing that touches your skin all day and makes you feel totally irresistible, even if you're the only one who knows you're wearing it!

Perfume

Sweet, fruity, floral, or spicy -- perfume is pretty much a no brainer when it comes to Valentine's Day gifts. Two great ideas: Love by Harajuku Lovers($30-45) -- it's fruity with a soft vanilla finish, and the name is so apropos; and Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker ($36-68) -- make it a girl's night and share this one with all your best girlfriends!

Candy

Instead of the garden variety box of chocolates from the drugstore indulge in something a little more exotic this V-Day. Try champagne-infused white or dark chocolate or spice things up with some Ancho chili or Ceylon cinnamon flavored truffles. Vosges Haute Chocolat offers these luxurious indulgences and more!

Say No to Drugs; Say Yes to Benefit Beauty Uppers

I've got a little brother and tons of little nieces, nephews, and cousins, so I'm constantly preaching the importance of eating all your veggies, being a good boy/girl, and, most importantly, saying no to drugs. But the clever minxes at Benefit Cosmetics have created some "uppers" I can actually condone.

Benefit Beauty Uppers ($68) is a collection of three of the brand's best-selling beauty pick-me-ups tucked neatly into a darling (I mean darling) canister that you can reuse. You'll find Dandelion, a powder that brightens and illuminates your face, Benetint, the rose-colored stain that put Benefit on the beauty map, and You Rebel Lite, a tinted moisturizer. It's an adorable gift, but make sure you get one for yourself too!

And while you're at it, order the newest Bad Gal to join the troop - Plum! BadGal Plum Mascara is an electrifying formula to brighten and beautify those pretty peepers. The purple hue will bring out that sexy little sparkle in your eyes.

Oh Baby!

My dear friend Nik is having a baby boy this summer and I am wildly excited about the impending arrival of my nephew. Spotted these so-genius goodies at Intuition that I can keep at my place for when baby comes to visit "Auntie Angel!"


I have horrible memories of changing my little brother and getting, um...sprayed. These soft, cone-shaped covers will guarantee I stay dry during diaper changes. Each pack comes with 10 wash-and-reuse teepees.

Pee-Pee Teepees, $25

There will be no shortage of hugs and kisses for the wee one but should I have to put him down for a sec (and I do mean a sec) these snuggly little blankets and toy puppy combo can keep him company.

Because they're just too cute!

Pink Elephant Gift Exchange

With summer looming you can bet your social calendar will soon be filled with dinner parties, cocktail hours, BBQs, and beach picnics. Instead of showing up with the requisite bottle of wine for the hostess, give her something she can use for the other fifteen bottles she'll be getting as gifts. How about this so-cute Pink Elephant Bottle Stopper ($9.95) from Z Gallerie:

Goodies from Carol's Daughter

There's a Carol's Daughter boutique in a nearby mall so I took advantage around the holidays, requesting yummy, whipped, moisturizing concoctions from friends and family. Fast forward to today (less than a month later) and I've got a jones for more of the good stuff - Ecstasy, Groove, Almond Cookie...hmmm, maybe cupid will plant a bug in my darling boy's ear.

These are new and totally divine! As the Almond Cookie Bath Bomb fizzes and bubbles in your warm tub, essential oils, natural butters, and detoxifiers melt into the water, making for a decadent, spa bath like nothing you've ever experienced!

Fruity and sweet with just a hint of Egyptian musk, Ecstasy Sea Salt Scrub, is an indulgent way to pamper your tired feet after a long day in heels. Avocado, jojoba, and wheat germ oil quench your dry itchy skin, while natural sea salt buffs your skin to a gorgeous glow.Beauty fast-fix: If you've got zero time (or money) for a manicure, simply clip your nails straight across and rub cuticle oil on them. This gives the appearance of clean, manicured, healthy nails. My cuticles get painfully dry and this Lemon and Jojoba Cuticle Oil really softens and protects.

Groove Body Butter is so intoxicating I would honestly drink it if I could! The blend of rich cocoa and shea butters drenches your skin in moisture and the sweet red currant, dewberry, and vanilla fragrance leaves you smelling like heaven!

Prisoner of Love - Win this Freedom Necklace!

Just leave a comment telling me the funniest, sweetest, most romantic, or most horrific Valentine's Day gift you've ever gotten and you could win! (Winner selected at random)
