Just because you traded your dinner date for a front-row runway seat this Valentine’s Day, it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t still drop hints for holiday gifts. Leave the package with the doorman, baby.
Our fabulous photographer, Rachel, and I were in Brooklyn last weekend. (We do occasionally venture off the island for the independent coffee shops and vintage finds.) Amidst the sea of flannel and Missed Connections, we stumbled upon a hidden gem in Williamsburg, Catbird. No, this is not a remake of the oddly charming late 90’s cartoon – only our newest jewelry obsession, perfect for a (G-rated) Valentine’s Day gift. The unique jewelry company makes a variety of goodies that are edgy, yet delicate, creating a look that’s more feminine then gothic.
As I tend to weigh every finger down with 2-4 rings like a traveling gypsy, I fell hard for the stackable letter rings. It’s the ideal way to pair your initials with your lover’s – coming in second place to romantic acts of arson.
Rachel also found something she couldn’t live without. This lovely little piece looks like a pocket watch but holds either lip-gloss or cream fragrances – more chic than a Chapstick and less cumbersome then packing your perfume. Perfection.
So get shopping to get smooching! And of course, this holiday is about love. (Love just always happens to be better with champagne.)
