Susan Farber ‘Mezzo Sofia’ Clutch

‘Expect to be noticed’.

That’s the tagline for Susan Farber’s Collection. Full of Italian flair, Farber’s handbags are crafted of the finest Italian leather, exquisite details, and rich colors. The ‘Mezzo Sofia’ is a gorgeous, chocolate brown ruched leather clutch with adorable acid evil leather tassels. A dainty vine print paints a pretty canvas atop the centrally gathered leather.

It’s a small statement piece, but it’s sure to get you noticed, big time.

Mackage ‘Monica’ Coat

Basic black just got a little less basic.

Spice up your bland cold-weather wardrobe with this snazzy black coat from Mackage. Mackage combines high fashion with outerwear to create statement-making coats. The ‘Monica’ is a funnel-necked, A-line coat that accentuates your figure with a cinched, leather waist belt. Ruched bell sleeves and a full bottom offer a feminine feel, and the pimped out leather pockets and gold belt buckle are sleek and edgy.

Who’s the mack? You, in not-so-basic black.

$630, Big Drop NYC.

Tashkent by Cheyenne ‘Cole’ Ankle Boots

For all the turkey, stuffing, and mac and cheese you’ll be eating, it’s best to rock a super–sized sweater and stretchy tights on Thanksgiving Day.

You may be channeling your inner Peggy Bundy, but your entire outfit doesn’t have to skimp on style. The Tashkent ‘Cole’ Ankle Boots are a cute addition to your holiday look. The mod footwear is made of a suede–upper, with an ankle tie, side cutout, and a fur sock lining. The wedge heel gives you height, which will draw attention away from your jam-packed plate, (and your full stomach).

Just make sure that sweater isn’t horizontally striped.

Tarte ‘Gilt Trip’ Lip Gloss Set

I’m feeling gilt-y already.

A precious gold box, lined in a regal purple, with a self-indulgent mirror, encloses an array of gleaming precious metals. The ‘Gilt Trip’ lip gloss set by Tarte contains six, shimmery, gold-speckled lip glosses to add shine to your holiday season, as you travel from one party to the next. Colors like Golden Champagne, and Golden Peach, will take you through the pre-party; Golden Red and Golden Magenta escort you to the party; and save Golden Reddish Bronze and Golden Pink for the after–party.

Where you’ll probably have something else to feel gilt-y about.

$28, Tarte

Alek Wek ‘Cecile Medium Pebble’ Tote

Like the supermodel herself, Alek Wek’s ‘Cecile Medium Pebble’ tote carries itself with class.

This basic black oversized bucket, reminiscent of an attaché, is simply ornamented with a dashing duo of horizontal zippers. A simple adjustable strap, polished brass buckle, and sparse stud detail makes this shoulder bag highly sensible and exceedingly desirable. The line, Wek1933, was loosely inspired by her late father’s briefcase and simplicity can certainly be found throughout all the pieces, particularly the Cecile.

Which is likely to become as sought after as its designer.
