On chilly days, it's often essential to keep your hands warm, while still being able to function. You know, selecting the right key on your key ring, checking your iPhone, giving the bird to someone who cuts you off in traffic, the usual.
One of the sure fire ways to keep your paws toasty is with glittens, a glove/mitten hybrid. They're nothing new, but after wearing off the fingers on my old gloves, and feeling like a dejected bear in my mittens, I've decided to for a pair of merinos from J Crew:
And if $25 for a pair of gloves is a bit out of your price range, because believe me, it's more than likely out of mine, you can try an adorably colorful and thrifty alternative, like these from Forever 21:

Recently, a friend of mine, knowing that I am anti-fur, asked my opinion on whether or not she should buy a vintage fur coat for chilly New York City nights. This got me thinking about faux fur. Maybe it isn't as warm as the real deal, but it's cruelty free, and will warm your shivering bones to their core.
From vest to coat, here are four faux fur options to keep you toasty in cooler months ahead:
Forever21 - Urban Faux Fur Vest, $24.80
Topshop - Leopard Print Faux Fur Coat, $160

Express - Faux Fur Cropped Coat, $168

Fred Flare - Faux Fur Isabelle Coat, $153

With only 12 shopping days left until Christmas, I thought it is good a time as any to post my wish list. This year, the economy has taken his (yes, his) toll on the reLYME family. So, we've agreed to simply bake cookies and lay off presents this year. However, a girl can still have a Christmas wish, no? And since I won't get my big impossible wishes--world peace, an end to the economic recession, for all of my friends and family to have faith in something and go vegetarian, or for orphans all over the world to get adopted, I'm going to post my material hopes. Without further ado, I present, a small piece of Beka's 2008 Wish List...and a little something for my puppy:
