Viaddress Reviews Hand Job Coat Hook
Calm down, squares, the name of the Hand Job Coat Hook is supposed to be provocative, but the design is clever. All the gestures of the rainbow (thumbs up, wave, shake, ok, up yours, and rock) are represented in this hilarious hook display. The up yours bird will tells house guests to stop being such a prude and laugh a little. Great, that’s one less house rule for us to explain. Available at gmfboutique.com for only $160
Viaddress : Orrefors Light Shadows Bulb
New Year’s Eve party light suggestion: Don’t turn the wattage down, just turn the effects up with the Orrefors Light Shadows Bulb (Confetti and Swirl patterns pictured) by Ingegerd Råman. Sandblasted designs give us instant atmosphere. Available at finnishdesignshop.com for only $45
Get Colorblock Roller Skates with the help of Viaddress
These Colorblock Roller Skates - or some variation thereof – have been on our Christmas list since roughly 1989. Santa just does not seem to be getting the memo, so this year we’re buying ourselves a post-holiday present. It’s completely justifiable since these are exercise equipment, natch. Available at fredflare.com for $189
Viaddress.com : Marc by Marc Jacobs Jelly Mouse Flats
Sure, if there were actually torrential rains pounding down, we’d get out the galoshes. But for a light drizzle, our rubber footwear of choice would be these impossibly cute and frivolous mouse flats from the Marc by Marc Jacobs line. Not only are the toes adorned with little mouse ears and eyes and whiskers, there’s a tail pattern by the heel. Make walking fun again! (Also available in black, white, and red.). Available at endless.com for only $122
Viaddress : Superordinate Antler Sconce
Maybe all the other reindeer would let poor Rudolph join in reindeer games if his antlers glowed instead of his nose. That’s what the Superordinate Antler Sconce has us thinking at first. Then we got to thinking about how a sleek ceramic rendition of this common rustic decor trope is so much cooler than anything you would find in a ski lodge. Score. Available at rollandhill.com for only $360
Lug Life Cartwheel Overnight/Gym Bag : Viaddress.com
One of our New Year’s Resolutions is to go from only going to gym twice a week to take a spinning class with our friend, to going four times a week and incorporating some strength training. We’re pretty sure we can’t accomplish this unless we have a fabulous new gym bag, so we’re going to go ahead and order this Lug Life Cartwheel Overnight/Gym Bag, which looks pretty energizing to us. It features a separate compartment for our stinky sneaks and a holder or our yoga mat! Available at ebags.com for only $76
Get the Letter Ball Candles with the help of Viaddress
Our favorite part about these Letter Ball Candles from Perch is that while you can get them with just one letter, they’re customizable with up to three letters on each ball, so you would not have to buy a couple. Available at perchdesign.net for only $36 each
Viaddress : TKO Orlogi Slapper Crystal Leather Watches
The slap watch (you know, a slap bracelet with a timepiece) doesn’t have to be a crazy, neon rubber thing. For example, TKO Orlogi makes a line of Slapper Crystal Leather Watches, which come with interchangeable bands and are studded with Swarovskis. They come in a variety of colored leathers, but obviously we’re going to show you the leopard print one. Available at tkowatches.com for only $75
Get the Flexible Flyer Sled with the help of Viaddress
Now that it’s winter and the country is getting its share of snow, we think it’s about time to go break some bones. L.L. Bean’s Flexible Flyer Sled totally beats the trays we filched (and returned!) from our college cafeteria. Made to glide over snow, we’re excited to drive to the mountains and have a snow day. What, adults can’t enjoy a snow day once in a while? Get your sled on. Available at llbean.com for $88 on sale
