A Modern Girl's Guide To Etiquette...and Fish House Punch


Whether or not you're into the costume aspect of Halloween, nothing beats a good party with a festive cocktail to celebrate and toast all of the ghouls and goblins in your life. Even better is enjoying a drink with an intriguing name. Enter: Fish House Punch (yes, you read correctly). Rum, cognac and peach brandy = yum. It's got an orange-ish tint to suit the traditional orange-and-black holiday theme, so, something this divine deserves to be served with equally fantastic color-coordinated coasters. Visit Two Social Graces for the recipe details and additional tips for being fabulously informed and etiquette-enlightened in today's modern world.

Utility Home coasters, set of 16 disposable coasters for $10 or 2 sets for $18.

Must-Have : American Crew citrus-mint hair paste


In search of something short of glue to hold my unruly bangs in place as I grow them out, I was asking all of my friends for styling product recommendations. Tigi's Manipulator came up twice as a favorite, which sent me to every salon and drugstore in the area...to no avail. Desperate for something to tame these bangs, I reached for American Crew's Citrus Mint hair paste. Yes, I know this is marketed to men as a stylish grooming line, but this product works and smells absolutely divine. Orange, lime, peppermint and spearmint. Great hold, washes out easily and solved my bang dilemma spot-on.

Target, Capezio, JCrew and Danskin all carry them for under $10...an inexpensive trend everyone can work with!

Office Fashion : Instant Desk Makeover


In my opinion, no matter where you work, your office should reflect a little bit of your personal taste. Your work area deserves to be as fashionable as you are, yes?

Afterall, if you're spending a good portion of your day on the computer or at your desk, you might as well have some pretty things to look at. Here's one item that can quickly transform any cluttered desktop into something more refined and sophsiticated.

Moyen's mirrored container does double duty serving as an elegant vase for when he sends flowers to your office as well as a chic mail holder (fashionable and functional). Love it!
