Get your Chanel on... get your bank on the phone...

GO GO CHANEL... We're usually not huge fans of the saying, "Fake it until you make it," but we're still $1,700 short of that dream boucle boxy jacket from Chanel that we've been craving since childbirth. Therefore, we love White House Black Market's Embellished Sweater Jacket, with a classic fit, tight tailoring and delicately trimmed with glass pearls and chiffon. And for only $98, we think that might actually fit into our budget.

HAND-ME-DOWN.... Vicki Weaver-Payne has dry skin. No, let us rephrase... Vicki Weaver-Payne HAD dry skin. Now she lathers up in her very own Eight Body Moisturizer, created from a homemade recipe her mother had developed while working on the Tinker Air Force Base during WWII, suffering from the same painfully dry skin. The product is simple, lightly scented, and has multiple uses other than your every day lotion - from shaving cream to after-sun soother. Order online, starting at $24.

JUST ANOTHER STAY-CATION... Want This won't be getting away for the holidays, especially not with all the shopping in town we have left to do. However, we can still get the best of that "fresh from the tropics" hair that we crave, and not the sun-burnt crunchy kind either, with Profound Beauty's Holiday Style Kits. Mimicking the flattering effects that a change in climate can give to your tresses, the box sets are currently available for a limited time for $49 with free shipping.
