Since you loved our first installment of Precious Pooch Purses, we decided to feature three more dapper doggie carriers. We know that both you and pup like to tote in style so here are a few more beautiful bags to choose from:
The Doggie Bag, by Ralph Lauren is their first dog carrier and will debut in this season's holiday collection. It has the same type of construction as their best selling Ricky bag and is made from luxurious black crocodile skin with brass hardware.
It won't be available online, but you can purchase it by calling (800)377-7656 or in person at either the Madison Avenue store in NYC or the Beverly Hills store. This puppy is $17,000.

I am fed up with this Chella Intensive Formula Eye Crema I bought recently. After applying it at night I would notice that if I rubbed my eyes little cream clumps would form leaving a mess around my eyes. This is so not cool. Then, I took it to Hawaii with me and this pretty, but chunky, packaging takes up too much room in my cosmetic bag and a thin layer of oil formed above the cream - from the humidity. I can't believe how much I spent on this eye cream and it turned out to be a major disappointment. This cream is $100 and available here although I don't obviously recommend it.
Can you all go fab finding to find me a new eye cream? Especially let me know why the ones you find are so fab. Be sure to come back and tell us that your Fab Finds are up, or just tag your Fab Finds with the words Eye Creams. To learn what a Fab Find is and how to make one, click here.

Adidas is no doubt one of the coolest sneaker brands of all time. Known for being both functional and fashionable, once plugged by Run DMC and having a song named after them: 'My Adidas,' this brand achieved superstar status. I have enjoyed their Originals collections since it launched a few years ago and they just created the Sleek Series. Adidas has slenderized classic shoes such as the Stan Smith, Country, and Superstar creating a more feminine version of these sneakers. Here are my choices; they range from $85-$90 and come in all sorts of funky color combos. Visit here to buy.
If you are looking for the perfect bridesmaid gift, a mani/pedi bridal shower thank you gift, or a little something special for a friend or relative who never skips their weekly salon visits, these portable flip flops make for an excellent present!

As hard as I try, even I can't keep up with every online sale. Fortunately for us web shoppers, there is always one going on, especially during the holiday season. Some of you have tipped me in about great online sales in the past. We have created a new feature where you can post a fab online sale you happen to come across. If it's a really good one, I'll post it to share the wealth, or rather, savings of wealth. You can find Sale Alerts here and submit a sale here. Let us know if you have any questions or problems.
Here's a goodie I found at allposters.com through a post by brian for 20% off at allposters.com. I love this classic photograph of Marilyn Monroe shot by Milton H. Greene - these make great gifts too!

Here's one more glittery gift set to add to your Party Accessories and Glam Glitter Makeup. These Bobbi Brown Glitter Tube Tints are brand new for the holiday season. I just can't resist lip glosses; it's becoming a real problem. Help!
This item, however, is a must have since it is a limited edition collection of three full-sized Bobbi Brown Glitter Lip Glosses. Individually, these usually cost $16 each, so getting three for $28 is a real steal.
These high shine, shimmery glosses also come in a clear zippered pouch making it very convenient to take them on an airplane. Buy them here for $28.
