I'm not one to wear typical going-out tops but this New York & Company Grecian Draped Tube Blouse ($31, originally $44) spoke to me for some reason. The shape is fresh, and the boatneck makes it the chicest party top I've seen. But this top is not all modest; the open side seams reveal a sexy tube top. It also comes in black, so get the color you like, and party like a goddess.

You probably heard that I'll be spending NYE in Thailand this year — I can't wait! Since Thailand is tropical paradise, I've been looking for an ethnic-inspired outfit to ring in the New Year. jds223 must have heard my call for help.

Note how the gold accessories evoke a dash of bohemian elegance. I'll take one of each, please.
Ferragamo has gone green. In an effort to preserve the Earth, the luxury brand has created a line of eco-friendly handbags named Eco Ferragamo. What makes this collection special is that the bags are made from a nontoxic tanning technique, are lined in handwoven hemp, and use dyes from natural elements such as tree bark. The results, seen below, are luxurious, biodegradable, and water-resistant bags. The Eco Ferragamo collection ranges from small totes to maxi hobos made in hues of tobacco brown, lemon yellow, and grapefruit pink. The bags retail from $1,190 to $1,890 and will be available come February.
Nicole Richie put on her favorite Fall accessory — a slouchy black beanie — and shopped alongside her man Joel Madden. She kept warm and looked cool in a dark green ribbed sweater, black platform wedge Balenciaga boots, and her signature oversize Chanel sunnies.

Abbie Cornish hosted the launch of the Spring 2009 Calvin Klein Collection launch in Sydney, Australia wearing a light lilac dress from Calvin Klein.
