The iconic Lisa Kline logo has gone bling bling. White Trash Charms's Gold Vermeil Mudflap Mini Necklace for Lisa Kline, $88, is a tad too ghetto-fabulous for my taste. I imagine a rough and tough girl wearing it while riding shotgun in her boyfriend's 18-wheeler. I prefer to wear simple jewels and take public transportation. Do you agree?

This year, the White House's holiday theme of "Shine, Give, Share," celebrates the holiday spirit through decor ranging from tabletop trees made from recycled aluminum to a 400-pound White House Gingerbread House. I recently chatted with White House florist Laura Dowling about the inspiration for the theme and tips on getting the look at your own home.

CasaSugar: What was the inspiration for this year’s decor?
Laura Dowling: This year’s theme is inspired by the First Lady’s message of giving to others and community service. Additionally, a very important element of this year’s holiday theme is the recognition and support of America’s military families. Visitors will see special decorations in the East Entrance and in the Blue Room that are designed to honor our nation’s service men and women and their families.

CasaSugar: What are some of the ideas that homeowners can use this holiday season, inspired by the White House decor?
Laura Dowling: Some of the most interesting ideas are on display at the White House use materials that are inexpensive or free – and would be easy for people to try at home.
