    When it comes to choosing a destination for the ideal romantic getaway (okay, for the hypothetical romantic getaway of my hopefully near future), I'm all about tropical settings, luxe amenities, and naturally, gorgeous hotel room pictures on the resort's booking site! After all, how can a hotel expect you to be seduced into staying somewhere you've never been before without incredible photos that promise even more breathtakingly beautiful views in person? And looking at Burasari Resort's online bookings, it's hard to believe that the accommodations just boast good looks. From their stylish modern decor and just-opened spa to their fine dining and tropical beach surroundings, Burasari is the ideal place to relax, unwind, and enjoy the tranquil Phuket coast in the lap of luxury. Check out the slideshow for some gorgeous photos of the resort!

    Looking to get away this holiday season? Well look no further! Avoid the winter chill with a warm, tropical getaway to Atlantis Paradise Island in the Bahamas! At Atlantis, you can enjoy all natural beauty of the Caribbean, splash around in an elaborate waterpark, swim with dolphins, try your luck at the casino, drink, dine and much more! Atlantis possesses one of the world's largest open-air marine habitats with over 50,000 sea animals, including a 14-acre dolphin habitat. Check out the Mayan Temple Lagoon with underwater tunnels surrounded by sharks or view the Ruins Lagoon filled with ancient Atlantis artifacts and over 20,000 fish. And a stay at Atlantis would be not be complete without experiencing AQUAVENTURE-- a non-stop water experience, consisting of extreme water slides, a mile-long river ride with rapids and waves, and special effects to boot. Atlantis offers miles of the white sand beaches of a Bahamian Island and if that's not enough, Paradise Lagoon of Atlantis offers swimming, sunbathing and a variety of water sports. This luxury hotel features 21 restaurants and 19 bars and lounges, plus a full casino with 90 table games including Blackjack, Mini-Baccarat & Baccarat, Craps, Roulette, Let It Ride and Caribbean Stud Poker. The rooms feature a variety of amenities such as full or French balconies, sitting areas and service-bars kept fully stocked, and a king-size or two queen-size beds, plus all rooms and suites offer terrace, harbor or water views--but I doubt you will stay too long in your room with all the amenities and activities Atlantis has to offer right at your fingertips!

    Bag Of The Week: The Nuti Ostrich Hobo

    image
    Pamela Pekerman on Jul 9, 2008 8:18 PM PDT
    Exotics are classic. Name one season when you'll get bored of a good python or karung shoulder bag? Never! The king of all skins, ostrich, is the choice for the crème de la crème (translation: uber-wealthy and uber-stylish) of bagistas; and Nuti is one of their go-to designers. For fall, Nuti gives us a lust-worthy top handle bag in sinful green or decadent dark brown. I like the semi-structured crescent shape €“ even though I'm really more of a satchel lover. This delightful, Italian-made shoulder bag is an ideal choice for an organized and low-maintenance gal. You're certainly not fitting folders €“ though a small notebook will work €“ in here and it would be painful to try and shove a laptop in here €“ obviously. With only one inner pocket, I recommend having one or two small clutches inside €“ one for makeup and one for tech gadgets that don't fit into the pocket. Organization aside, the vibrant suede lining is a joyful surprise. I'm sick of so-called "luxury" brands that have $2K, $3K+ price tag bags and don't give you the luxury feel inside. If you're looking for a great pre-pre-pre holiday treat, indulge in this handbag. The detailing on the handle is simply divine with a mix of snake, crocodile and minimal silver hardware. This bag will age graceful and become loose and loved with time. For my sweetheart: if you're reading this, the big milestone birthday is right around the corner! Hint, hint!!
